Frequently asked questions about PRELEX

After age 40, the eyesight of many people will gradually decline, requiring increasing use of glasses to support their vision. However, wearing glasses causes many inconveniences in daily life. Thus, PRELEX presbyopia surgery was born and is increasingly popular to restore vision so that you don't need glasses.

What is PRELEX?

PRELEX, or presbyopic lens exchange, is a procedure that reduces the need to rely on glasses for near and distance vision. It replaces the aging natural lens of the eye with a synthetic multifocal lens. PRELEX is typically used to correct vision in patients who are over 40 years old.

PRELEX surgery procedure

PRELEX is done as outpatient surgery.
- During the surgery, the eye is numbed with anesthesia, so you will not feel pain.
- The ophthalmologist will gently make a tiny incision to remove the natural lens of the eye and insert a multifocal lens into your eye.
- Typically, the incision seals itself without stitches.

Who is suitable for PRELEX?

PRELEX is the best choice for people over 40 years old and those who are unhappy with their vision. This includes patients who don’t see well with glasses or want to reduce dependence on glasses and contact lenses.
