Implantable Contact Lenses - An Alternative Vision Correction Procedure

Laser vision correction procedures like LASIK and PRK are great options for patients that are tired of or frustrated with wearing glasses or contact lenses. However not all our patients At ClearView Eye and Laser Surgery Medical Center are good candidates for these types of procedures. Now, alternative vision correction procedures, like the implantable contact lens, are available.

An implantable contact lens resembles a traditional contact lens, but it is implanted in the eye during a quick surgical procedure. Depending on the type of lens, it can either be placed behind the iris or between the cornea and the iris. The lens works by correcting the way light is reflected onto the retina and can dramatically improve vision often to 20/20.

To find out more about implantable contact lenses or to schedule a complimentary vision correction consultation, contact us.
