If laser treatment isn't an option for me, what other solutions are there?

During the preoperative assessment, if laser surgery is contraindicated, you will be offered other solutions for correcting your vision:

• A "phake" intra-ocular implant, which involves placing a small corrective lens inside the eye, without operating on the crystalline lens.
• Replacing your crystalline lens with an intraocular lens; also known as a clear lens. The procedure is identical to that for cataracts. This procedure can be considered from the age of 45-50, when the crystalline lens has lost its ability to accommodate.
