Refractive Lens Exchange

Refractive lens exchange is a surgical procedure to replace the natural lens of the eye with an artificial lens. The natural lens is responsible for focusing light onto the retina, but it can become cloudy or lose its ability to focus properly as we age. RLE can correct a variety of vision problems, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

RLE is typically suitable for individuals who are over the age of 40 and who have stable vision. It is also a good option for individuals who are not good candidates for LASIK or other refractive surgery procedures.

Risk Level

RLE is a low-risk procedure, but there are some potential complications, such as infection, bleeding, and dry eye. It is important to discuss the risks and benefits of RLE with your surgeon before making a decision.

Treatment Basis

RLE is usually performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the same day. However, in some cases, an overnight stay in the hospital may be necessary.

Preparation and Recovery

Before RLE, your surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for the surgery. This may include stopping certain medications and avoiding contact lenses.

After RLE, you will need to wear an eye shield for several days to protect your eye. You may also experience some eye discomfort and blurred vision. However, most people are able to return to their normal activities within a few days of surgery.
