ICL Benefits

Biocompatible

Our Visian® ICL lenses from STAAR® Surgical are made of the biocompatible material called "Collamer" - a combination of “collagen” and “polymer", which works in natural harmony with your eye and body.
Suitable for Thin Corneas

Many patients are turned away from laser vision correction surgery because of their thin corneas. Fortunately, as ICL does not involve the cornea, having thin corneas is no issue.
Suitable for High Myopia and Astigmatism

Unlike with laser vision correction procedures, ICL is able to correct high refractive errors, with up to 1,800 degrees of myopia and 600 degrees of astigmatism being correctable.
Minimally Invasive Surgery

The ICL procedure is minimally invasive, with the flexible collamer lens being inserted through a 2 - 3 mm micro-incision.
Quick Surgery and Recovery

The procedure takes only 20 - 30 minutes, and is completely painless. Patients will be able to resume daily activities in just 2 -3 days!
No Corneal Tissue Removed

Unlike with most laser vision correction procedures, ICL surgery does not remove corneal tissue, thus allowing for any future corneal procedures needed.
Protection from UV Rays

Our collamer ICL lenses have UV protective properties that will block harmful UV rays from harming your eyes.
No Dry Eyes

As ICL surgery does not involved the cutting of the cornea or removal of any corneal cells, the corneal nerve endings remain untouched, and the eyes lubricating functions unaffected.
A Removable Option

What the ICL procedure does is add a corrective lens to correct refractive errors. And if your prescription changes or new vision options become available, the lens can simply be removed and replaced.
Excellent Night Vision

Many ICL patients observe excellent night vision. In comparison with high myopia patients who have had laser vision correction, there is a lower incidence seeing haloes and starbursts at night.
