The Light Adjustable Lens (LAL)
At Clarity Eye Center
Customize Your Vision with the Light Adjustable Lens
At Clarity Eye Center, we’re proud to offer the Light Adjustable Lens™—the only cataract lens that can be customized after surgery. Once your eye has healed, gentle UV light treatments allow us to fine-tune your vision based on your personal preferences and lifestyle needs. This means sharper, more precise vision and a greater chance of achieving 20/20 results without glasses.
Your Vision, Perfected After Surgery
The Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL®) is the only intraocular lens that can be customized after cataract surgery, giving you and your doctor the ability to fine-tune your vision once your eye has healed. In an FDA study of 600 patients, those who received the LAL were twice as likely to achieve clear, glasses-free vision compared to standard lenses. Cataract surgery with the LAL follows the same safe procedure as traditional lenses, and after surgery, you’ll wear UV-protective glasses to ensure your customized lens remains stable while your vision is being perfected.

How the Light Adjustable Lens Works
Patient Journey
Photosensitive Material + UV Light
A precise prescription of UV light is delivered the light adjustable lens to adjust and refine the range of vision and astigmatism correction to achieve your desired vision.
Custom Adjustments with the LDD™
After your eye heals, your doctor uses the Light Delivery Device™ (LDD) to deliver controlled UV light to reshape your lens. These in-office treatments let you preview different vision outcomes and choose what works best for you.
Flexible Treatment Schedule
Typically, patients undergo 1–3 light treatments spaced 1-2 weeks apart, followed by two “lock-in” treatments to permanently secure the final prescription.
Permanent, Lasting Vision
Once the final “lock-in” treatments are done, the lens’s shape is set — and you no longer need to wear the UV-protective glasses. The adjustments are stable and designed to last a lifetime.
