A Golfer’s Guide to RLE

Thinking about refractive lens exchange and wondering what it could mean for life on and off the golf course?

I created this guide after having RLE myself. It combines my personal experience with straightforward explanations of the options and trade-offs, helping you prepare for a useful conversation with your eye surgeon.

Inside, I cover:

• What RLE involves and how it differs from cataract surgery.
• Near, intermediate and distance vision.
• Monofocal, multifocal, trifocal and EDOF lenses, blended vision and toric correction.
• Glasses, glare, halos and other risks to discuss with your surgeon.
• My experience of the procedure, recovery and returning to golf.
• Questions to take to your assessment.

You’ll receive a 20-page PDF to download and read at your own pace. No physical copy is supplied.

This is a golfer’s perspective, not a promise of a particular result. Educational information only, not personalised medical advice. Your surgeon’s assessment and recovery instructions take priority.
