Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is a surgical procedure where the crystalline lens of the eye is replaced with an artificial intraocular lens, correcting refractive errors such as hyperopia, myopia, and astigmatism. This treatment is typically used for individuals with advanced presbyopia or those who are not good candidates for laser vision correction.

Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) is a surgical procedure in Nepal that replaces the natural lens of the eye with an artificial one to correct vision problems such as presbyopia, astigmatism, and myopia.
