Cataract extraction

Surgical removal of a cataract from the eye.
In Extracapsular cataract extraction the cataract  alone is removed, leaving the lens capsule behind to support the remaining lens tissue.
Intracapsular cataract extraction is the removal of the whole lens, including the capsule that surrounds it.
