What are the advantages and disadvantages of lens replacement?

Dan Nguyen discusses the pros and cons of lens replacement surgery

There are many advantages to lens replacement surgery. By reducing your prescription or your dependency on spectacles and contact lenses, you’ll be granted a new lease of life. You’ll enjoy more freedom, flexibility and confidence with not having to rely upon these aids that you’ve had for all these years. You’ll be able to live your life to the fullest.

Now, there will be some disadvantages to lens replacement surgery.

Lens replacement is an operation, and there are risks with any operation, as there are with all things in life. So it’s important that when we meet, we have that conversation. I can go into greater detail about the potential risks and potential compromises with lens replacement surgery. These differ depending on the lens replacement that we choose for you. But once again, let’s meet, and we’ll have an open discussion about the best choice for you.

What our patients say…

“My vision has improved tremendously, and it’s like having HDTV installed! Once again, many thanks.”

Mr PL

“To Mr Nguyen, Thank you so very much, the berries are very red, as are the traffic lights…and I can see my cat’s whiskers!”

Mrs GE

“I never thought I would describe eye surgery as a pleasant experience, but it was; you are a gifted person. I am sure you have heard this many times before, but the contrast before and after such a short surgery is truly remarkable.”

Mr MH

“I never imagined the difference it would make, black and grey cows now look black and white! Such an amazing difference. I consider, we, as human beings are very privileged to be able to have this treatment.”

Mrs LB

“I cannot thank you enough for the care and attention given to me during my recent cataract removals. As someone of a somewhat nervous disposition, you made the whole experience less stressful than otherwise it might have been.”

Mrs MF

“It is now just over a year since you carried out the procedure on my second eye. I still awake in wonder each morning when I wake and can see clearly.”

Mr BC

“Thank you for the new lens you fitted to my right eye. I cannot believe how much better my vision is – massive improvement for driving.”

Mr BF

“I was facing the possibility of being unable to drive because of poor vision, but now, after 70 plus years of wearing spectacles, I no longer need them! Amazing! Added to that, my snooker has improved enormously!”

Mr DV

“The miraculous improvement from my extreme short-sightedness coupled with cataracts in both eyes is a massive life change, and I am enormously grateful to you all. I wish to thank you most sincerely for all the expertise, care and kindness shown to me.”

Mrs CJ

“From my initial consultation through to walking out the door following surgery, I found the whole process to be fantastic and could not have wished for a nicer experience.”

Mr SC

“I am very pleased to say my eyesight is so much better. I am so delighted that I can see very clearly again, no blurred vision at all. It’s brilliant.”

Mrs ML

“I am writing to thank you and your wonderful team in enabling me to see a world that I almost forgot existed. The vibrancy of colour and brightness are a joy to behold.”
