Crystalens Explant

I have had crystalens implants in the past 6 weeks. I am most unhappy, in a lot of pain and discomfort, and visual problems with them and would like to have them explanted. I know that time is of the essence  so would like some recommendations. I live in Ohio and am asking if anyone has recommendations about
a surgeon who is familiar with explanting these lens. My surgeon does not have a lot of experience with explants.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

I have never had to explant a Crystalens for what you have.  I have had to exchange for IOL power correction in post LASIK cases.  You should see an experience Crytalens surgeon to see if your problem can be fixed.
