I recently performed a cataract surgery on one of my patients and the results were great. She is now enjoying a glasses-free life and couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

On this day, November 29th, let’s also take a moment to acknowledge a historical milestone in the world of ophthalmology. Sir. Dr. Harold Ridley, a doctor who invented and implanted the first intraocular lens after World War 2 in 1949. This groundbreaking invention has since changed the lives of countless cataract sufferers, allowing them to see the world more clearly.

Reflecting on this historic moment, it’s incredible to see how innovation continues to shape the landscape of eye surgery and contribute to the prevention of blindness at Assunta Hospital Malaysia. Let’s celebrate the progress made and express gratitude to the brilliant minds in the field who dedicate their efforts to improving vision and changing lives.
