Clear Lens Exchange

Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) is an advanced vision correction procedure that replaces the eye’s natural lens with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This innovative and safe approach corrects common visual errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism—offering a life-changing alternative for those who may not be ideal candidates for laser eye surgery.

Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, CLE replaces the natural lens itself to restore clear vision. This makes it particularly beneficial for individuals over 40 experiencing presbyopia (need for reading glasses) or early signs of cataracts. By proactively replacing the lens, CLE not only improves vision but also prevents cataracts from developing in the future.

Why Choose Clear Lens Exchange?

As we age, the natural lens and muscles in our eyes becomes less effective, making it harder to see clearly at a near and increasing the need for reading glasses. Clear Lens Exchange offers a permanent solution by replacing the natural lens with an advanced IOL. This reduces or eliminates the need for glasses while ensuring that cataracts never form, allowing for a lifetime of clear, sharp vision. Patients that don’t want the hassle of glasses and contacts should consider CLE as their eyes age.

Understanding Presbyopia

Presbyopia is a natural part of aging that affects nearly everyone, typically beginning around age 35 and progressing over the next 20 to 30 years. As it develops, you may notice increasing difficulty seeing up close—often requiring reading glasses for small print and everyday tasks.

Clear Lens Exchange offers a long-term solution, helping you regain clear vision without the constant need for corrective lenses.
