Implantable Collamer Lens Surgery (ICL) is a type of refractive surgery that involves implanting a flexible lens in the eye to correct vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The lens is made of collagen copolymer material and is smaller than a contact lens. It is inserted into the eye through a small incision, replacing a small amount of natural lens fluid. ICL does not affect the cornea or iris, making it an alternative option for those unable to undergo LASIK surgery.
