Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery means that a lens implant in the eye goes between the iris and the natural lens. It can treat refractive errors, so the patient will no longer need contact lenses or glasses. The implant surgery is brief and virtually painless, typically taking only 10-15 minutes. Before the procedure, the vicinity of the eyes will be meticulously cleaned, and a sterile drape may be positioned around the eye. The eyes will be numbed using either eye drops or a local anesthetic. Once the eye is fully anesthetized, an eyelid speculum will be gently inserted to prevent blinking throughout the procedure.
