ICL refractive correction in Tunis

ICL surgery involves inserting an implantable collamer lens inside the eye to correct myopia. Unlike Lasik, which modifies the curvature of the cornea, ICL involves implanting a lens between the iris and the crystalline lens. This lens enables light to be focused correctly on the retina, thus correcting myopia. If you'd like to benefit from an ocular implant in Tunis, Scope Medical Travel offers

Who is ICL surgery intended for ?

ICL surgery is often recommended for patients with severe myopia or a cornea too thin for Lasik. It offers effective visual correction with less risk of complications associated with corneal surface surgery. What's more, the procedure is reversible, enabling the lens to be removed if necessary, offering additional flexibility. However, ICL surgery is more invasive than Lasik, requiring a larger incision to insert the lens. Although the risks are low, there is a risk of infection, cataract, or lens displacement.
