Experience the next innovation in vision correction with the Light Adjustable Lens, a revolutionary implant designed for unmatched precision and clarity.
Cataract surgery is the most performed procedure in the United States. About 50% of Americans will develop cataracts by age 75 and, if left untreated, they can cause blindness.
Cataracts form when the proteins and fibers in your eye’s natural lens begin to break down, causing hazy or cloudy vision. Once begun, cataracts only worsen until surgery is necessary.
During surgery, a patient’s natural lens is removed and replaced with a clear synthetic one. The procedure usually takes approximately 15 minutes. If you have cataracts in both eyes, each eye is usually done on separate days. Typically, cataract surgery is performed while you are awake, though not until numbing eye drops have taken effect so that you don’t feel discomfort.
When you undergo cataract surgery, your natural lens is replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Traditional lenses come with a fixed prescription. But your eye continues to heal, and minor shifts in vision can occur afterward. Unlike standard IOLs, the cataract light adjustable implant allows adjustments post-surgery for true personalization
This breakthrough light adjustable lens is made from a proprietary photosensitive silicone material. Weeks after your procedure, your doctor can use a specialized device to shine controlled pulses of UV light on your lens—each treatment fine‑tunes the lens so you can “test-drive” different prescriptions until your vision is perfect
Anyone undergoing cataract surgery
Patients who want precise post‑operative adjustments
Individuals with:
Prior LASIK, PRK, RK
High nearsightedness or farsightedness
Irregular corneas
Mild astigmatism (≥0.50 D)
Those who desire reduced dependence on glasses
Important considerations:
Not suitable for patients with:
Medications or conditions causing UV‑sensitivity
Ocular herpes or nystagmus
Uncontrolled macular disease
Inability to use protective eyewear or attend follow‑ups
01
Standard cataract removal: The natural cloudy lens is replaced during cataract surgery with the Light Adjustable Lens, just like any IOL
02
Healing phase: Your eye recovers over 2–5 weeks.
03
Vision check‑ups: You’ll return in-office to review your vision and try different lens settings.
04
Light treatments: A painless UV-based lens adjustment session (about 30–90 seconds), performed over 2–4 visits, adjusts your prescription
05
Final “lock‑in” session: A final UV treatment permanently sets your lens to the refined prescription.
Exceptional visual accuracy: 92% of patients achieved vision within 0.50 D of target—twice as many as with standard lenses
Glasses independence: Patients are twice as likely to hit 20/20 vision without glasses compared to fixed monofocal lenses
Customized to your lifestyle: Whether you prioritize reading, driving, or screen clarity, adjustments can be fine‑tuned to your specific needs.
Astigmatism correction: Only FDA‑approved IOL that can correct as little as 0.50 D of astigmatism for sharper vision.
Safer than multifocals: Unlike some premium IOLs, the light adjustable intraocular lens does not cause glare, halos, or reduced contrast sensitivity.
Studies show:
Twice as many patients achieve 20/20 vision off‑glasses
92% accuracy within 0.50 diopters of target
High patient satisfaction and reduced dependency on reading glasses
The initial cataract surgery is performed via phacoemulsification—standard, safe, and effective Wikipedia.
During healing, you’ll wear UV‑protective glasses to prevent unintended lens change Gulf South Eye Associates, APMC.
Extensive post-operative care and follow‑ups ensure your lens stays in optimal position.
Final lock‑in session ensures long-term stability and clarity.
Basic cataract surgery is generally covered by Medicare and most insurers.
The light adjustable intraocular lens entails additional out-of-pocket costs for the implant and follow-up treatments.

An adjustable lens is an intraocular implant that can be fine‑tuned after cataract surgery using controlled UV light—unlike conventional fixed‑power lenses
It refers to a lens used during cataract surgery that can be adjusted post‑surgically by UV light to refine vision accuracy.
No — adjustments are painless, non‑invasive, and take only about 1–2 minutes per session
Typically, 2–4 adjustment sessions over weeks, plus a final lock-in session.
Most people are eligible, particularly those who want precise custom vision. But patients with certain eye conditions or medication sensitivities may not qualify
Standard components of cataract surgery are usually covered, but the light adjustable lens and follow-up visits may require additional payment. Ask about financing.
