Phakic Intraocular Lenses (PIOLs) are implanted in front of the natural lens to correct refractive errors without removing the eye's natural lens. In India, this treatment improves vision in patients with high myopia or hyperopia.

India is known for its advanced ophthalmology sector and affordable prices. PIOL surgery waiting time can be from 1 to 3 weeks.
