The lens becomes a bit less elastic. It changes in clarity, and also we call it lens replacement surgery. The lens is not as functional as used to be when you’re younger.In summary, if you are long-sighted, short-sighted, or with astigmatism, and you want to be less dependent on glasses, then lens replacement surgery is good if you are aged 45 and above. It has the bonus that you no longer will need a cataract operation because we remove your natural lens, and you have an artificial lens now, so there are no more surgeries required.Share This Story, Choose Your Platform!.fusion-sharing-box-2 h4{margin-bottom:0 !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2{flex-direction:row !important;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px){.fusion-sharing-box-2 h4{margin-right:0.5em !important;margin-bottom:0 !important;}.sharingbox-shortcode-icon-wrapper-2{width:auto !important;justify-content:flex-end !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2{align-items:center !important;} }@media only screen and (max-width:640px){.fusion-sharing-box-2{flex-direction:row !important;align-items:center !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2 h4{margin-right:0.5em !important;margin-bottom:0 !important;}.sharingbox-shortcode-icon-wrapper-2{width:auto !important;justify-content:space-between !important;} }
