Test Drive Your Vision with the Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL)

The Future of Cataract Surgery Is Here

Cataract surgery has evolved, and now so can your vision! At Treasure Coast Eye Specialists, we’re proud to offer the latest breakthrough in cataract treatment — the Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL). This advanced lens allows your vision to be customized after surgery, providing an unparalleled level of precision and clarity.

What is the Light
Adjustable Lens™?

The Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL) is the first and only intraocular lens (IOL) that can be adjusted after cataract surgery, giving our patients the power to achieve the best possible vision. Made from a special photosensitive material, the LAL responds to ultraviolet (UV) light treatments, allowing us to fine-tune your lens for optimal results.

  • Customizable: Adjust your vision after surgery to meet your lifestyle and preferences.
  • Innovative: The LAL uses advanced light treatments to change the lens power post-surgery.
  • Effective: Patients with LAL are twice as likely to achieve 20/20 vision or better than traditional lenses.

Why Consider the Light Adjustable Lens as a Cataract Surgery Option?

Cataract surgery traditionally involves implanting a fixed lens, and the surgeon predicts your final vision before the procedure. With the Light-Adjustable Lens, adjustments can be made after surgery, ensuring your vision aligns perfectly with your needs.

Here’s how the LAL stands out:

  • Personalized Vision: While fixed lenses lock in your prescription during surgery, the LAL allows you and your doctor to adjust your vision over the weeks following your procedure.
  • Enhanced Accuracy: Instead of guessing, your doctor can optimize your vision based on how your eyes heal and adjust.
  • Higher Satisfaction: Studies show that patients with LAL lenses are more likely to achieve 20/20 vision or better without glasses, giving you freedom from corrective lenses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Unlike traditional lenses, the LAL is the only intraocular lens that can be adjusted after surgery. This means your vision can be fine-tuned weeks after your procedure to better suit your needs and lifestyle.

The LAL is made of a special photosensitive material. After your cataract surgery, your doctor uses ultraviolet (UV) light treatments to reshape the lens—customizing your vision based on how your eyes heal and your personal preferences.

Following your procedure, you’ll undergo a few non-invasive light treatments in the office using a Light Delivery Device (LDD). These sessions are quick and allow your surgeon to gradually adjust your lens to achieve your best possible vision.

Ideal candidates include those who want to reduce or eliminate their dependence on glasses after cataract surgery, especially individuals with astigmatism or unpredictable refractive outcomes. Your cataract surgeon will evaluate your eye health and vision goals to determine eligibility.

Most patients require 3 to 4 light treatments over the course of a few weeks. Once you and your doctor are satisfied with your vision, a final “lock-in” treatment is performed to set your lens permanently.

Many patients achieve 20/20 vision or better without glasses after the full adjustment process. However, individual results can vary, and some people may still need reading glasses depending on their final vision goals.

Yes. The LAL has been FDA-approved and is performed by experienced surgeons. The customization process is non-invasive, and clinical studies show high satisfaction and safety rates.
