As pertains to cataract surgery, the 'technique' of using a sharp, narrow diameter instrument (such as porcupine quill) to push the cataract out of its location behind the iris dates back to pre-historic times.

And it wouldn't surprise me if this is still used by people groups with no access to modern medical care.

Modern cataract surgery uses a technique which emulsifies the cataract while at the same time pulling out the emulsion, and then injecting a focusing lens in the voided space.

(yeah, there's a lot more to it than that, but a straightforward cataract surgery takes less than 10 minutes with a skilled surgeon)
