If you have vision problems and have been told you are not a good candidate for LASIK surgery, don't give up hope. Depending on the condition you have and its severity, you may be eligible for an experimental procedure known as refractive lens exchange (RLE). RLE may be suitable for those with common refractive problems, like myopia and hyperopia, which have been complicated with the introduction of cataracts. Furthermore, RLE may be suitable in some cases for patients who are otherwise ineligible for LASIK eye surgery based on age considerations.

RLE is surgery that involves taking a defective lens completely out of the eye and replacing it with an artificial one. When a patient has a cataract, the natural lens usually becomes increasingly cloudy, which further disrupts vision and can even cause total blindness. RLE is a viable option for those with cataracts, as it can be performed quickly before the cataracts worsen.
