Implantable Collamer Lenses (ICLs)
Advanced Vision Correction by Consultant Ophthalmologist in Leeds
If you’re looking for long-term freedom from glasses or contact lenses but are not suitable for laser eye surgery, ICL implantation offers an excellent alternative. Performed by expert ophthalmic surgeon Mr. Ahmed Bardan, this procedure involves implanting a specially designed lens inside the eye, without removing your natural lens, to correct refractive errors and significantly enhance vision.
This treatment is ideal for people with high prescriptions, thin corneas, or dry eyes who may not benefit from LASIK or PRK.
What Are Implantable Collamer lenses?
ICL is a clear, artificial lens placed inside the eye to correct vision, while preserving your natural lens. Unlike cataract surgery or refractive lens exchange, the eye’s natural lens is left intact, allowing younger patients to maintain their ability to focus naturally.
Who Is Suitable for ICL?
-
You may be a candidate if you:
-
Are aged 21–45 with stable vision
-
Have moderate to high myopia (short-sightedness)
-
Are unsuitable for laser eye surgery
-
Have thin corneas or dry eyes
-
Want to reduce or eliminate glasses/contact lenses
-
Do not have existing cataracts
Suitability is confirmed during comprehensive eye assessment with Mr. Bardan.
