Lens Implant in Iran (Both eyes):

Description

Description

Intraocular lenses can be implanted in the eyes in order to correct severe nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism, without removing patients’ natural eye lenses. Phakic IOLs are clear implantable lenses that are surgically placed either between the cornea and the iris (the colored portion of your eye) or just behind the iris, without removing your natural lens.

Unlike contact lenses, you can't feel a phakic intraocular lens in your eye.

These lenses can correct nearsightedness ranging from -3.00 to -20.00 D.

Advantages of Lens Implant:

1. Correction of myopia up to high degrees

2. Higher accuracy in refractive error correction than laser procedures for greater diopters

3. The reversibility of the surgery by removing the lens

4. No changes in the corneal quality

5. No need for complex equipment during the surgery

6. Improved visual quality compared with glasses

7. Applicable to thin corneas

Procedures

Lens implantation is performed through a complete surgical procedure in the operation rooms but there is no need for hospitalization before and after the surgery:

• Anesthesia, which is usually performed in the form of general anesthesia.

• The ophthalmologist and the treatment team make an incision in the cornea.

• The ophthalmologist places the intraocular lens in the anterior chamber, in front of the iris and the natural lens.

• The incision is sutured delicately.

Further Information

• Prk, Femtosecond Lasik and SMILE are the most popular type of refractive surgeries. They are safe and effective. But not everyone is a good candidate for these surgeries. Potential reasons for not being a good LASIK candidate include: having too much nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism; having an unusually thin or irregularly shaped cornea; and having eye conditions such as keratoconus or dry eye syndrome.

• There are different types of intraocular lenses. Some of them are placed in the anterior chamber of the eyeball, behind the cornea and in front of the iris, the colored part of the eye. Some other lenses are placed in the posterior chamber of the eye on the patient's lens, behind the iris. Each of these lenses has its own advantages and disadvantages.

• There is a foldable version of Artisan Lenses called Artiflex, which is placed in the eye through a smaller incision and does not require any suturing.

• ICL lens is another type of foldable lens which needs no suturing. However, it is placed in the posterior chamber on the patient’s natural lens.

• Most people notice improved vision immediately following the phakic IOL procedure, but vision may be hazy or blurry with an increased sensitivity to light for the first few days. For some people, it can take two to four weeks for their vision to stabilize.

Risks and Benefits

Like any other surgery procedure, Lens implantation, may be followed by common and possible complications. The advances in ophthalmology and the expertise of ophthalmologists that Collaborate with the Exon Eye Department have greatly reduced the incidence rate of these complications. However, it’s good to mention some of them as a reminder:

- Glaucoma

- Cataract

- Lens Positioned Off-axis: If the center of the lens is not aligned with the patient’s visual axis, it is possible that his/her refractive error won’t be completely eliminated, or lead to astigmatism. This occurs when the difference is more than 0.25-0.50 mm.
