What is a Refractive Lens Exchange?

Refractive lens exchange (RLE) is a surgical procedure designed to correct refractive errors in individuals who may not have significant cataracts. During RLE, the eye’s clear natural lens is removed and replaced with an artificial IOL, similar to cataract surgery. However, in RLE, the primary aim is to improve vision by changing the eye’s focusing power and reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses.

Who Can Benefit from RLE?

RLE can benefit many individuals, including those with:

  • Nearsightedness (myopia)
  • Farsightedness (hyperopia)
  • Astigmatism
  • Presbyopia
  • Or those who aren’t candidates for LASIK

Our team can assess your specific visual needs and determine if RLE is a suitable solution for you.
