>>LEARN MOREClear Lens Exchange (CLE) is most commonly performed to treat higher levels of farsightedness in patients over the age of forty. The optical results are superior to laser vision correction (ie. LASIK or PRK) for these higher corrections. CLE may also be used to correct higher levels of nearsightedness and may be fine-tuned with laser vision correction if a small refractive error remains.
CLE invloves removing the eye's lens, just like in cataract surgery. This is done with a special ultrasound instrument and may be accompanied by eyedrop anesthesia. A flexible synthetic lens implant of the proper power is then placed inside the eye through an extremely small incision to correct the refractive error. This outpatient procedure is tyically pain free, takes 20 minutes or less to perform, and can be completed without sutures. Visual recovery is quite rapid. As with LASIK, most clear lens exchange patients are able to return to work the day following their procedure.
