Dr. Manrique De Lara takes a personalized approach with cataract surgery. He begins the procedure with a small incision in the eye, through which he extracts the clouded lens, or cataract. Next, he replaces the cataract with an advanced intraocular lens implant (IOL) to correct for other existing conditions. Dr. Manrique De Lara uses multifocal Panoptix and ReZoom IOLs, which are able to correct for nearsightedness and age-related (presbyopia). As a result, patients achieve clearer vision and eliminate or reduce their need for eye glasses or contact lenses.
In addition, Dr. Manrique De Lara offers vision correction with Visian implantable collamer lense (ICL) to treat myopia. He also performs Intacs corneal implantation, glaucoma surgery, conductive keratoplasty and iLASIK. His facility is one of the few in the Rio Grande Valley area to have implemented the Liebert System, which maintains optimal temperature and humidity for the lasers to yield higher levels of accuracy and safety.
