ICL surgery is based on tried and tested techniques for lens implantation developed in cataract surgery. A 3mm self-sealing valve type wound, which does not require sutures and does not diminish the strength of the eye wall, is used to enter the eye.
What is an IOL? An intraocular lens implant is a synthetic, artificial lens placed inside the eye that replaces the focusing power of a natural lens that is surgically removed, usually as part of cataract surgery [See figures 1 and 2]. When the natural lens is removed, much of the eye's focusing ability is lost. To restore vision, lost focusing power is usually replaced by one of three methods. The first method is the use of glasses (spectacles). The required lens power is high and the corrective lens quite thick.
