A method of correction that involves inserting a special lens into the eye without reshaping the cornea. It is suitable for high myopia and thin corneas.
ICL (Intraocular Lens Implantation) is a surgical procedure that corrects vision by inserting a special lens, similar to a permanent contact lens, inside the eye (between the iris and the crystalline lens) instead of reshaping the cornea. Since it preserves the cornea, it is suitable for cases of high myopia or when the cornea is too thin for laser treatment.
It is reversible as it does not remove corneal tissue (lenses can be removed or replaced if necessary), and offers a wide range of correction for high myopia.
Regular checkups for intraocular pressure and endothelial cells are necessary, and since it is an internal eye surgery, precise examinations and skilled medical staff are important.
It can be maintained for a long period and is reversible as it can be removed or replaced if necessary. Regular checkups are required.
It is suitable for cases of high myopia or when the cornea is thin and difficult to treat with a laser, as it does not ablate the cornea.
