Implantable Contact Lenses, A Vision Correction Option for Nearsightedness in Carmel Valley

An Implantable Contact Lens (ICL), also called a phakic intraocular lens implant, is a vision correction treatment option for patients that are nearsighted. The lens resembles a traditional contact lens, but it is surgically implanted in the eye during a quick, out-patient procedure. The intraocular lens is surgically placed either in front of or behind the iris of the eye, depending on the type of lens being used.

One of the benefits of having the implantable contact lens procedure is the convenience factor. Patients no longer have to worry about contact lens solutions and supplies or misplacing their glasses or prescription sunglasses. And, active patients can enjoy swimming, scuba diving and other sports without worrying about losing a contact lens. To see a video about the procedure, click here.

To find out more about the implantable contact lens procedure or other vision correction options, contact the ClearView Eye and Laser Medical Center team for a complimentary consultation.
