What Are Light-Adjustable Lenses?
A light-adjustable lens is an intraocular lens that retains a degree of malleability for a set period after surgery. While standard IOLs lock in your prescription as soon as they're inserted, a light-adjustable lens remains tunable, allowing a specialist to shine a specific UV light onto the implant during follow-up appointments. This process alters the lens's shape or power incrementally, targeting any minor refractive errors that may become evident only after the healing process has begun.
The lens aims to deliver sharper overall outcomes by refining your vision in real time, particularly if you have unique eye characteristics or challenging prescriptions.
