What Is Refractive Lens Exchange?

RLE is a modern alternative to LASIK for people in their 40s, 50s, and beyond whose vision is changing due to presbyopia (age-related near vision loss). The natural lens in your eye is replaced with a premium artificial lens (IOL), customized for your eyes and your goals.

Unlike LASIK, RLE also prevents cataracts from developing—giving you both immediate clarity and long-term peace of mind.

Is RLE Right for You?

  • 👓 Over 40 and struggling with near vision?
  • 👓 Tired of glasses or bifocals?
  • 👓 Not a LASIK candidate?
  • 👓 Want to avoid cataracts in the future?
