I've always been curious about ICL eye surgery and lasik so i loved listening to your experience! That's awesome you recovered so quickly and had such a great experience!
😄😄😄😄😁same here,. I am also been curious about ICL,and always watch public reviews and experiences on RUclips
This is the video I needed! Thank you! ☺️
Glad everything turned out good and so glad you shared your experience ❤️❤️💕
Hey Sindy!! Just got mine yesterday and Must thank You for all The encouragement!! You rock!!!
Aww congrats!! Thank you so much and you’re most welcome!!
I also got mine a day after yesterday but my left eye is blurry and my right eye is clear. I'm scared rn 🤧
Thanks for sharing your experience! If you feel like doing an update, I'd be super curious to hear how you're doing today :)
I got recommended to this vid.. Glad I got it!
Thank you for the wonderful video by the way it was helping me for my decision prior the operation ❤ 😊
Brilliant and informative video , if you could update us on any future side effects , but I have heard this is one of the best out of all surgeries.
Thank you so much for this video! It would be cool to see another update on your eyes now :) I'm having my ICL surgery in 2,5 months and I'm so nervous haha but also realllly excited since I've been wearing glasses/contacts for 21 years now.
Thank you! :) ohh you are gonna love it!! Wishing you the best results and don’t be nervous :)
How did it go?
How is your experience so far?
@@mad_titanthanos it has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I still see halos when there are bright lights or in the dark but I’ve gotten used to it and am able to ignore them now. The doctor says my lens might be a bit too large which causes it to bend a little more than desired which can be a cause of the halos. I am being monitored now, it has been a year since I’ve had my surgery :)
@@Shiwi24 glad you had a great experience. Appreciate the quick response I want to get them done but my family and I are too paranoid. I have massive astigmatism (starburst and halos, ghosting etc). Did you have all these too which are now cured? How's your quality of life so far? Any complicatioms or cautions you need?
This is the only vision correction surgery I can have done. The combination between a thin cornea and an irregular shaped cornea. Ive watched other videos on RUclips and have read comments of some people who have had nightmare experiences that have made their vision worse. The rings kind of scare me because they don’t go away it just your body adapting to it. I also heard people talk about glare and you kind of adapt to that as well.
Great vid,I got my teeth done in turkey a couple of months ago and the guy who owns the building and the dental clinic also is one of the best eye specialists in turkey,he checked my eyes and says I’d be suitable to get get icl done and I would get rid of my cataract,so I’m going in march next yr to get it done and it’s about a third of the price of the quotes I’ve had in Britain thanks
Can you tell me where i can find him?
I would advise you to get your nails done first.
@@Rajesh_Singh301 why
@@charlieboylol527 no particular reason except that teeth then nails then eyes seems to be a natural progression.
@@Rajesh_Singh301 aye right pal
How much did it cost and what was your prescription? Did you have floaters before/after the surgery?
I got ICL surgery last week. My doctor did both eyes at once. I have the same things as you do post-op (rings on bright light). At the moment I still have slight myopia on my right eye (0.25) and my left eye is slightly better than normal (12/10). The doctor said it's the best case scenario for long term because my vision will not change much because of this. Obiously this could change over time but I'm very satisfied.
Do you still have issues at night?
@@davidpanqueva3899 I still have the circles but it is more bearable over time
@@davidpanqueva3899The circles are kind of a byproduct of a feature. The ICL has a central hole port - this guarantees the unhindered fluid exchange for the lens behind it.
So while the modern ICL won’t be in the way any more, this hole adds a ring for bright light sources.
Your brain learns to blend them out/ignore them after about 6 months.
Hey Sindy !
Thank you for your video, got my right eye done this monday, currently on wednesday so like ~2.5 days later and I had a few questions.
I can read a lot of letters but I noticed that my reading is rather blurry in "dark situations" and I still have some troubles focusing my eyes properly for some writings. I believe it to be simply because both of my eyes aren't done the same day but I was wondering if you also experience blurriness, especially around light sources 2 days after the surgery ?
Thank you a lot and wish you the best !
