Do you want to achieve a crystal-clear vision that lasts a lifetime? Are you tired of dealing with the hassle of glasses and contacts? You could be a candidate for refractive lens exchange, a modern vision correction procedure that's often recommended as an excellent LASIK alternative.
Request an AppointmentRefractive lens exchange (RLE) is a vision correction procedure that works by removing the natural lens of your eye and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) that's set to your desired prescription needs. The procedure can correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia, and can be customized to your specific lifestyle and vision goals, depending on the IOL you choose.
A unique benefit of RLE is that it can actually prevent cataracts from forming in the future, which makes it a great choice for patients 40 years and older who are worried about developing them as they age. This is because cataracts form on the natural lens of the eye, which is removed and replaced with an IOL during the procedure. In fact, the procedure is almost identical to cataract surgery, but performed to correct refractive errors rather than treat cataracts.
After RLE, most patients enjoy complete freedom from glasses and contacts and reliable, high-definition vision during all of their favorite activities!
