Understanding Lens Replacement Surgery
Lens replacement surgery, also known as Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE), is an advanced procedure that replaces your eye’s natural lens with a custom-designed artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This revolutionary treatment can correct a wide range of vision problems, including:
- Short-sightedness (myopia)
- Long-sightedness (hyperopia)
- Astigmatism
- Presbyopia (age-related loss of near vision)
Moreover, lens replacement surgery eliminates the need for future cataract surgery, offering a long-term solution for your vision needs.

Post-Surgery Vision Enhancement
At Blue Fin Vision®, we strive for optimal results in all our procedures. However, in approximately 5% of cataract or lens replacement surgeries, the final prescription may not achieve the intended near-zero target. If a residual refractive error of 1 dioptre or more remains, we offer enhancement options to fine-tune your vision.
Enhancement Options
We provide two advanced solutions for vision enhancement:
- Laser Eye Surgery: A precise, customised procedure to correct residual refractive errors.
- Piggyback Sulcoflex Lens: An additional lens implanted to adjust vision without removing the original lens.
Sulcoflex Trifocal Upgrade
For patients who initially received a monofocal distance lens during cataract surgery, we offer an exciting option. The Sulcoflex Trifocal piggyback lens can be added to provide near and intermediate vision, enhancing your overall visual range without the need for removing the original lens.
Our experienced team will guide you through the most suitable enhancement option based on your individual needs and eye health.
