Individuals who are deemed not to be fit for LASIK have more reasons to rejoice than regret, as latest options for specs removal such as Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery offer not just enhanced eyesight but the final outcome is a high-quality high-definition vision. Besides, the lens is replaceable and removable unlike in LASIK where change is permanent.

The ICL procedure is a low risk, long-term solution and, as such, is a good option for many patients, especially those under the age of 40. The procedure is often recommended for patients with high prescriptions for either short-sightedness (myopia) or long-sightedness (hyperopia), because often the cornea is not thick enough to be treated safely with laser eye surgery procedures such as LASIK or ASLA.

So if you could not qualify for LASIK or other vision correction procedures, don’t feel dejected as Sharp Sight brings the best ICL surgery in Oculus Eye Hospital Jalandhar, Punjab, India.

What Is ICL?

The ICL or Implantable Collamer Lens is an artificial lens which is similar in function as a contact lens, and in structure it closely resembles an intraocular lens (IOL). The lens material, which is technologically advanced and UV protected, has the collagen base which makes it totally compatible with our body.

During the minor surgical procedure, ICL is implanted in front of the eye’s natural lens, in such a way that it is invisible to others, including the patient. Unlike LASIK, which requires removal of a part of the cornea, ICL is an intraocular surgery and therefore, is best suited for individuals with moderate to severe myopia or for patients with thin cornea or chronic dry eye. Infact, its a preferred option over many other procedures as it offers HD vision without having to face the various risks associated with LASIK.

ICL is highly recommended if:

  • - You are 21-45 years.
  • - Have mild to severe myopia
  • - Have a steady prescription
  • - Have eye conditions such as thin corneas or chronic dry eyes
  • - Low refractive error and rejected for LASIK

After the first screening, the patient has to undergo certain diagnostic tests for icl treatment for eyes which determine if the candidate can go ahead with an ICL implant. These eye tests include:

TREATMENT:

  • - ACD=Anterior Chamber Depth
  • - WTW+ white to white measure
  • - K1, K2=.Keratometric measurements, etc.

If all the above measurements fall in the required range then, the patient would greatly benefit from this minor surgical procedure available at all centres of Sharp Sight (Group of Eye Hospitals).
