[Sydney, June 19, 2015] – Australian Institute of Eye Surgery, a trusted name in North Sydney’s ophthalmic laser market, corrects the vision of patients with presbyopia and high hyperopia through its lens replacement surgery. Interested customers over the age of 45 can contact the clinic immediately for fast, great results.

Refractive Lens Exchange

Australian Institute of Eye Surgery has been conducting lens replacement surgeries, also called refractive lens exchange (RLE), for several years. The procedure removes the eye’s natural lens and replaces it with an artificial one, a process that typically takes 15 minutes to accomplish. The artificial intraocular lens (IOL) can be toric, aspheric, multifocal or a combination of the three.

The treatment aims to help patients correct refractive error, reducing the need for using reading glasses and to achieve sharper focus. It is ideal for people suffering from extreme farsightedness or for those who want to have both distance vision and near vision restored.

The Australian Institute of Eye Surgeryexplains that RLE is a permanent solution for vision correction. The facility’s team can perform the procedure as day surgery, as it is virtually identical to cataract surgery. The only difference, according to the clinic, is that the lens being replaced is clear, and not a cloudy one. The Australian Institute of Eye Surgery can recommend an IOL that will best suit a patient’s needs.

Other Life-Changing Eye Surgeries

The Australian Institute of Eye Surgery has built a strong reputation for its line-up of procedures offered. This includes (but is not limited to):

• Wavefront Lasik–This type of laser eye surgery can fix even the tiniest imperfections in a patient’s cornea. The procedure aims to improve how much a patient can see. In addition, it can minimise the risk of night glare that traditional eye surgery may cause. The Australian Institute of Eye Surgery’s team measures visual acuity using the standard 20/20 eye chart.
• Cataract Surgery –The eye cataract and implant surgery is one of the safest operations worldwide. To break up the cataract into smaller sections, the clinic’s surgeon will make a tiny incision in the cornea to pass instruments into the eye. Once removed, the clinic will insert artificial lens where the cloudy lens used to be.
