Implantable Collamer lens treatment provides a long-term solution for correcting nearsightedness without permanently altering the cornea.
What Are Implantable Collamer Lenses?
Implantable collamer lenses (ICLs) work alongside your natural eye structures, inserted just behind the iris while leaving the cornea untouched. This means no flap creation or extensive corneal reshaping, making it especially appealing to those who lack the thickness or stability required for LASIK or PRK.
By placing a soft, biocompatible lens inside the eye, implantable collamer lens treatment in Manhattan can dramatically reduce one's dependence on glasses or contact lenses. It often delivers crisp, high-quality vision with less postoperative dryness or discomfort.
