What are the advantages of ICL lens insertion that doesn't shave cornea?
Dec 23, 2024
In Korea, laser vision correction centered on smile lasik or smile pro is still more preferred than lens insertion.
This is because it costs more and is relatively less familiar surgery than LASIK, LASEK, or Smile. However, lens insertion is also a surgery with many advantages and is currently a vision correction method that many people choose. In addition, if laser vision correction surgery is not possible due to corneal conditions or myopia, it is a useful way to take off your glasses.
Unlike LASIK, LASEK, and Smile LASIK, ICL (Implant Contact Lens Impant Surgery) is an operation that restores vision by putting a certain number of lenses between the iris and the lens without using a laser.
The biggest advantage of lens insertion is that it can keep the cornea intact because it is a surgical method that does not cut the cornea. The recovery time of vision after surgery is short and pain is small, so the return to daily life is fast.
In addition, it is also good that patients who have difficulty in laser surgery such as LASIK, LASEK, SMILE LASIK, and SMILE PRO due to thin corneas or poor shape can correct their eyesight through lens insertion surgery.
Patients who need to shave a lot of corneas due to high myopia or high astigmatism can safely correct their vision by inserting a lens. In Japan, the perception that it is safer than the past method of LASIK surgery is spreading, and lens insertion is also common. This is because it gained trust by safely correcting eyesight without cutting the cornea.
Because the lens used for lens insertion surgery is made of a human-friendly collamer material, it can be used semi-permanently and can be maintained for life unless there is a special problem. In addition, the lens can be removed at any time when the patient wants or needs it, allowing it to return to its original state after surgery.
In addition, there is another way to maximize the advantages of general lens insertion surgery.
SuperSave Lens Insertion Surgery (SSVCICL), which is performed exclusively by my ophthalmologist. Most people considering lens insertion surgery due to high myopia are often accompanied by astigmatism. In this way, if astigmatism orthodontic surgery and lens insertion are performed together in highly myopia patients with astigmatism, vision can be restored more safely and concisely. It is a method of providing a clearer view by minimizing remaining astigmatism after surgery by making an incision in the direction of correcting astigmatism through precise examination when inserting the lens.
SuperSave lens insertion also has the advantage of being able to operate using a general lens without expensive toric ICL if astigmatism is severe. Toric ICL can be less effective in correcting astigmatism if the lens rotates within the eye when rubbing or touching the eye after surgery. Patients who have undergone surgery sometimes undergo reoperation. However, super save lens insertion, which solves astigmatism and puts regular lenses, can prevent this possibility, and through this technology, stable and clear vision can be maintained after surgery.
