What is UltraView ReLACS™?

UltraView ReLACS™ stands for refractive lens exchange cataract surgery. This advanced procedure involves removing the eye's natural lens and replacing it with a new, artificial lens. The term ReLACS™ specifically refers to refractive lens exchange cataract surgery, where each letter stands for a key component of the procedure: "R" for refractive, "L" for lens, "E" for exchange, and "C" for cataracts.

Refractive Lens Exchange vs. UltraView ReLACS™

The distinction between UltraView ReLACS™ and Refractive Lens Exchange lies in the presence of a cataract. Both surgeries involve the removal and replacement of the eye's lens. However, ReLACS™ is specifically designed for patients with cataracts, whereas refractive lens exchange is intended for individuals without cataracts.

Impact of Cataracts on the Procedure

Each patient's lens is customized based on their individual needs. The key difference between UltraView ReLACS™ and refractive lens exchange is the presence of a cataract. ReLACS™ is designed for patients with cataracts, while refractive lens exchange is for those without. Both procedures involve removing and replacing the lens, but the presence of a cataract makes the surgery necessary to restore vision.

Ideal Candidates for UltraView ReLACS™

We would recommend UltraView ReLACS™ to anyone who has the means to opt for it. ReLACS™ utilizes advanced technology that offers greater accuracy and minimizes human error compared to manual surgery. While our doctors are phenomenal, the cutting-edge technology in ReLACS™ ensures more precise outcomes.

Conclusion

UltraView ReLACS™ represents a significant advancement in cataract surgery, offering precise and effective vision correction tailored to each patient's needs. At UELC, our commitment to utilizing cutting-edge technology ensures that our patients receive the highest standard of care.
