Proven Permanent Correction For Presbyopia…

And You’ll NEVER Need Cataract Surgery!

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is a state-of-the-art vision correction procedure designed to enhance your eyesight and reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses. By replacing your eye's natural lens with a premium intraocular lens (IOL), RLE can provide you with clearer vision and greater freedom.

Find out if you're a candidate:

RLE is ideal for individuals who:

  • Are Aged 40 and Above: Perfect for those experiencing blurry vision due to refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness).
  • Have Early Cataracts: Address both cataracts and refractive errors simultaneously.
  • Suffer from Presbyopia: Improve your ability to see up close, at intermediate distances, and far away with a multifocal IOL.
  • Seek Alternatives to LASIK: For extreme refractive errors where LASIK may not be suitable.

Thank you! Our LASIK counselor will be in touch. Please reach out to lasik@eyeguys.com with any questions. Congrats on starting your LASIK journey!

What To Expect

  • Quick & Comfortable: RLE is performed in our in-office surgery suite in about 7 to 10 minutes per eye. Both eyes can often be treated on the same day.
