Lens implantation for myopia

summary

Lens implantation surgery may not be clear to many people who don't often surf the Internet. Ophthalmologists have said that lens implantation surgery, also known as ICL surgery, is the most advanced refractive surgery method in the treatment of myopia, especially for high myopia. At present, it is used by many professional hospitals to treat high myopia. It is a new technology that can replace LASIK laser surgery, PRK and other cutting surgery for refractive correction. It is one of the most safe products for myopia correction in the world, and has been widely used abroad. Let's talk about lens implantation for myopia.

Lens implantation for myopia

First: ICL intraocular lens is a kind of soft intraocular lens, which is another innovative scientific and technological achievement in the field of modern ophthalmic refractive correction. It can be placed in the anterior safe area of human lens, with a thickness of only about 50 microns, thinner than the diameter of hair, and its postoperative vision is better than wearing frame glasses, contact lenses and other refractive correction techniques implemented on the cornea.

Second: ICL (intraocular lens implantation) is the implanting of intraocular lens in the anterior chamber of the patient's eye, which is conducive to the structural integrity of the eyeball. Its advantage is that it does not remove any eye tissue, but only implanting an intraocular lens from a tiny incision into the eye, which can achieve the purpose of correcting vision.

Third: intraocular lens can be fixed in the anterior chamber angle (between the cornea and iris), or on the iris or between the iris and the lens, which retains the natural adjustment function of the lens, and makes up for the deficiency that excimer laser surgery can not effectively correct ultra-high myopia. Its refractive state is stable and it is not easy to regress. The optical quality and technology content of intraocular lens are very high, the damage to eye tissue is very small, and the accuracy is high. The visual function can be recovered soon after operation, and the normal work, life and study can be carried out.

matters needing attention

At the same time, ICL (intraocular lens implantation) surgery is reversible. In special cases, intraocular lens can be replaced to meet different needs.
