Lens transplant is another type of vision correction where the original lens in your eye is being replaced with another that can correct your vision.

Now there are replacement lenses that almost resemble the human lens. The artificial lens filters out the blue light that can damage the pigment cells of the retina. The traditional ones could filter out only the ultra-violet rays. These lenses absorb the blue light waves and damage the eye. The human eye filters about 80 percent of blue light waves. This new lens does not alter color vision nor does it disturb the capacity of the eye to see in dim light.