Hey! First of all thank you very much. 2 days after surgery is still very early to worry about anything - especially if one eye surgery is still missing. Don’t panic and give it some time. I remember when my first eye was done, I also had trouble with lightning and especially halos. But it’s all good now and I’m really happy.
Don’t worry, it’ll be alright. :)
So good i watched your video. I'll have this surgery in June and I'm Soo nervous... I hope everything will be ok. What about the future? Aren't you afraid that sth will happen to your eyes because of ICL? Honestly, I'm not worried so much about side effects right after surgery, but like 10-20 years after it. On the other hand, i never know what's gonna happen without ICL in my eye, so... I don't really know if i should think about it so much, but I'm nervous anyway... I hope I won't resign, i really hate my -7, it's unbearable!
You won’t regret it. I can say it changed my life a lot and I’m super happy I did it. It’s okay to be nervous, I was too. But you’ll be so happy after. Especially with a -7. I wish you all the best.
I am considering undergoing ICL surgery and would like to know about your experience with it. How was it for you? Is it safe? It has been a year since you underwent the surgery. Does the power coms back? Do you think I should go ahead with it?
Which lens you chose for icl? Are those star vision lenses?
im thinking of doing ICL instead of lasik seems safer
What was your prescription numbers before?
isn't your vision still blocked by the scars or are they not by your pupil?
Hey Sindy you intro music is awesome , can provide the name of that music
Does your one eye was blurry from another after some of treatment
What was your prescription before having ICL surgery?
Did the rings disappear ?
Can you wear coloured contact lenses if you wanted when you have icl done on your eyes?
Yes. You won’t change anything regarding your cornea.
What was your power?
Hello guys! I’ve had my icl operation some 5 days ago! First I got my right eye operated - control on the second day - 3rd day operation of the left eye - day 4 control - today is day 5 in total ! My sight is clear, I see only a few halos sometimes and they don’t bother me. The night after both of the operations I had strong strong headache (took too many pain killer pills - but they didn’t help - I had to go through this until I finally fell asleep around 3 or 4 in the morning both days) anyway after waking up in the morning the pain was gone on both days only a little little pain in the hole where the eye is sitting. (Sorry for my English I am Austrian 😅) I have no problems with light, no problem with reading. just using the phone for a long time or tv light is making my eyes a little tired. I love how I can see now without caring about glasses. Lenses, red eyes, dry eyes.. my eyes aren’t even dry so far.. let’s see! The only thing that irritates me since I’ve had the operation I have really strong and crazy dreams, sometimes multiple and waking up sweating. I didn’t have that before and I tried to find somebody who tells the same but I didn’t find anything on the internet ..
If somebody has the same experience about dreaming please let me know ! Sometimes I wake up with such a fast heartbeat as if I was doing a sprint… normal? 😅
how long do you have to use the eye drops for? just temporarily while it heals? or for the rest of your life?
Fortunately not the rest of your life. I had to use it for 1 Week.
My Dr said there has to be a gap of 5 days between both eyes surgery. After how much time can we start our office work from laptop.?
Depends on the clinic. Many that specialize on ICL are able to perform both in one sitting.
Usually a couple of days to one week.
It is however better to not do any demanding/extreme sport activities for the first month.
It is very rare but the lens needs this time to sit firmly and eliminate any residual risk of turning (this is mainly for people with toric ones)
Hello
How do you fell now after a time?
Hellos still there?
Wish you the best..
Nice. I had my ICL done too. All in one day from check up to surgery for both eyes.
How is it going now? 😍
How is it going for you? Any side effects like dry eye?
Hi Sindy! When can a person have sharp vision after icl?
WARNING! ALL types of refractive eye ops are Russian Roulette anywhere!
I was suggested to go for ICL. Although after reading a lot of research articles about the risk of early Cataract, which is inevitable, I dropped the idea. How do you feel about ICL in a long run? How has been your experience for the last 1 year?
Wrong conclusion.
1. Cataract is a fate of EVERYONE. 65+ all lenses will start hazing.
2. You found obsolete studies of 2000th. Those kind of lenses aren’t used any more. They could inhibit the fluid dynamics of the eye a bit. Modern ones have absolutely no effect on the lens.
