How is ICL Surgery Diagnosed?

Diagnosis involves a series of tests to determine whether you are a suitable candidate for ICL surgery. Your ophthalmologist may recommend:

  • To measure the sharpness of your vision.
  • To check if LASIK is unsafe due to thin cornea.
  • To ensure enough space in the eye for lens placement.
  • To determine the degree of nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
  • To detect any retinal issues before surgery.

Recovery Time

Most patients notice improved vision within 24 to 48 hours after ICL surgery. Complete stabilization of vision usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. The recovery is quick because no corneal tissue is removed or reshaped, unlike LASIK.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Before: The doctor will conduct eye measurements and recommend avoiding contact lenses for a few days. You will receive prescribed eye drops before surgery.

During: The procedure takes about 20 to 30 minutes per eye. The lens is inserted through a small incision and positioned behind the iris. Local anesthesia or numbing drops are used, so you won’t feel pain.

After: You may feel mild irritation or blurred vision for a few hours. Most patients return to normal activities within 2 to 3 days.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

  • Day 1: Mild blurriness and light sensitivity.
  • First Week: Vision improves significantly; avoid strenuous activities.
  • 2 Weeks: Eye stabilizes further; regular follow-up required.
  • 1 Month: Clear vision achieved; restrictions are lifted.

Post-Treatment Care:

  • Use prescribed antibiotic and lubricating eye drops.
  • Avoid rubbing your eyes.
  • Wear protective glasses outdoors.
  • Avoid swimming or dusty environments for at least 2 weeks.
  • Attend scheduled follow-up visits.
