ICL Surgery Cost in Pune — Best Centre

The ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) is a cutting edge technology for refractive error correction which is ideal for person looking for removal of glasses in case person is not fit for Lasik Procedure. In this process a soft, flexible gel-lens used for the permanent correction of myopia (nearsightedness), made up of a collagen copolymer material.

ICL is a revolutionary technique used for the curing of following diseases:-

• Myopia between (-) 18 to (-) 30 diopters
• Hypermetropia between (+) 6 to (+) 15 diopters
• For unfit patients of Lasik

ICL or Implantable Contact Lens in a simple language is a kind of contact lens which is implanted inside the the eye and does not require frequent removal like a normal contact lens. This lens has numerous advantages including its correction of the widest range of myopia (near sightedness), hyperopia (far sightedness) and astigmatism (cylindrical power). This procedure generally takes less than 30 minutes to 40 minutes. Before starting the surgery, the ICL must be loaded into the microinjected cartridge. There lenses are checked under an operating microscope to ensure correct anterior-posterior orientation before they are loaded into the injector to avoid any damage to the parts of the eyes.

A person is eligible for the ICL process are having:

• Age between of 18 and 45 years.
• dry eyes, severe myopia,
• Unfit LASIK candidate
• Nearsighted or farsighted, including those with mild, moderate, and high power with or without occurrence of astigmatism.
• Should not be pregnant during the process.

After surgery patient should visit the doctor regularly for several months to cure successfully.

After ICL surgery, there are several risks associated with it such as the development of small cloudy areas of opacities on the crystalline lens which is occurring due to the touching of the lens during the surgery, increased rate of endothelial cell loss from the back surface of the cornea, and increased pressure inside the eye. Here to minimize pressure in the eye specific eye drops are used. Thus ICL process is an important surgery technology in the field of eye surgery.
