Overview:
ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) surgery is an increasingly popular option for patients with high myopia (severe nearsightedness) who are not ideal candidates for LASIK or LASEK. During this procedure, a synthetic lens is implanted inside the eye to correct vision, offering a permanent solution with no need for glasses or contact lenses. ICL is highly effective for those with high refractive errors and offers the advantage of being reversible in some cases.
Additional Costs:
- Pre-surgery eye exam and consultation
- Post-surgery follow-up care
- Possible cost for additional lenses if required for corrective purposes
