Laser procedures after cataract surgery and for glaucoma offer targeted, efficient treatments that restore and preserve vision with minimal downtime. For post-cataract patients, laser enhancement (commonly YAG laser capsulotomy) typically takes 10–15 minutes in-office and resolves clouding of the posterior capsule. For glaucoma, selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a quick, often 15–30-minute outpatient procedure that lowers intraocular pressure by improving fluid outflow; it can delay or reduce the need for daily medications and has a favorable safety and cost profile over time. Both services are unique for their speed, low complication rates, and ability to be performed in-office with topical anesthesia, offering patients rapid recovery and measurable visual or pressure benefits.
