1. How exactly is ICL implantation surgery performed? How ICL surgery is specifically done involves a lot of medical issues. Simply put, it is done under surface anesthesia (that is, a little anesthetic, no need for injections) by implanting a very soft and delicate ICL crystal, similar to an injection, into the eye through a needle-point instrument, placing it in the ciliary sulcus (behind the iris, a very hidden place in the eye) and fixing it, the ICL does not touch other intraocular tissues in the eye, it is very stable and quiet, so it is very safe and the surgery takes only 3-5 minutes. Many people can feel the visual effect immediately after the surgery, and it is easy to remove the ICL if there is another need in the future. Most people do not feel pain and discomfort during the surgery, except for a slight soreness and swelling and brighter light (necessary for the doctor to see clearly). 2. How many incisions are made during the surgery? What is the size of each incision? The main temporal incision is about 2.8mm, and the two 1mm punctures are located at the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock positions. All incisions are tiny and self-closing, and no sutures are needed. And Dr. Wang, who has a super large volume of surgery, now only needs to make one main incision, and the other two are completely omitted, which is more minimally invasive. 3. Will the surgery damage other tissues of the eye and is ICL surgery risky? There are risks in any surgery, but ICL is a very minimally invasive, low-risk and controllable surgery, the probability is extremely small (except for those who are not skilled in surgery), strict pre-operative examination, skillful surgical techniques, and close post-operative observation are the elements of successful surgery! Even if it really doesn’t fit, as long as it is removed in time, it will not cause any harm to the eyes, and you can wear glasses or do other surgeries instead. 4. What is the best age for surgery? Is the younger the better? The best recommended age for correction is 21-55 years old, (slightly younger, but if the prescription is stable; or slightly older, if the crystal is clear, it can also be considered, but the doctor needs to judge), in a sense, the younger you do it, the better, because it means that the sooner you enjoy the convenience of removing the lens, the sooner the quality of life is improved, the better for your eyes, and it lasts longer.
