Refractive Lens Exchange

We are born with a flexible lens inside the eye that is able to focus light on the retina and give us vision. As we grow, the eye and the lens change thus forcing most people to wear glasses for the best vision. As we get older, the lens loses flexibility, and we lose the ability to focus on near objects which require the use of reading or bifocal glasses. Many people find the process very frustrating and may elect to remove the natural lens and replace it with a plastic Multifocal Lens. The surgery is equivalent to performing cataract surgery without waiting for the cataract to form and is therefore considered Cosmetic from the insurance standpoint.
