Lens treatment

Adéu, stiff lenses.Lens Exchange

The lens inside your eye stiffens with the years. A lens exchange replaces it with a permanent artificial one, and corrects near and distance vision together.

What it is

The lens comes out. A new one goes in.

From around forty-five, the lens inside every eye stiffens and stops focusing up close. It happens to everyone, glasses or no glasses, and no laser reaches it: a laser reshapes the cornea, and this is happening behind it.

A lens exchange replaces that lens with a permanent artificial one, through a small opening. It is the same operation as modern cataract surgery, performed many thousands of times a year.

Because the natural lens is replaced, a cataract can never form later.

It is permanent. That is exactly why the conversation happens with a doctor, unhurried.

How it works

Three steps, Lens Exchange.

  1. The opening is made

    A small opening at the edge of the cornea. Nothing is reshaped and no flap is involved.

  2. The natural lens is removed

    The lens that stiffened comes out. This is the step that is shared with modern cataract surgery.

  3. The new lens goes in

    A permanent artificial lens takes its place, chosen for the vision you need at distance and up close.

Who it suits

Is it for you?

  • Near vision is the thing that changed. From around forty-five, that happens to everyone.
  • You want near and distance vision corrected together.
  • What changed sits behind your cornea, so reshaping the cornea is not the answer for it.
  • You are comfortable with a permanent answer, and you would rather talk it through with a doctor than read it off a page.

Your eyes decide this, not a web page. The free first visit measures your eyes and tells you the same day whether a lens exchange suits you, whether another of our six methods suits you better, or whether this is not for you at all.

Lens work is planned eye by eye, so your surgeon gives you your own schedule. The check-ups are included: the day after, one week and one month. You buy the prescribed drops at a pharmacy.

The trade

Both sides of it.

What it is good at

  • It corrects near and distance vision together.
  • The same operation as modern cataract surgery, performed many thousands of times a year.
  • Because the natural lens is replaced, a cataract can never form later.
  • Most people are seeing well the next day.

What it asks of you

  • It is permanent, not reversible. The natural lens does not go back in, and that is exactly why the conversation happens with a doctor, unhurried.
  • This is work inside the eye rather than on the surface of it.
  • It costs more than laser: €3,175 per eye, €6,350 for both eyes.

Questions

The ones people actually ask.

No. A lens exchange is permanent: it replaces the eye's natural lens. The implantable lens is the reversible one, because it sits in front of your own lens and can be taken out again.

It is the same operation, performed many thousands of times a year. What differs is the reason for it: here it replaces an aged lens that already stands in the way of full vision, rather than removing a lens that is already clouded. And because the natural lens is replaced, a cataract can never form later.

We will choose the lens for your visual needs and your expectations, at distance and up close. At your free first visit we tell you what to expect from the one your eyes would get. What we will not do is promise you never reach for a pair again.

When what changed is the lens inside your eye rather than the shape of your cornea. A laser reshapes the cornea, and that is not where this problem sits. Your free first visit tells you which of the two you are dealing with.

€3,175 per eye, €6,350 for both eyes. That includes treatment of both eyes in two sessions, your first visit and the tests, your check-ups, fine-tuning during the first year, and surgical insurance covering lens replacement or repositioning. You can also pay in installments.

No. Drops numb the eye before anything starts. You feel pressure, not pain.

The other methods

If this one is not the answer.

We run six. That is the whole point: the one we recommend is the one your eyes need, not the one machine we happen to own.

Adéu, maybe.

Forty minutes, no cost, and a straight answer the same day. We measure your eyes, learn how you use them, and tell you which of our methods fits, if any of them does.
