ICL Lens Implant

Description

Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery is a type of refractive surgery designed to improve vision by implanting a specialized lens into the eye. The procedure typically begins with a comprehensive eye examination to determine the patient's suitability for the ICL and to take precise measurements of the eye. On the day of surgery, the patient is given a local anesthetic to numb the eye. The surgeon then creates a small incision at the edge of the cornea. Through this incision, the ICL, which is a soft, flexible lens, is folded and inserted into the eye and placed behind the iris, in front of the natural lens. The incision usually heals on its own without the need for sutures. Post-surgery, the patient is monitored for a short time before being allowed to go home. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to ensure proper healing and to check that the ICL is correctly positioned. Most patients experience improved vision within a day, though it may take some time for the vision to fully stabilize. The ICL can be removed or replaced if necessary, but it is designed to be a permanent solution for vision correction. Following the surgeon's advice on post-operative care, such as using prescribed eye drops and avoiding certain activities, is critical to a successful recovery. This minimally invasive procedure often offers a swift recovery and significant improvements in vision quality, particularly for those with high degrees of nearsightedness who may not be ideal candidates for LASIK surgery.
