Poor vision is a major inconvenience in everyday life. Poor vision is mainly caused by refractive errors, which can lead to nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Today, we’ll look at lens implantation, also known as astigmatism and high myopia surgery.
What is ️ lens implantation?

LENS IMPLANTATION, also known as LENS IMPLANTATION TREATMENT, is a LENS IMPLANT in which a specialized artificial lens, such as ICL LENS, GLASE, or ALTIPLEX, is inserted into the patient’s eye to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. The process of correcting the refractive power of the entire eye is done in a timely manner, and because it does not involve the removal of the cornea like LASIK or LASIK, it can be performed on patients with thin corneas or severe myopia.
Lens implantation is the process of placing a lens under the dilated pupil, and the surgeon’s surgical skill and expertise are critical to the outcome of the surgery, as the lens must be placed in the correct position at the first time. Lens implantation must also be performed in accordance with FDA guidelines, and if these are followed closely, high myopia surgery can be performed safely without damaging the structures in the eye, freeing you from glasses and lenses.
Even if your surgery is successful, you will still need to visit your doctor regularly for check-ups, and you should refrain from rubbing your eyes, among other things.

Pros and cons of inserting a ️lens 
Even though the results of lens implantation are known to be successful, it is important to weigh the pros and cons and decide if it is right for you.
First of all, lens implantation has the advantage that it can be performed even for people with very high myopia or thin corneas who cannot have LASIK. Especially in the case of very high myopia, it is known as high myopia surgery because there is no risk from the process of cutting a large amount of cornea with a laser.
LENS IMPLANTATION TREATMENT also belongs to LENS IMPLANTATION, which can be performed even for people who complain of severe astigmatism. In order to correct astigmatism, a lens for astigmatism is inserted, or surgery is performed using an astigmatic incision.
The final advantage is that the lens can be replaced or removed after the lens implantation treatment, such as an ICL lens, because the surgery does not use a laser to burn or detach the cornea to correct it, so if you feel uncomfortable with your vision, you can replace it with a lens that fits your prescription. In addition, in the rare event that you experience an adverse reaction to the lens, it can be removed.
On the other hand, the disadvantage of lens implantation is that if the size of the specialty lens, such as an ICL lens, is small, it may cause cataracts. On the other hand, if the lens is large, it may interfere with the flow of aqueous humor and cause glaucoma. Also, if the infection after the iridotomy is neglected, iritis may occur, which requires constant care.
Another disadvantage is that astigmatism may not be completely corrected if the lens is misaligned with the astigmatism axis, and the surgeon’s expertise and proficiency will have an absolute impact on the outcome of the surgery.

So, who needs lens implantation? First of all, for those who need astigmatism or high myopia surgery, a lens implant using a specialized intraocular lens, such as an ICL lens, may be suitable. In addition, lens implantation treatment is less likely to cause side effects such as glare and dry eyes, so it may be a good choice for those who are worried about discomfort due to side effects after surgery.
GS eye center is the first in Korea to introduce Optiflex GLAZE, a posterior chamber intraocular lens that is inserted between the iris and the lens, enabling smooth waterproof drainage through the center hole, eliminating the need for an iridectomy, and a premium intraocular lens that provides a clearer quality of vision because it is made in an aspherical shape with a scientifically calculated refractive index of light.
It’s also a great option if you’re looking to get back to your daily routine quickly, as it’s a one-day procedure, meaning you can expect to see improvements in your vision the day after surgery.
And if your cornea is too thin or uneven for LASIK or LASIK, you can improve your vision with a LENS IMPLANT, which involves inserting a specialized artificial lens.
As such, LENS IMPLANTATION is characterized by a wide range of people who can proceed and a low probability of side effects. However, it is important to remember that, like any other surgery, thorough postoperative care and regular checkups are essential.
The outcome of lens implantation is highly dependent on the surgeon’s skill, which affects not only the length of the surgery but also the risk of damage and infection to the internal tissues of the eye. As such, lens implantation, which involves inserting a special artificial lens such as an ICL lens, requires delicate technical skills, so the skill of the medical staff must be checked first. In addition, postoperative care must be thorough. GS Ophthalmology, which has 18 years of continuous surgical experience since its opening, conducts systematic inspections to ensure thorough postoperative care.
When considering lens implantation treatment, it is important to check the expertise of the hospital you will be visiting, and the equipment and system to support the surgeon’s skills. GS Ophthalmology has a collaborative relationship with several institutions, including Seoul National University Hospital, and has the testing and surgical equipment to ensure a successful outcome. When you visit GS Ophthalmology for lens implantation, you will undergo a three-part comprehensive examination that will guide you through your current condition and what you need.
