HUNTINGTON, NY, June 23, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The now Presbyopic baby boomer generation, who are having trouble reading small print, are increasing demand for lens-based surgical implants for vision correction. Precision Eye Care has fully embraced all new technologies which enables us to find a solution for practically every refractive error.
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is basically the same surgical procedure as cataract surgery. Through tiny incisions, the natural lens of the eye is removed, and the surgeon inserts accommodative or multifocal IOLs to correct refractive errors. The majority of patients who receive Refractive Lens Implants have reduced and even eliminated their need for glasses or contact lenses for nearly all of their daily tasks.
"Most patients are unaware that Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) or Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) is available, and is an alternative to LASIK, Intralase, PRK, LASEK, and Epi-Lasik vision correction. In Cataract patients who are already Presbyopic, Refractive Lens Exchange also makes a lot of sense." says Dr. Davis. "Surgery on the cornea does not address the underlying aging lens changes and is therefore transient. RLE can last a lifetime!"
Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) option is greater than ever as an affordable surgical alternative for patients over 50 who want to eliminate or decrease their dependence on glasses or contacts. Also, Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) patients have the same choice of lens implants as cataract surgery patients. These include traditional monofocal lenses, multifocal lenses (ReSTOR, ReZoom), toric lenses to treat astigmatism and accommodating lenses (Crystalens).
"Refractive IOLs can enable patients to see at both near and distance; eliminating or reducing the need for glasses," adds Dr. Davis. "This procedure lasts a lifetime and the patient who has this procedure will never have to worry about cataracts in the future. The acquisition of the new Femtosecond Laser which uses a computer controlled laser to do the hardest parts of the surgery makes the procedure safer than ever."
Dr. Davis and the staff at Precision Eye Care have both extensive cataract experience and extensive cornea-based refractive surgery experience, assuring patients the highest quality eye surgery available in Huntington, Long Island, NY.
Knowing the treatments that are available and which ones are going to bring the best results that the patient wants is increasingly important. At Precision Eye Care, the physicians will help you decide which procedure may be right for you.
