27 May Refractive Lens Exchange
Struggling with Your Vision? There may be an alternative to wearing glasses or contacts.
If you’re in your 40s and tired of relying on glasses or contacts—or if reading glasses are becoming a constant hassle—Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) could be right for you. It’s also an option for those who have been told they’re not candidates for LASIK.
At Precision Eyes, we offer RLE in our QUADA-certified, in-office surgery center. This approach allows us to provide a comfortable and efficient alternative to glasses, contacts, LASIK, and cataract surgery.
What Is Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)?
Refractive Lens Exchange is a vision correction procedure that replaces your eye’s natural lens with an advanced intraocular lens (IOL). This can significantly reduce your dependence on glasses or contacts and addresses the issue of cataracts before they develop by removing the natural lens.
Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, RLE works by replacing the lens inside the eye, improving clarity and reducing reliance on corrective eyewear.
Who Might Consider RLE?
RLE may be a good option if:
-
You’re over 40 and noticing changes in near vision.
-
You have a high prescription and are looking for a long-term vision correction approach.
-
You’ve been told you’re not a LASIK candidate due to thin corneas or other factors.
-
You’d prefer a procedure that addresses both refractive error and the future risk of cataracts.
-
You’re interested in exploring alternatives to glasses and contacts.
