Discover Clearer Vision with Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL)

For individuals who are not candidates for LASIK or prefer an alternative to spectacles and contacts, Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL) offer a life-changing solution. ICL is a safe and effective refractive surgery that involves inserting a lens inside the eye to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, 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 strong vision problems or thin corneas, making it a viable alternative to traditional vision correction methods.

ICL offers multiple benefits, including a quick recovery time, minimal discomfort, and the ability to remove or swap the lens if necessary. The lens is designed to be biocompatible by the eye, integrating smoothly with the natural structures of your vision. Many patients experience quick improvement in vision, often achieving 20/25 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, guiding you through every step of the process for a successful outcome.
