This is the first time in medical history where cataract patients now have the unique ability to ADJUST & PREVIEW their vision until it meets their personal needs and lifestyle requirements. Once a patient is fully satisfied with their custom vision, it can be permanently locked in.
Our new Light Adjustable Lens is the perfect alternative for middle-aged patients considering LASIK to reduce or eliminate their need for reading glasses or bifocals. It’s also ideal for patients 60+ who are experiencing changes in the lenses of their eyes due to natural aging and cataract development. The Light Adjustable Lens is also becoming the lens of choice for patients undergoing cataract surgery who have previously had refractive surgery procedures like RK or LASIK.
Currently, patients who are not receiving an LAL lens cannot ‘trial’ their vision to determine how well they will see under various light conditions, work environments or conducting their normal daily activities. Until now, patients undergoing lens replacement procedures like Refractive Lens Exchange or cataract surgery were given off-the-shelf intraocular lenses (IOL) based on pre-operative measurements and predictions.
This ‘first-ever’ opportunity allows patients to ‘test-drive’ their vision for accuracy until they are fully satisfied with their result. To learn more about the RxSight Light Adjustable Lens, please contact our main office at 800-628-EYES.
