Eye Surgery Errors Lawyer - d'Oliveira & Associates
Eye surgery has become increasingly popular. Common types of procedures include LASIK surgery, retina surgery, and cataract surgery. LASIK surgery helps to eliminate the need to wear contacts or eyeglasses by altering a person’s vision. Retina surgery consists of a variety of procedures depending on the eye condition that the person receiving the surgery may face. Cataract surgery is performed when the lens over the eye becomes cloudy, making is impossible for a person to see clearly. The cloudy lens is replaced during cataract surgery.
If an eye doctor incorrectly performs eye surgery, the results can be devastating. A person may lose or be severely limited in their ability to see for an indefinite period of time. Such loss of sight may occur in either one or both eyes. Injury to the optic nerve may also result from eye surgery. The optic nerve, sometimes called the cranial nerve II, transmits visual information from the retina to the brain. During eye surgery or facial surgery, if the optic nerve is cut, you can go blind if the interruption is not immediately recognized and corrected.
Normally, eye surgeries and procedures are safe when proper care and attention is taken. However, devastating effects can result to a patient who experiences an eye surgery error. If you or a loved one has been the victim of eye surgery error, you need a law firm that can handle these cases.
