What is the Light Adjustable Lens?
The Light Adjustable Lens (LAL) is an innovative intraocular lens designed to revolutionize vision correction after cataract surgery or lens replacement. Unlike traditional lenses, the LAL can be fine-tuned after implantation, allowing your doctor to customize your vision based on your unique needs. This advanced technology ensures sharper, clearer sight and significantly reduces the need for glasses or contact lenses, giving you the freedom to enjoy life with confidence and clarity.
How Does the Light Adjustable Lens Work?
Manufactured by RxSight™, the LAL is crafted from a special photosensitive material. After surgery, your vision is refined during the follow-up appointments using UV light treatments, ensuring you achieve the clearest, most accurate vision possible.
Advantages of the LAL:
- Tailored Vision: Customized adjustments to suit your lifestyle.
- Increased Precision: Unmatched clarity compared to standard lenses.
- Reduced Dependence on Glasses: Enjoy a more independent lifestyle.
Who is a Candidate for LAL?
The Light Adjustable Lens may be ideal for individuals who:
- Are you planning cataract surgery or refractive lens exchange?
- Desire personalized vision correction to reduce their need for glasses.
- Have healthy eyes without serious conditions like advanced glaucoma or macular degeneration.
The Light Adjustable Lens Journey: How Does It Work
- Lens Placement:
- The LAL is implanted during a straightforward cataract or lens replacement procedure, usually lasting 15-20 minutes.
- Healing Phase:
- Initial vision improvement occurs within days, but the real magic happens during adjustment appointments.
- Vision Optimization:
- Over a few weeks, your doctor fine-tunes your vision through UV light adjustments, giving you unparalleled clarity.
