Patients from Portland, Tri-Cities, Tacoma, Olympia, Everett, Vancouver, WA and the surrounding Seattle communities choose K2 because we focus on the procedures that solve the most common vision problems, offering safe, long-lasting solutions for people who may not be candidates for LASIK or who want a permanent fix for age-related near vision loss or cataracts.
Your eyes will change with age, but your vision doesn’t have to fade. With Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) and a variety of advanced premium lens technologies, K2 Vision helps you enjoy clear, lasting vision.
In your 50s and 60s, reading glasses often become an everyday hassle. Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) with a customized premium lens can change that. By replacing your natural lens, RLE restores clarity at both near and far distances—often freeing you from glasses while also preventing cataracts from ever forming. It’s a proactive way to protect your vision and enjoy life with sharper sight now.
If glare, halos, or trouble driving at night are affecting your daily life, cataracts may be the cause. Cataract surgery replaces the cloudy natural lens with a customized premium lens, restoring the clarity you’ve been missing.
Whether you’re interested in LASIK/PRK or exploring other vision correction options, this is often the ideal time to consider treatment. Many people in this age range achieve excellent results with LASIK, while others—especially those with thin corneas or higher prescriptions—may be better suited for EVO ICL™, which corrects moderate-to-severe nearsightedness and astigmatism without removing corneal tissue.
RLE replaces your natural lens with a premium lens designed to correct your prescription and reduce or eliminate the need for glasses, even as your eyes age. The procedure is quick, outpatient, and offers a lifetime of benefits.
Cataract surgery replaces your cloudy natural lens with a clear, custom intraocular lens (IOL) to restore sharp vision. It’s a quick outpatient procedure that provides lasting clarity and can reduce your dependence on glasses.
At K2 Vision, we offer a range of advanced intraocular lenses designed to match your unique visual goals. Options include multifocal, trifocal, and extended depth-of-focus lenses that provide clear vision at multiple distances and help reduce dependence on glasses.
Most adults who come to K2 Vision are excellent candidates for RLE—even those who were told they couldn’t have LASIK. Our complimentary consultation includes advanced diagnostics and a personalized evaluation to determine which procedure is right for you.
It can be unfortunate to learn that circumstances beyond your control prevent LASIK from being an option for your vision correction, but we want you to know there are real solutions! Below, you can learn more about RLE and ICL, and how we determine the best vision correction for you.
LASIK isn’t the only option, and for many people it may not be the best fit. At K2 Vision, we specialize in Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) using a full range of premium intraocular lenses designed to address diverse visual needs. These include advanced multifocal, extended depth-of-focus, and Light Adjustable lenses, which can correct prescriptions that LASIK cannot, reduce or eliminate the need for reading glasses, and even prevent cataracts from developing later in life.
If you’ve reached a stage where LASIK may no longer be the most effective long-term solution, you may still be an excellent candidate for advanced lens-based vision correction. Our surgeons will evaluate your eyes and create a custom plan designed to give you clear, lasting vision.
Lens-based procedures are all we do. That means our team is deeply experienced and completely focused on getting you the best possible result with RLE using premium lens options. Every procedure is customized to your anatomy, prescription, and goals, using the most advanced diagnostics and surgical technology available today.
Vision correction should be both life-changing and accessible. K2 Vision offers transparent pricing, clear expectations, and convenient financing options so you can focus on seeing better—not stressing about cost.
At K2 Vision, our commitment to your eyesight extends far beyond a single procedure. Many of our patients first trusted us with LASIK/PRK/ICL years ago, and now, as the natural aging process affects the lens of their eyes, they turn to us again for advanced solutions to restore clarity. Wherever you are in your vision journey—whether considering your first treatment or addressing age-related changes—we’re here for you at every stage, to answer your questions, protect your eye health, and keep your vision sharp for a lifetime.
