Lens exchange: Replacing your lens with an artificial lens
Refractive lens exchange (RLA) is mainly used for patients with cataracts who also have severe myopia or hyperopia or presbyopia and astigmatism.
Through a small incision in the cornea, the natural lens (already cloudy in cataracts) is removed and a lens made of highly biocompatible plastic (acrylate) is inserted instead.
We determine which method of lens surgery is most suitable for you in a personal consultation, including an ophthalmological examination by a specialist.
Risks & side effects
The chances of success with a clear lens extraction are generally considered to be very high and reliable. Nevertheless, there are general surgical risks, which all patients are informed about in a personal consultation.

After the age of 40, most of us need reading glasses (even if we have never needed glasses before)! Independence from reading glasses is achievable, but not all eyes can be treated. Make an appointment to find out if you are suitable for presbyopia correction:
