If the IOL is implanted after the expiry of time, you can take legal action against the doctor concerned. But, IOLs do not break down over a person's lifetime and do not need to be replaced. Whether it is legal or illegal, first consult the Eye Specialist.

Unlike natural lenses, IOLs do not break down over a person's lifetime and do not need to be replaced.
A replacement may occur if it's necessary for patient satisfaction or technological advancements. Once you have laser cataract surgery with a premium lens, you are set for the rest of your life.
