- Dr. Anthony Lombardo of Eye Surgeons of Indiana discusses the ICL: Implantable Collamer Lens.
Eye Surgeons of Indiana provides the latest in premium technology to serve all of our patients’ vision correction needs with the best possible outcomes.
We offer the next generation in advanced vision correction with the Visian ICL (implantable collamer lens).
With a 20-year legacy of success, more than 1,000,000 Visian ICLs have been implanted in patients worldwide. The Visian ICL is a microscopically thin, soft lens implanted in the eye to permanently correct moderate or severe nearsightedness and astigmatism.
In fact, based upon the clinical trials 99% of patients were satisfied with their new found Visian ICL vision.
The Visian ICL is made of an advanced soft-material composed of 100% biocompatible collagen copolymer. It provides UV protection and permanent vision correction, while giving patients a quality of vision that is sharper, clearer than many can achieve with glasses or contacts.
Additionally, unlike LASIK, the Visian ICL is removable, if necessary, and the procedure does not permanently alter the shape of your cornea.

Dr. Lombardo is the best.
Hello from Malaysia. I’m set for icl on 20th (right) and 21st (left) July. Yeah next week 😉 Tqvm for sharing this vdo. Kinda worried though.
What is your opinion on ICL and engaging with contact sports? Boxing, MMA , jiujitsu
Should be okay. I don’t think it puts the eye at any more risk than without an ICL.
- Dr. Lombardo
Thanks for the video. Can I be sedated during the process?
Usually you’ll be given a sedative that’s either oral or through an iv. From what I understand they can’t completely sedate you because your eyes will roll back. Your eye will be numbed as well from numbing drops
Can someone have too much astigmatism to get ICL surgery?
I’ve had my ICL surgery the 23rd of July. After surgery I started experiencing double vision (I can see texts on my screen up to 4 times). After a week I started seeing rainbows under white street lights. No halo’s just a big streak of multiple colors red/ green/ blue under every source of white light. They tested my IOP, which was fine 17 in both eyes. And told me it was normal to experience anything like this and is possible due to the ICL. I’m worried and I don’t think it is normal, what should I do?
Hi how are you now ?
How do you feel now? Is that settled?
Hi u feel right now ?
Update? @manjapetridou8696
What is the risk of pigment dispersion syndrome assuming PIs are performed first?
Pigment dispersion syndrome is not something I’ve seen in this setting.

What about farsighted hyperopia with astigmatism?
Unfortunately, the ICL is not available in hyperopic prescriptions. Dependent on your age, there may be other excellent options.

@@eyesurgeonsofindiana6198What about IOL is that the same thing as ICL, im 22yr
@@swift1211 An ICL is a type of IOL. The best procedure (if there is one) depends on individual anatomy.
Thats quite intereresting because in rest of the world they apply same brand Visan icl on hyperopia hmm??
I’m 47 … I read that you must be between the ages of 18-45 😢
2 days post op on right eye. You mention patients can usually see very well right after surgery. Is there concern if this is not the case? My vision has improved some, but still blurry/cloudy. My surgeon saw me the day after and didn't seem concerned, but everything I've researched mentions almost immediate vision correction. I was at 20/50 the day after surgery. I don't feel there has been much improvement since. I have another follow up the day before my left eye is scheduled (3 days from now).
How's things going now?
my situation is same my surgeon also doesn't seem to care at all
I had my Visian ICL Toric surgery 2018. In Serbia, Belgrade. I am very happy with the result. I had high diopters, myopia and astigmatism. I have a question. What happens with that ICL lens if cataracts occur over time? Does he stays in the eye after natural lens is going out or we need some kind of new lenses? Thank you! Sorry for my english...🙂
Your English is very good. We have an active ICL practice and welcome your question.
Cataracts can occur in those with ICLs just like they would in those without ICLs. When patients who have ICLs implanted need cataract surgery, both the ICL as well as the cataract are removed, and a new lens is put in place. This allows good vision.
@@eyesurgeonsofindiana6198 Thank you very much for the answer ! 🙂
@@eyesurgeonsofindiana6198 after cataract surgery? I'll need new ICL lens in?
Do you remove the original lens or just put the new lens over the original lens. What if the original lens is bad.
The implanted lens goes over top of your lens
@@stealthyone8282ify so there is no remedy if the original natural lens goes bad
@@manojbhatia8702 i think they can replace it like what they do when cataract happens..
The original lens is kept and the Visian ICL placed over it. If the original lens is bad, we address that before doing the ICL surgery.
@@manojbhatia8702 they remove the ICL, remove the cataract/bad original lens, and then reinsert the ICL as far as I know
why no one speaks about peripheral iridotomy. i did it and i regret doing icl surgery my vision with glasses were so much better
How is your eyesight now?
Icl or contact lens, which is better option?
Is it better to get icl before or after pregnancy?
In most cases, this is a personal preference for the patient. We like to avoid this type of elective surgery during pregnancy and nursing though. Thanks!

Hey doc please i have keratoconus stage 2 idid cross-linking CXL on both eyes
My doctor say i need ro put ICl lenses but unfortunately when he did
Radio topograhoy he said the size of the anterieur chambre of the eye is average 2.7 mm and when we implant the icl lenses it may cause eye pressure and we must take it off
Im confused what do you think should i do it or no please ??
Think twice before you do it. I have done one eye and I see everything distorted. Not worth the money to put a contact inside the eyes instead of wearing them.
Hi doctor this is sari from India I have facing problem this phone last 8 years my 2 to eyes I can't afford the money please help me doctor
