What is Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) Surgery?
Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery is an advanced vision correction procedure designed to provide sharp, high-definition vision without removing corneal tissue. Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, ICL surgery works by placing a soft, biocompatible lens inside the eye—behind the iris and in front of the natural lens. ICL Laser Eye Surgery London
The procedure is completely additive, meaning it doesn’t alter the natural eye structure. The implanted lens works with your eye’s natural focusing ability, providing clear vision while maintaining the integrity of your cornea. One of the biggest advantages? It’s reversible—the lens can be removed or replaced if necessary, offering long-term flexibility for your vision needs.
What Does an Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) Surgery Treat?
ICL surgery is primarily used to correct:
- Moderate to severe myopia (nearsightedness)
- Astigmatism, depending on the lens type
- Dependence on glasses and contact lenses
It’s a great alternative for people who are not suitable candidates for LASIK—particularly those with thin corneas, dry eyes, or high prescriptions.
How Common is this Procedure?
ICL surgery is a well-established vision correction option, with:
- Millions of successful procedures performed worldwide
- Approved by leading global ophthalmic bodies
- A growing reputation for excellent vision quality and fewer side effects compared to laser-based corrections
With its increasing popularity, more people are choosing ICL as a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution for vision correction.
