Refractive Lensectomy or clear Lens extraction

Refractive Lensectomy, or clear lens extraction, is the technique of removing the natural lens and replacing it with an intraocular lens that gives improved focus. This technique is based on the same principle as modern day cataract surgery. Lens surgery is the most commonly performed operation  in the world and carries a good safety profile.

For people over 40 years of age who are considering refractive surgery, those who are longsighted and those who are beginning to show signs of cataract development, Lensectomy is the most logical procedure for correction of refractive error.

A recent advance making this option more popular is the development of accommodative IOL’s which reduce a patients reliance on reading glasses as well as correcting distance vision.
