Want clear vision without specs? But worried about your high eye power, excessively dry eyes, or thin corneas? Presenting ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) surgery - a popular LASIK alternative for individuals just like you!
A US-FDA approved refractive eye surgery, ICL can correct nearsightedness (myopia) up to -20D, farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism up to -6D. While LASIK reshapes the cornea, ICL involves implanting an artificial lens permanently inside the eye to ensure light focuses correctly on the retina. This gives you the ability to see clearly without specs or contacts.
The lens used is Collamer, which is soft, flexible, and biocompatible. It is easily accepted by the human body, reducing the risk of complications. Moreover, the lens can be removed or changed, if need arises in future. Enjoy clear vision without any restrictions!
The surgery is fast and painless, and takes only about 10-15 minutes. Before the procedure, the area surrounding the eyes is properly cleaned, and a sterile drape is put. Subsequently, numbing eye drops or a local anaesthetic is administered to ensure the patient does not experience any pain. Once the eye is numb, a small device, called an eyelid speculum, is gently placed between the eyelids to keep them open during surgery.
A small incision, usually less than 3 mm, is made in the cornea - to insert the folded Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) into the eye. The lens unfolds naturally and is carefully positioned between the iris and the eye’s natural lens. This ensures the lens is visible neither to the patient nor to any observer. It also preserves the natural structure of the cornea. Although the lens is meant to remain permanently inside the eye, it can be removed or changed if need be.
The surgeon ensures the ICL is placed perfectly and is secure. There is no change in the shape of the cornea. The tiny incision seals on its own, and no stitches are required. Patients may notice clearer vision almost immediately. Post-surgery, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory eye drops are prescribed to promote healing and prevent infection. Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two.
