Overview of ICL Implantation
ICL implantation is a highly effective vision correction procedure, particularly suitable for individuals with moderate to severe myopia or those who are not candidates for LASIK due to thin corneas or dry eyes. The procedure involves placing a biocompatible lens inside the eye, providing sharp vision without altering the corneal structure. Recovery is typically rapid, and the lens is removable if needed in the future[1][2][3].
