Why Should Life Be A Blur?
Have you noticed you’re no longer able to focus on objects up close? Are you looking for a life free from corrective lenses, but you’re not a candidate for LASIK? Not to worry! You have more options to see clearly with clear lens exchange (CLE), also known as refractive lens exchange (RLE).
CLE is essentially exactly as it sounds: An expert ICON Eyecare surgeon simply replaces your natural lens with an artificial one to correct refractive errors. The end goal is for patients to free themselves of glasses and contacts — a goal that’s achieved for most patients with our advanced technology lenses. And, with CLE, you never have to worry about cataracts in the future!
If you’re ready to take control of your vision, our world-class doctors are ready to help.
Understanding Clear Lens Exchange
CLE is a simple, safe, and effective surgery that’s very similar to cataract surgery. Our team of experts is here to help guide you every step of the way.
Confidence in Vision Correction
During CLE, the natural lens is removed from the eye and replaced with an acrylic, silicone, or plastic artificial lens (called an intraocular lens, or IOL). The trusted surgeons at ICON Eyecare use state-of-the-art laser technology to ensure patients experience minimal discomfort and the highest-quality, most customized results. Our computer-assisted instrument allows us to make highly precise cuts; then, an intraoperative wavefront aberrometer is used to fine-tune the results once the lens is replaced. The procedure typically takes no longer than 20 minutes, and most patients require only a short recovery period.
At ICON Eyecare, we’re proud to offer the latest innovations in CLE and advanced IOLs, including various premium multifocal IOLs that allow you to see at different distances without relying on glasses. Our experienced team will help you understand each option and choose the best lens for your vision goals, lifestyle, and budget during your free consultation.
Are You a Good Candidate for CLE?
CLE can correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, and it’s particularly helpful in resolving early onset cataracts. The surgery isn’t right for everyone, but it may be an option for people with dry eye syndrome, thin corneas, or presbyopia (gradual loss of your eyes’ ability to focus on nearby objects). If you’re not a candidate for CLE, we can help you explore other vision correction options that may be better suited for you and your needs.
Committed to Affordable Vision Correction
At ICON Eyecare, we strive to make vision correction possible for any budget and to help our patients understand the long-term value of their vision correction procedure. We accept health savings accounts (HSAs) and flexible spending accounts (FSAs). Additionally, we offer financing options through Care Credit and Alphaeon, subject to credit approval. During your free consultation, our knowledgeable team will help you determine how to make your CLE procedure as affordable as possible.

“Deciding to visit ICON Eyecare was a huge step for me and propelled me on a journey with an amazing outcome: I can see so clearly, I now take it for granted! The staff from top to bottom provided me with care and knowledge every step of the way. A big decision? You bet! A great decision, you bet! I look forward to jumping in a pool, skiing down the slopes at Breck, and never worrying if my contacts will slip or come out!”

“I was greeted as a member of the family every time I went in for any visit. They were so caring and nurturing, making me feel comfortable for a very nerve-racking procedure. During the consultation, all aspects of the procedure were discussed with me in detail, making me feel confident and comfortable that I would be getting the best treatment option for my lifestyle.”

“I’ve worn glasses for nearly 15 years; there have been so many pairs broken, scratched, or have gone missing, and it was time for a change. If you’re considering a change from contacts or glasses, I highly recommend ICON Eyecare. It’s been a life changing experience and my only regret was not doing it sooner!”
