What is Custom Lens Replacement (CLR) and how is it different from cataract surgery?

Custom Lens Replacement — also called refractive lens exchange (RLE) — is a procedure that removes your eye’s natural lens and replaces it with a premium artificial lens (IOL) precisely selected to match your vision goals. The procedure itself is virtually identical to cataract surgery, with one key difference: CLR is performed before cataracts become significant, with the goal of vision correction rather than disease treatment. At Florida Eye Custom Vision in Jacksonville, FL, CLR is an option for patients over 40 who want clear distance and near vision — without glasses or contacts — for the rest of their lives.
