Discover Sharper Vision with Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL)

For individuals who are unsuitable for LASIK or prefer an alternative to spectacles and contact lenses, Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL) offer a transformative solution. ICL is a safe and effective refractive surgery that involves inserting a lens inside the eye to correct nearsightedness, hyperopia, or astigmatism. Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, ICL works by implanting an artificial lens in front of the eye's natural lens. This procedure is particularly beneficial for people with high prescriptions or thin corneas, making it a great alternative to traditional eye care methods.

ICL offers multiple benefits, including a quick recovery time, minimal discomfort, and the ability to remove or replace the lens if necessary. The lens is designed to be well-accepted by the eye, integrating smoothly with the natural structures of your vision. Many patients experience quick improvement in vision, often achieving excellent vision or better. At Eye Center South, our skilled surgeons will work with you to determine if ICL is the right choice for your vision needs, leading you through every step of the process for a positive outcome.