3. Modern ICL is the safest of all correction types besides the glasses. Other than a few endothelium cells that you lose after any kind of deep eye manipulation there is nothing to worry about.
For me, early cataracts already run my family. The discussion I had at my consultation addressed this risk as very real, but the doctor said cataracts is something that happens to everyone it’s just a matter of when. If I’m already predisposed, then there’s no point in holding myself back from the relief of ICL. The inconvenience and stress that my contacts and glasses cause my life outweigh the fact that I may have to wear cheaters and get cataract surgery a little earlier than most people. I can barely function in my glasses now, so even if I have to wear normal glasses after the surgery, that would still be a dream come true to me. Contacts are not very good for your eye health and I worry about having to wear them so much. Since I can’t see out of my glasses very well I wear contacts sometimes up to 16 hours a day and it worries me that I’m damaging my eyes. Yes it’s a serious risk but it’s one I’m willing to take.
@@samijune5824 hey i absolutely get you. I have both myopia and astigmatism even tho i only have about -6 of myopia i just can't live with glasses. I can't stand them they weight on my ears and make everything difficult even when things should be easy. I wore contacts for years and for long hours just like you, but now my eyes can't stand them anymore and i'll get conjuntivitis if i wear them and it really painful. It's because my eyes dried out wearing them. So since i can't get lasik i wanna do this surgery. I talked with my doctor we're just waiting for 1 year to see if my degrees increase or not so i can get it. I'm scared coz another doctor tried to talked me out of it by saying "this is not like lasik this is a serious surgery" whatever that means. Also i know there can be many negative outcomes but i also know its a small possibility and as you said im willing to take the risk coz the alternative is to keep on living with glasses .
Name of the music pls
How’s your experience so far after ICL?I Wanna do ICL but im really nervous
I’m still really happy I did ICL. Changed my life a lot and would do it anytime again. I was nervous too, but there’s no need to be. :)
Are the drops 3x a day for the rest of your life?
And also can you give an estimate to cost. I understand cost can vary based on everyone's condition but a ball park guess or what you paid can be a lot of help
Hey, I also did ICL and the drops are not for the rest of your life. It really depends on each case, but maybe you’ll need for a month (at least that was my case). And well the cost really depends but for me it was 2500 dollars for each eye. Hope that helps!
@@marley3543 how’s your vision at night?
At present time any side effects of icl in your eyes please answer
No, not at all. I am still very happy
@@sindyexplores how’s your vision at night?
@@davidpanqueva3899 it’s really good actually
How are ur eyes now
Any complications
Not at all. Still super happy with no complications
What was your eyesight number??
Do you feel the icl in your eyes ?
No, not at all
How many days it take you to recover?
depends but mostly 2-3 but you have to be careful not to rub your eyes
It was a really fast procedure. Overall 3-4 days
My surgery after 2 day's I will share my experience
Did you feel pain while surgery??
You're under general anesthesia and you won't feel a thing. When I woke up and the days after, I had no pain.
Do you need reading glasses after icl surgery
Depends on the lens that you chose. There are lenses that take care of that.
But not everyone is a good candidate for multifocus lenses.
Also if you are already 60+ a new artificial lens is the better solution at that age.
Go to a good doc.
So they only do one eye at a time
Yes it’s a 4 day procedure. Day 1 first eye day 2 rest day 3 second eye and day 4 rest.

Soon i will also get ICL. Cant wait and thanks for nice video🥸
Updates pls
So hard to describe but after one year you forget really what was before. do it.
@@nahkanukke oh thanks for reply happy for you. I'm turning 22 my doc said last year it's early for ICL or IOL, we need wait my late 20s early 30s and my parents also agree with her. But I'm afraid of about it get higher and will cause retinal detachment or glaucoma or something else. Hoping my myopia stop growing soon it was -9 last year. Now I want this. It's nice with contacts but without them... and contacts dry eye.
I just turned 22 and my doctor didnt tell me anything about my age. He never said its too early. Im about -6 of myopia and less of astigmatism @@shoxruzaaxmedova4500
@@shoxruzaaxmedova4500maybe he told you its early cause your mypia is still growing
