Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL)

ICL surgery, or Implantable Collamer Lens surgery, is a vision correction procedure designed to treat nearsightedness (myopia). During the surgery, a thin, prescription lens is implanted into the eye to correct refractive errors, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses. ICL surgery is considered a safe and effective option for individuals seeking long-term vision improvement.

ICL surgery offers a clear path to visual improvement by placing a specialized lens inside your eye, addressing a wide range of refractive errors including myopia. It also includes advanced options like toric ICL surgery for astigmatism correction, as well as solutions for conditions like keratoconus, such as keratoconus implantable contact lens. In ICL implantation surgery, a skillful touch is essential. The surgeon creates a tiny incision, gently inserting the foldable lens, which works in harmony with your eye’s natural structures. This lens, composed of biocompatible Collamer material, delivers enhanced vision clarity without altering the cornea’s shape. Imagine it as upgrading your eye’s lens with high-tech precision.

Unlike traditional approaches, ICL implantation surgery is reversible and requires no removal of corneal tissue. This sets the stage for quicker recovery and less discomfort. While the procedure itself is relatively swift, the lasting effects are what truly matter – improved vision quality and reduced dependency on glasses or contact lenses.
