Implantable contact lens (ICL / Phakic lenses) suitability criteria

  • When laser surgery is not feasible (this concerns up to 5% of patients), it is appropriate to focus on implants (ICL).
  • The intervention makes it possible to correct optical defects not accessible by laser such as:
    • cornea too thin
    • suspicion of keratoconus or fragile cornea
    • severe myopia and astigmatism

These extremely thin implants are slipped between the iris and the lens. Their thinness is similar to contact lenses, hence their name ICL “Implantable Contact Lens

It is now a modern, simple and safe alternative to laser. High-precision implants can be “customized” according to each person’s visual disorder

The procedure takes place under local anesthesia with sedation. A very thin implant is slipped through a 3 millimeter corneal incision between the posterior surface of the iris and the anterior surface of the lens. The color of the eyes is not changed and recovery is very quick and without any pain. More than 2 million of these implants have been placed over the past 25 years.
