When it comes to cataract surgery, technological advancements are paving the way for better outcomes and more tailored solutions for patients. At McFarland Eye Care, we’re pleased to offer the Light Adjustable Lens (LAL) by RxSight®, a remarkable option for cataract treatment that allows adjustments to vision after surgery for enhanced precision and flexibility.
What is LAL?
The Light Adjustable Lens is a premium intraocular lens implanted during cataract surgery. Unlike traditional lenses, the LAL can be adjusted after surgery using a specialized UV light to fine-tune your vision. This adjustability ensures that your vision correction is as accurate as possible, giving you the opportunity to achieve clear, customized sight.
How Does the LAL Work?
- Lens Implantation: During cataract surgery, the clouded lens of your eye is replaced with the LAL, just like with standard intraocular lenses.
- Healing Period: Over a few weeks, your eyes heal from surgery, and your vision stabilizes.
- Light Adjustments: Once your eyes have healed, our team uses a precise light delivery device to adjust the lens. This non-invasive procedure takes only a few minutes per session.
- Lock-in Process: After the adjustments, the lens is “locked in” to preserve your new vision prescription.
Why Choose the LAL?
- Customizable Vision: The LAL offers a level of personalization unmatched by other lens options. Adjustments are made based on how you experience your vision in real-world scenarios.
- Enhanced Outcomes: The Light Adjustable Lens has cataract surgery by shifting critical decisions about final lens power to the optimal post-surgery period. This approach ensures flexibility, precision, accommodating lens shifts and refractive changes during healing to achieve superior outcomes.
- Flexibility: The ability to finetune your vision post-surgery means you don’t have to make permanent decisions before experiencing the results.
Who is a Good Candidate for the LAL?
LAL is ideal for patients who:
- Are willing to attend follow-up appointments for adjustments.
- If you’ve previously undergone refractive surgery
- Needing Astigmatism correction
- Are looking for a personalized vision outcome.
