Brinton Vision Released New Article on Custom Lens Replacement

St. Louis, Missouri -

Recently, Brinton Vision, the leading vision correction center in the St. Louis area, released an article about Custom Lens Replacement Surgery, also known as Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE). Custom Lens Replacement and Refractive Lens Exchange are terms used interchangeably to describe a procedure that is becoming widely popular for people who want to improve vision but no longer want to wear contact lenses or glasses. The procedure can also prevent the development of cataracts in the future.

Brinton Vision talks in the article about their goal to change people's lives through the gift of improved vision. It also describes a refractive lens exchange procedure and how it improves eyesight. During the procedure, the eye's natural lens is replaced with an artificial intraocular lens which corrects problems caused by nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, presbyopia, or cataracts. The fifteen-minute-long procedure is safe and painless, and Brinton Vision patients notice improved vision soon after.

Questions that prospective patients frequently ask are addressed in the article by Brinton Vision. For example, people often ask if custom lens replacement is a cure for presbyopia, and according to the article, it can be permanently cured with a refractive lens exchange surgery. A customized lens implant can correct both near and distance vision using a multifocal lens. Presbyopia can be treated with RLE in one or both eyes, although it works best when both lenses are replaced.

The article, which readers can find on the Brinton Vision blog, also addresses if refractive lens exchange can help with Dysfunctional Lens Syndrome, a gradual loss of vision of the natural lens inside the eye. The article states that Dysfunctional Lens Syndrome can be cured with refractive lens exchange surgery, bringing life-changing vision improvements to its patients.
