Excellence in Eye Care
Contact Lens Services encompass a range of procedures, treatments, and specialized care related to the fitting, prescription, and management of contact lenses as an alternative to traditional eyeglasses. This includes implantable contact lenses (ICL) as a form of corrective vision treatment.
ICL Procedure:
Implantable Contact Lenses (ICL) are considered an outpatient procedure, taking about 15 minutes. Patients can typically resume most of their activities a few hours after treatment.
Advantages of ICL:
- Immediate improvement in vision.
- Simplifies life as there’s no daily cleaning or concerns about environmental factors affecting traditional contact lenses.
Updatable lens:
If necessary, the ICL can be removed and updated to adjust for changes in vision.
Suitability for Patients:
ICL can be an excellent option for individuals deemed unsuitable candidates for LASIK due to thin corneas, strong prescriptions, dry eye concerns, or other issues.
High patient satisfaction is observed with ICL procedures.
Responsibility and Care:
Full responsibility is accepted by the eye center for their procedures, ensuring comprehensive care and commitment to addressing any unexpected issues.
Phakic Lens Implantation:
ICL is a type of phakic lens implantation, allowing the retention of the natural lens in the eye, placed either in front of or behind the iris.
ICLs provide immediate vision improvement without the need for daily cleaning, concerns about environmental elements, and offer an updatable lens option.
Individuals who are not suitable for LASIK due to factors like thin corneas, strong prescriptions, dry eye concerns, or specific eye conditions might be suitable candidates for ICL.
Yes, if needed, the ICL can be removed and updated to address changes in vision.
Phakic lens implantation, such as ICL, involves inserting an additional lens in the eye, either in front of or behind the iris, retaining the natural lens. It differs from standard contact lenses in its permanent placement within the eye and its specific corrective vision function.
