ICL

ICL / Implantable Lens in Patna

Want freedom from glasses but aren’t suitable for LASIK or SMILE? ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) may be an option for selected patients. At Patna Eye Centre, we provide personalized evaluation and guidance for patients considering implantable lens-based vision correction.

Unlike laser procedures that reshape the cornea, an ICL is a specially designed lens placed inside the eye to correct refractive errors while preserving the natural cornea.

Who May Consider ICL?

ICL may be considered for suitable patients with:

  • High myopia (short-sightedness)

  • Certain cases of astigmatism

  • Stable spectacle prescription

  • Adequate eye health and appropriate eye anatomy

  • Unsuitability or preference against corneal laser procedures

Benefits of ICL

  • No corneal tissue removal

  • Can provide high-quality vision correction

  • Suitable for certain higher prescriptions

  • Natural corneal structure is preserved

  • Removable or replaceable when medically appropriate

  • May reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses

Your ICL Evaluation

Before recommending ICL surgery, our ophthalmologist performs a detailed assessment of your:

  • Eye health

  • Refractive error

  • Corneal condition

  • Anterior chamber and eye anatomy

  • Overall suitability for an implantable lens

The right vision-correction procedure depends on your individual eyes. ICL is not suitable for everyone, so a comprehensive examination is essential before making a decision.

At Patna Eye Centre, Dr. Sheeraz Hassan provides personalized guidance to help eligible patients understand their vision-correction options.
