What is Refractive Lens Exchange?

RLE, also known as Clear Lens Exchange, is a transformative procedure where your eye’s natural lens is replaced with a premium intraocular lens (IOL). This advanced treatment not only corrects presbyopia, myopia, and hyperopia but also eliminates the need for glasses or contacts—forever. Plus, it prevents future cataracts, giving you stable, clear vision for life.

Who Should Consider RLE?

You’re an excellent candidate if you:

  • Are over 40 and ready to ditch glasses or contacts.
  • Lead an active lifestyle and want clear vision for sports, travel, or outdoor adventures.
  • Have high refractive errors or early cataract symptoms.
  • Want to invest in a permanent solution to presbyopia or bifocal dependency.

Why Choose RLE at North Toronto Eye Care?

With Dr. Rabinovitch and Dr. Hess leading your care, you’re in the hands of trusted professionals with unparalleled experience in advanced vision correction.

We use the latest FEMTO laser technology and premium IOLs, including multifocal and extended depth-of-focus lenses, to ensure precise outcomes and life-changing clarity

From your first consultation to your final follow-up, our team is here to guide you. We tailor every procedure to your unique vision goals and lifestyle, delivering results that feel natural and effortless.

  • Each eye takes only 15 minutes to treat, with procedures performed one week apart.
  • Recovery is fast—most patients return to their normal activities in just a few days.
  • Enjoy vivid colors and crystal-clear vision almost immediately.

By eliminating your natural lens, RLE also eliminates the risk of cataracts, ensuring your vision stays sharp for decades to come.

Picture the Life You Deserve

Imagine hiking, golfing, reading, or traveling without ever worrying about your glasses or contacts. With RLE, you’ll rediscover the joy of effortless vision—whether you’re exploring the great outdoors or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home.

Patient Success Stories

“I can’t even remember wearing glasses. I hardly ever wear reading glasses. The halos just somehow went away. This is the greatest thing I’ve ever done. I feel so lucky.”

-Heidi, RLE patient with Symfony EDOF lens

Patient Success Stories

Nice work Ted Rabinovitch ! The Left eye done now and already notice a huge improvement. Yes that is Anne Murray on the poster between us. If you are considering lens replacement I would highly recommend. I was very nervous to even think about an eye operation, but no issue at all.  I think Ted and the staff at North York Eye Surgery Centre made it much easier due to a high level of care and professionalism.  Thanks Ted and crew!
