Can an artificial lens be replaced?

Yes, an artificial lens can be replaced in certain situations, although this is rarely necessary. Artificial lenses are intended as a permanent solution after lens implantation or cataract surgery, but there are some cases where a replacement may be necessary:

? Wrong prescription - If vision is not optimal and a different prescription appears to be needed.

? Displacement of the artificial lens - A lens may shift in rare cases, requiring reinsertion or replacement.

? S evere night blindness or halos - Some patients experience annoying light circles after implantation, necessitating an adjustment.

? Eye diseases or complications - Certain conditions, such as cataracts after implantation or retinal problems, may require replacement of the artificial lens.

? The procedure to replace an artificial lens is more complex than the initial implantation and is performed only when medically necessary. Therefore, a comprehensive screening at Focus Eye Clinic is essential to make the right lens choice and avoid replacement.
