Custom Lens Replacement (CLR)

A modern solution for clearer vision without glasses or contacts

Custom Lens Replacement (CLR), also called refractive lens exchange (RLE), is an advanced procedure that replaces your eye’s natural lens, improving vision and reducing the need for corrective eyewear.

What Is Custom Lens Replacement?

Custom Lens Replacement (CLR) is a surgical procedure where the eye’s natural lens is removed and replaced with a premium intraocular lens (IOL) tailored to your visual needs. This is the same technique used in cataract surgery but is performed electively for people who want long-term vision correction. CLR can correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even presbyopia (age-related near vision loss).

Who Is a Good Candidate for CLR?

CLR is typically recommended for adults over 40 who are not ideal candidates for LASIK or PRK, often because of age, thin corneas, or early signs of cataracts. It’s also a great option for individuals frustrated with reading glasses or bifocals. If you’re seeking a long-term solution and want to avoid the future need for cataract surgery, CLR might be worth considering.

What to Expect During the Procedure

CLR is an outpatient procedure that typically takes 10–15 minutes per eye. You’ll be awake, but your eye will be numbed with drops to keep you comfortable. Using a small incision, your surgeon will gently remove the natural lens and insert a custom artificial lens selected specifically for your vision goals. Most patients have one eye treated at a time, with the second eye scheduled shortly after.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from CLR is generally quick and involves minimal discomfort. Most patients notice improved vision within a few days, with full results in about 1–2 weeks. You’ll need to use prescription eye drops for a short time and follow simple aftercare instructions. The implanted lenses are permanent and do not age, so results are long-lasting, often eliminating the need for future cataract surgery.
