Dr. Robert Burlingame, Dr. Andrew Bossen and Dr. William Plauché are so confident about the safety and effectiveness of Crystalens Cataract Surgery, they have performed this procedure on their own family members and staff. That's how much they believe in this procedure. In fact, it has become their cataract surgery of choice for most patients!

About Crystalens - The First and Only FDA-Approved Accommodating Lens

What makes Crystalens cataract surgery so revolutionary is that Crystalens technology allows trained ophthalmologists and eye surgeons to replace a cloudy lens with an "accommodating" intraocular lens (IOC). This accommodating lens mimics the eye's natural lens, moving and flexing in response to eye muscle contractions in order to focus on near, far or intermediate objects. This means that Crystalens can provide sharper vision, without corrective lenses, through a full range of vision -- from near to far and everything in between. This is how Crystalens is able to treat cataracts and presbyopia in one safe procedure.
