For individuals who are not candidates for LASIK or prefer an alternative to glasses and contact lenses, Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICL) offer a transformative solution. ICL is a safe and proven refractive surgery that involves inserting a lens inside the eye to correct myopia, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, ICL works by adding an artificial lens in front of the eye's natural lens. This procedure is particularly beneficial for people with high prescriptions or unusual corneal shapes, making it a viable alternative to traditional eye care methods.

ICL offers multiple benefits, including a rapid recovery time, low pain, 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 an immediate improvement in vision, often achieving 20/25 vision or better. At Eye Center South, our experienced 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.
