Say goodbye to cloudy, blurred vision. Experience high-quality, timely cataract care in private surgical centres equipped with advanced technology.
We offer private cataract surgery in a supportive, patient-focused environment—where you're seen, heard, and cared for without the wait.
Visit your family doctor or optometrist for an eye exam. If a cataract is diagnosed, have the referral sent to iCare Surgical Centre.
Meet with a cataract specialist at iCare to review your referral. The doctor will assess the severity of your cataract and discuss suitable intraocular lens (IOL) options tailored to your vision needs.
Detailed measurements of your eyes are taken to determine the most appropriate lens implant for you. You'll also receive instructions to prepare for surgery.
Your cataract surgery will be performed at a private surgical centre. The procedure typically takes 15 minutes, and patients return home the same day.
Post-op care includes a same-day checkup, followed by assessments at 1 week, 1 month, and 6 months to ensure proper healing and long-term success.
At iCare Surgical Centre, your private cataract surgery is guided by precision and expertise. Using advanced diagnostic tools like laser biometry and corneal topography, we ensure accurate measurements to select the ideal intraocular lens for your unique vision. Performed by experienced surgeons in a state-of-the-art private facility, the procedure often allows for same-day surgery for both eyes, ensuring a smooth and efficient recovery.
After surgery, our team provides comprehensive care instructions, including prescribed eye drops and protective eyewear to support a smooth recovery.
Cataract surgery is more than restoring vision – it’s an opportunity to enhance it. Once the clouded natural lens is removed, it’s replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). While standard lenses restore basic vision, advanced IOLs can improve vision at multiple distances, often reducing or eliminating the need for glasses.
Our team works closely with patients to explore lens options tailored to their lifestyle and visual goals.

Dr. Bhatti is a very patient centric specialist. He was determined to solve a problem I was having, and he did, making my injection appointment absolutely painless! I am usually in and out of the clinic in an hour. I highly recommend ICare Surgical Centre.Posted on Brian Oickle14 August 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In Nov 27 2023, Dr Bhatti and his team removed cataracts from my right eye. I choose the "top of the line" replacement lens. The result was excellent. I was thrilled. Then in July 3 2025 Dr Bhatti and team reoved cataracts from my left eye. This operation took a bit longer to settle...but then I realized that both eyes were performing in unision. For the first time since when I was 14, I could function without glasses. I simply needed corrective lenses for close reading of small print, which i took care of by purchasing 3 sets of reading glasses from Costco for $20 for the 3 sets. I am thrilled with the positive results. I will turn 80 in 2 months and never thought I would be glasses free for every day vision. Dr Bhattis entire team were very professional and thorough in ensuring I was well taken care of! THANK YOU!!Posted on Linda Dore3 August 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had both of my cataracts corrected by Dr. Bhatti. Although the clinic is very busy I was amazed at how efficiently the clinic was run. Dr. Bhatti performed both of my surgeries quickly and efficiently. He is personable and he's a good surgeon. You're safe in his hands.Posted on GM Chambers28 July 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Everything went extremely well. Would recommend Dr Bhatti to everyone.Posted on Linda Lamarche24 July 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went for cataract surgery with dr.bhatti. To say I was terrified is an understatement. Dr. bhatti is calm and reassuring. Had several appointments and not once did my husband and myself see the staff hurriedly or frustrated with patience. I would strongly recommend Dr.Bhatti for listening and reassuring without over talking. All questions were answered merci Dr Bhatti and staff.
