If you own one or more pairs of glasses or struggle with contact lenses, vision correction with refractive lens exchange may be the ideal solution to correct your vision permanently.

Surgical correction of distance and near vision using new intraocular lens technology is possible to achieve freedom from glasses. If you are under 65 years old a minimally invasive procedure using an ICL implant can be an excellent option to correct your vision. Refractive lens exchange is suitable for almost anyone over the age of 45. Depending on your age, refractive lens exchange may be a better and more permanent form of vision correction than laser refractive surgery such as LASIK, SMILE or PRK. Refractive lens exchange or ICL surgery can provide outstanding visual results, restoring distance, intermediate and near vision without glasses or contact lenses.

  • Pain-free lens exchange surgery or reversible ICL surgery using a no-needle technique

  • Minimally invasive surgery provides a rapid visual recovery

  • Same-day surgery. For your convenience, have surgery for one or both eyes on the same day

Do you have a history of eye surgery?

If you have a history of laser or cataract surgery and still rely on glasses, there are excellent surgical options to help improve your vision permanently.

For advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD), new lens technology is available that may help restore some near vision.
