Contact lenses and eyeglasses can be inhibiting for people seeking visual freedom. ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) is an evolution in vision correction.
Also known as the "Lens," ICL corrects common vision problems such as nearsightedness, astigmatism, and farsightedness. It is a soft, flexible lens positioned in your eye between the iris (colored part) and your natural lens.
Unlike other procedures, ICL does not remove corneal tissue but works in harmony with your natural eyes to provide exceptional quality of vision.
ICL is made of biocompatible Collamer, a material that contains collagen which naturally occurs in your body.
ICL functions to focus light properly back onto the retina, similar to glasses and contact lenses. It is placed in the space directly behind the iris and in front of the natural lens.
Yes! The ICL offers treatment flexibility. If your vision changes dramatically or you develop cataracts later in life, the lens can be easily removed.
No. The ICL is designed to remain in place permanently without maintenance. Unlike contact lenses, you don't need to clean or replace them daily. An annual checkup is recommended.
No. Since it is placed behind the iris (the colored part of the eye), it is completely invisible to you and others. Only a trained doctor can see it with special equipment.
