Considering an implantable lens?

Implantable contact lenses are contacts that are actually implanted in the eye. They are an alternative to Lasik surgery and are becoming more popular for those not wanting the hassle of contacts or eye glasses.

An implantable contact lens is similar to the lens used for cataract surgery. They are used to correct vision of those people with high amounts of myopia. Since the lenses are still considered experimental, there are many incomplete studies. Currently, they are being used for those people who have eye prescriptions between -23.00 and +12.00. They are not recommended for anyone over the age of 60 since the recovery process is not always quick or easy. Since implantable lenses are still being investigated, the surgery is elective and not covered by most insurance companies. The surgery itself can cost $3,000 or more. Those who are considered a good candidate for an implantable contact lens are:

• Anyone with extreme to moderate nearsightedness
• Those who have thin corneas and are not eligible for Lasik eye surgery
• Patients with a history of dry eyes
• Those with large pupils

If an implantable lens is of interest to you, educate yourself on the risks involved and whether there are any eye surgeons in the area who perform the surgery. In addition to speaking with your eye care provider, you can also read informative newsletters and other literature to become more aware of the procedure.
