Imagine having a procedure that can actually prevent cataracts later in life, while significantly reducing your dependence on glasses and contacts. That\u2019s what a Clear Lens Exchange (CLE) can do, and Dr. Labor has helped hundreds of our Dallas\/Fort Worth patients achieve it \u2013 including his wife, a medical doctor and practicing radiologist.<\/p>\n

CLE can correct myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism, as well as age-related presbyopia (requiring readers to see up close). It\u2019s designed for patients before they reach cataract age, or those of cataract age before a cataract has developed, who aren\u2019t eligible for LASIK, PRK, or implantable contact lenses like Visian or Verisyse. Yet the goal of CLE is similar to these treatments: to reduce dependency on glasses or contacts you\u2019ve had to wear most, if not all, of your life.<\/p>\n

How CLE Works<\/strong><\/h3>\n

CLE involves the same basic procedure as cataract surgery lens replacement. Your natural lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens, or Premium Smart Lens as we refer to it. In addition, just like cataract surgery, CLE is performed in minutes and one of the safest procedures you can have. There is little or no discomfort and recovery time is similar, meaning you can usually resume normal activities within just a few days, and most patients can drive within one week.<\/p>\n

When You Can Have CLE Performed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n

CLE is typically performed on people beginning in their 40s who experience vision problems with age, as long as they don\u2019t have cataracts. While we think of cataract age as 60 or older, although rare, cataracts can appear earlier in life. This is why we perform a thorough exam and the most extensive testing you\u2019ll find anywhere to determine if you\u2019re a candidate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How CLE Can Prevent Cataracts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s estimated that by age 70 everyone in this country either has a cataract or has had cataract surgery performed. Replacing your lens before<\/em> you have a cataract<\/em> prevents it from developing later while correcting other vision problems you may have experienced your entire life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Intraocular Lens Choices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We offer a wide range of the latest IOLs available. Some may be better suited to your specific condition, while some simply come with more \u201cbells and whistles\u201d. Dr. Labor is regarded as one of the most innovative IOL surgeons in the U.S., having been the first in Dallas\/Fort Worth to implant the revolutionary RxSight\u00ae Light Adjustable Lens, and the first in North America to implant the advanced RayOne EMV.
