Experience Sharper Vision with Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL)

For individuals who are not candidates for LASIK or prefer an alternative to spectacles and contact lenses, Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL) offer a life-changing solution. ICL is a safe and effective refractive surgery that involves implanting a lens inside the eye to improve nearsightedness, hyperopia, or irregularities in the eye. 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 helpful for people with high prescriptions 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 replace 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 an immediate 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, leading you through every step of the process for a successful outcome.
