Lenses will replace laser

 Lenses will replace laser

Ophthalmosurgery developing more secure methods of vision correction. Four-year observations show that the implantation of intraocular lenses has established itself as a safe and effective method for correcting high myopia, enabling predictable and stable result.

Today is very popular laser keratotomy, L azernaya vision correction , Better known as Lasik . It consists in that, after folding the top layer of the cornea with a laser exposure creates its new shape.

However, the risk keratoektazii (bulging of the cornea thinning areas) may restrict the operation in patients with high myopia or thin corneas have. Moreover, laser removal of tissue on a large plot can significantly degrade the refractive power of the cornea. It is for those patients whose refractive error can not be corrected by Laser vision correction   (with a high degree of farsightedness, nearsightedness and astigmatism, dry eye syndrome, a thin cornea) have been developed lenses   ICL (implantable lens kollamerovye). They are made of a biocompatible material kollamera, is a copolymer of human collagen and is best perceived by the eye. Implantation lenses also associated with certain complications including cataract and pigmentary glaucoma. They are supposed to examine in further studies.
This method can be a viable alternative to modern methods correction of myopia .
