Don’t miss the action with this game-changing procedure

PHOENIX — The clear lens exchange procedure has emerged as a popular alternative to LASIK eye surgery.

Don’t take our word for it — ask Phoenix Suns play by play announcer Kevin Ray who knows distant vision is the key to calling plays. Ray recently received the surgery by Dr. Jay Schwartz, the Suns team eye doctor.

Ray has spent over 20 years with the Suns broadcasting team, including serving as the play-by-play announcer since 2017. “No matter how fine the print is on the game notes, I know I can sit there and read it.” Ray said.

Clear lens exchange is identical to cataract surgery and takes less than 10 minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis. The surgery replaces the natural lens of the eye with an artificial one that is designed to correct your vision.

Schwartz Laser Eye Center is the place to go for clear lens exchange and light adjustable lens, a lens option used during the clear lens exchange surgery.

“Within two weeks of the surgery, I ditched the glasses and haven’t used them for two months now,” Ray said. “I’m beyond thrilled with the results.”

The procedure can help with depth of focus, whether you’re aiming for distance vision or wish to reduce your dependence on reading glasses.
