Severe Myopia
Advanced options for patients whose nearsightedness is too high for standard laser correction.
Treating Severe Myopia with Implantable Lens Solutions
When myopia is too high or the cornea is not ideal for LASIK, implantable collamer lens surgery can offer strong visual improvement while preserving corneal tissue.
What is the treatment approach?
Severe myopia is often treated with implantable lenses placed inside the eye without removing the natural lens.
This option is especially useful when laser correction would not be safe or would not deliver the best quality of vision.
Who may benefit?
Patients with high myopia beyond LASIK suitability ranges.- People with thin corneas who still want surgical vision correction.
- Cases requiring reversible or tissue-sparing refractive treatment.
- Patients seeking sharper quality of vision with stable planning.
Preoperative planning
- Accurate refraction and full eye examination.
- Measurement of anterior chamber depth and lens sizing.
- Corneal and retinal assessment before surgery.
- Discussion of safety, expected outcomes, and postoperative care.
After the procedure
- Vision often improves quickly during the first days after surgery.
- Most patients return to routine activity shortly after the procedure.
- Regular follow-up is important to monitor lens position and eye pressure.
- Long-term visual stability is one of the major benefits in suitable cases.
Advantages of this option
- Suitable for many patients who are not good LASIK candidates.
- Preserves corneal tissue while improving visual quality.
- Careful surgical planning focused on safety and accuracy.
