What is a Cataract?
Cataracts develop when the natural lens inside the eye becomes cloudy. As a result, your vision may appear blurred, dim, or yellowed. Although cataracts are common with age, they can interfere with everyday activities like reading, driving, and enjoying hobbies.

We use precision imaging and modern lens technology to ensure accurate results. Options include monofocal, toric, and multifocal lenses — chosen based on your unique visual needs and lifestyle.

How is Cataract Surgery Performed?
Cataract surgery is safe, fast, and effective.
First, Dr. Mihlstin creates a tiny incision in the eye. Then, she removes the cloudy lens. Finally, she replaces it with a clear IOL that restores your vision.
The entire procedure usually takes 10–15 minutes per eye. Most patients go home the same day and notice improvement within 24–48 hours.
Recovery and Aftercare
We proudly serve Rogers City, Alpena, and Oscoda, offering high-tech surgery with the care of a local practice.
