Lens replacement surgery in Gateshead

Lens replacement surgery is a vision correction treatment that involves replacing the natural lens inside the eye with a premium lens implant. One of the main benefits of lens replacement surgery is that it can remove cataracts, but the procedure is also widely used to improve vision for patients who are deemed unsuitable for laser eye surgery or for patients aged 45 or over.
