The First and Only Lens That Can Be Adjusted After Surgery.
The Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL™/LAL+®) is the first and only lens that can be customized after cataract surgery—because we believe your vision should be exactly what you want. Now you can experience your vision, then refine it. So your vision will truly be yours.
A cataract is a cloudiness in the eye’s lens, preventing light from passing through the eye and reaching the retina. Opacity in the eye can be minor or highly hindering to your vision. Cataracts are most often seen in adults over 40 but can occur at any age and cause gradual vision loss.
The Light Adjustable Lens is made of a special photosensitive material that changes the shape and power of your implanted lens in response to ultraviolet (UV) light to optimize your vision.
The Light Delivery Device™ (LDD™) non-invasively delivers this UV light to precisely reshape your lens based on the visual correction that is needed to target your custom prescription.
RxSight offers two lenses in the Light Adjustable Lens platform: the Light Adjustable Lens and the Light Adjustable Lens+™. Your doctor will determine the lens that is best suited to your eyes. Both the LAL and LAL+ provide the same opportunity to customize your vision with your doctor after surgery.
UV light treatments will be performed in your doctor’s office after your eye has healed. Depending on your desired visual outcome, you may have 1–3 light treatments, followed by two “lock-in” treatments to prevent further changes.
