If you aren't seeing the color in your flowers or your birds, you probably have cataracts.
If you have always had an astigmatism, the good news is now you can take care of both during catarct surgery. It's the smart choice because if you only choose to deal with your cataracts, you'll still have to wear glasses to deal with your astigmatism.
What is Clear Lens Replacement?
Clear Lens Replacement, also referred to as Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE), is a procedure performed on an outpatient basis, aimed at minimizing or completely removing the need for glasses. RLE serves as an alternative to laser vision correction and other refractive surgeries. It addresses nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even presbyopia by utilizing advanced intraocular lens implants (IOLs). This procedure involves replacing the eye's natural lens with an artificial lens (IOL) to enhance vision clarity, thereby reducing or eliminating the necessity for reading glasses, or bifocals. And, you will never develop cataracts.
