What is ICL lens implantation?
ICL lens implantation, also known as "implantable contact lens", is a safe and high-end myopia correction scheme at present. It can restore high-definition vision by implanting tiny intraocular lens thinner than A4 paper without cutting cornea. Because ICL crystal implantation is safe and effective, it has been approved by FDA and widely used in more than 60 countries around the world. More than 654.38 million people worldwide receive ICL lens implantation every year.
Why ICL crystal implantation is a bit expensive?
1. ICL crystal for implantation must be imported from Switzerland and an ophthalmic product with international patent;
2. All crystals need to be "customized by measuring eyes" and carefully produced, and each crystal takes about one week and half a month;
3.ICL surgery has very strict requirements for surgeons and needs to be completed by a team of doctors who have passed the international VISIAN ICL qualification certification.
Understand the reason why surgery is expensive, then let's take a look at the value and advantages of ICL lens implantation:
1, safe. ICL surgery does not need to remove or cut corneal tissue, which has incomparable advantages over other operations.
2. reversible. Unlike contact lenses, ICL crystals can be permanently implanted in the eyes. If you need to do other eye surgery in the future, you can take it out or replace it at any time;
3, high definition. After correction, it can reach or even exceed the expected effect before correction, and restore the high-definition visual quality;
4. Rigorous. Detailed preoperative testing and preoperative preparation, Swiss Seiko custom crystal, international VISIAN ICL qualified doctor team;
5. protection. ICL crystal can block ultraviolet rays and effectively curb related eye diseases caused by ultraviolet rays;
6. comfortable. The stable position of ICL in the eyes ensures that it works in harmony with your eyes. Once the crystal is implanted in the eye, it can't be seen or touched.
In addition, it has two other advantages: first, because there is no need to cut the cornea, there is no requirement for corneal thickness; Second, the degree of myopia that can be corrected is wider. Myopia within 1800 degrees and astigmatism within 600 degrees can be corrected by ICL lens implantation.
Generally speaking, ICL lens implantation is as safe and effective as laser myopia surgery, and both have their own advantages. Although ICL crystal implantation is a bit expensive, it is valuable. Consult an appointment in advance to see if it meets the operating conditions of ICL.
