Good sharing, the Phacoemulsification is to treat cataract by remove it and replace it with artificial lens. You can also choose your artificial lens as it can be monofocal or multifocal, and with or without astigmatism correction depending on your eye. In short, this is a procedure that removes the cataractous lens and corrects any refractive power at the same time. For detail visit:
