Implantable Contact Lenses - The Latest Vision Correction Miracle

LASIK, one of the most popular forms of vision correction, has changed the world of sight for millions. However, some patients are not candidates. Until now, these patients were stuck with the inconvenience and hassle of glasses and/or contacts. Today, patients at ClearView Eye and Laser Medical Center have the ability to receive implantable contact lenses also known as ICL’s.

Implantable contact lenses are implanted without removing your eye’s natural lens. They resemble regular contact lenses. Depending on the specific lens and the extent of vision correction needed, the implantable lenses can be surgically placed between the cornea and the iris, or just behind the iris. Regardless of their placement, they work by properly adjusting the way that light reflects back to the retina and can improve vision up often to 20/20.

To see if you are a candidate for vision correction surgery, contact ClearView Eye and Laser Medical Center for a complimentary consultation.
