i had icl surgery, and i love it. healed within a couple of days. the only issues i’ve had are halos. they were bad a couple of years but not so bad later. night driving can still be a pain in the ass sometimes though. make sure you have the surgery done by a good doctor. i asked lots of people for recommendations and got multiple names. when i asked my regular eye doctors for recommendations and other doctors too, they all gave me the same name.
I had ICL surgery 8 years ago and loved it. My vision two years ago though started to naturally get worse as I got older, so because of my small prescription (-1.0) I was an excellent candidate for Ortho-K, or corneal molding. I'm back to seeing perfectly and don't regret having had ICL.
Hi all, I had ICL surgery about a year ago and documented the experience along with a few update videos ruclips.net/video/0RJGJqt45Dc/видео.html Unfortunately a few months later the lens in my right eye rotated and I got blurred vision and infection. I documented that as well ruclips.net/video/552EJmAUaSE/видео.html The right lens was replaced and everything is back to normal again. Hope my videos help!
In summary...laser is less risky than ICL You don't have to insert a lens that can cause problems inside the eye. You simply modify cornea externaly so that the patient can see fine.
Not sure if Lasik is safer than icl. Icl has a very similar success rate (a "bullet-proof procedure", as mentioned by the doctor in this video), and icl is reversible. You mention that laser keeps the eye the way it's supposed be. But that's only true if you consider the externally-deleted part of the eye cornea as what the eye is supposed to be. The laser is still an unnatural intervention. ICL, if done correctly, from what I have heard (doesn't make me any expert), implants a lens that the body wouldn't reject. Still, an unnatural addition, but not necessarily less or more natural than what the Lasik does. EDIT: you said laser would keep the eyes how they've "always been", not how they're"supposed to be". My mistake. My question becomes -- since a laser burns off part of the cornea, it thus makes the cornea decidedly Not how it's always been. What are you basing your statement on? I'm legitimately curious, not casting aspersions on you.
@@DuncanWLievi reversible and removable aren't the same. You can take the lens out but your eye will be different, two incisions, two surgeries. Lasik shapes your cornea by removing tissue, orto k doesn't remove that tissue. If you get ICL you'll have to be monitored as long as the implant is inside your eye (endothelial cell loss count, distance between crystalline lens and ICL, ...) Whereas if you get lasik that won't be the case. Besides with orto k and laser you will not have risk of glaucoma and catarat in a long term basis EDIT: I say you can keep your eye they way it's always been when I'm referring to Orto k, not Lasik (it changes your eye's corneal shape)

I'm curious if it could be performed on one eye at a time or is it required that both eyes get surgery on the same day... for those who don't have someone to drive them to & from....
As far as I know that's typically because ICLs have been found to be associated with early cataract development (i don't think that's definitively proven, and association weaker with newer ICLs). I think the "age limit" is a FDA thing in the US, and not your doctors' fault. Lens replacement might be an option though. In younger people that means robbing them of near focus (taking out the natural flexible lens and replacing it with a stiff artificial one), but that's not as big of a deal in older people because near vision is usually already poor, AND you basically eliminate future cataract risk at the same time. -Not a medical professional

What was your eye vision before icl?

Yes, but laser surgery is not suitable for people having thinner cornea and high eye sight, it causes dry eye problem and other corneal side effects.

With laser if you rub your eyes too hard you could collapse your cornea and go blind.
Tks for the video. What type of ultrasound equipment is capable of measure that post iris diameter?

It has to be one eye at a time
They price these surgeries per eye
I’m 54 and the doctors keep telling me I’m too old to be a candidate!
Keep asking around. I hope you get the clear vision you're looking for.
Old people aren't worth spending resources on you'll be dead in a couple of years anyway.

Probably not. At your age it is likely that you will need a new lens anyway - so you can correct it with a premium lens.
