Описание: Implantable Contact Lens (ICL)

What is Implantable Contact Lens?

Clean and stable vision correction procedure, which inserts lens while preserving the cornea!
ICL is an abbreviation for Implantable Contact Lens. It is a surgery to correct vision by inserting and placing a special lens, that is appropriate for the patient’s refractive error, between the iris and natural lens of your eye.
ICL is made of bio-friendly material through which metabolites in the eye penetrate easily, with little impact on other tissues in the eye and lens designed to fit each patient is used.

Benefits of ICL
1. It is not a surgery to cut the cornea but a vision correction procedure. Therefore, this procedure is applicable to those with corneal diseases such as keratoconus or those with thin cornea. Recurrence of myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia is rare.
2. If complications or side effects occur after ICL procedure, ICL can be removed to return to the state before getting ICL procedure.
3. Side effects such as light glare and dry eyes caused by creation of corneal flap or removal of corneal epithelium during Lasik or Lasek surgery can be minimized and keratectasia which can be caused by thin cornea can be prevented.
