Sometimes, traditional <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/swisslaser.pl\/en\/laser-vision-correction\/\">laser vision correction<\/a> is simply not an option. And that&#8217;s when salvation appears: <strong>phakic lenses<\/strong>. This is an innovation that gives you the chance for <strong>lasting, excellent visual acuity<\/strong>. Our task is to tell you about it honestly, step by step, building your trust in this method. Let&#8217;s begin the journey to better vision!<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What will you learn from the text below?<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What characterizes phakic lenses and how do they work?<\/strong> These are special, flexible lenses that we gently implant without disturbing your natural lens, allowing the eye to continue to naturally &#8220;zoom&#8221; (accommodate).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Who is an ideal candidate for phakic lens implantation?<\/strong> We are primarily thinking of people with truly significant refractive errors who do not qualify for laser surgery \u2013 this could be your second and best chance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>What are the most important qualification criteria for the procedure at Swisslaser?<\/strong> We look at your age (ideally $18$-$55$ years), check if the refractive error is stable, and ensure there are no serious health contraindications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>What advanced diagnostic tests are performed in our clinics?<\/strong> We use cutting-edge technology, such as $text{ANTERION\u00ae}$ and $text{Retina Scan Duo \u2122}$, to measure every millimeter of the eye and plan the procedure with pharmaceutical precision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>What emotional and practical benefits does this change bring?<\/strong> It&#8217;s simple: you gain freedom. The daily burden disappears, and comfort, self-confidence, and incredible quality of vision emerge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Phakic Lenses \u2013 A Modern Method of Vision Correction<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Phakic Lenses?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think of <strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/swisslaser.pl\/en\/lens-surgery\/phakic-lenses\/\">phakic lenses<\/a> (ICL)<\/strong> as internal, <strong>permanently implanted contact lenses<\/strong>. These are clever, <strong>flexible intraocular implants<\/strong> that we place in the eye, but \u2013 importantly \u2013 <strong>we preserve your natural lens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Structure and composition<\/strong>: What are they made of? From a material called <strong>Collamer<\/strong>. It sounds futuristic, but it&#8217;s a <strong>biocompatible collagen-based material<\/strong> that your eye will love and tolerate perfectly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Preservation of the eye&#8217;s natural abilities<\/strong>: This is key! Because we do not remove the natural lens, <strong>your eye still accommodates excellently<\/strong>, meaning it easily &#8220;switches&#8221; from distance to near vision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Common name<\/strong>: We often call them <strong>&#8220;implantable contact lenses&#8221;<\/strong> \u2013 and that pretty much hits the nail on the head. The difference is that you don&#8217;t remove them. But remember, if the need arises, <strong>we can remove or replace them<\/strong>!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Qualification for Phakic Lens Implantation<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Swisslaser, we prioritize safety, which means we take the qualification process extremely seriously. We want you to be sure that this is the best option for you.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Indications for the Procedure<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When do we consider phakic lenses at all? Mainly when the refractive error is so significant that <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/swisslaser.pl\/en\/laser-vision-correction\/\">laser vision correction<\/a> is too risky or impossible due to corneal parameters.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Range of corrected refractive errors<\/strong>:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Are you myopic?<\/strong> We correct errors from $-0.5$ up to $-18.0$ diopters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do you have hyperopia?<\/strong> We can manage from $+0.5$ to $+10.0$ diopters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Astigmatism?<\/strong> Yes, up to $+6.0$ or $-6.0$ diopters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Age criterion<\/strong>: We are interested in the range <strong>from $18$ to $55$ years<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Other key conditions<\/strong>: Is your <strong>refractive error stable<\/strong>? We must check that! And if you have <strong>presbyopia<\/strong>, we have <strong>multifocal lenses\/$text{EDOF}$<\/strong> for you that will help you see excellently both near and far.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contraindications for Phakic Lens Implantation<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let&#8217;s remember about health. Unfortunately, in certain situations, we must say &#8220;stop&#8221;:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Eye anatomy<\/strong> (e.g., too shallow anterior chamber depth).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Serious diseases<\/strong>: Unstabilized autoimmune diseases, active eye diseases (such as advanced glaucoma or retinal detachment), or infections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Life stage<\/strong>: Pregnancy and breastfeeding. Give yourselves and us time after this special period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Qualification Procedure and Pre-operative Examinations<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Implantation of <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/swisslaser.pl\/en\/lens-surgery\/phakic-lenses\/\">phakic lenses<\/a> requires surgical precision, but the success of the procedure relies on <strong>thorough pre-operative diagnostics<\/strong>. It is precise measurements, often using advanced biometry, that determine safety and final visual acuity. At Swisslaser, we make no compromises on technology&#8221; \u2013 <strong>says Dr. Victor Derhartunian<\/strong>. He and our team take care of every detail!<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Initial and Qualification Examinations<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this stage, crucial for excluding contraindications, we perform:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-d nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Patient interview<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Computerized vision examination (Autorefractometry)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keratometry<\/strong> and <strong>Corneal Topography<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pachymetry<\/strong> (corneal thickness measurement)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Detailed Pre-operative Examinations<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, high-tech comes into play. We need to collect data to perfectly select the lens:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-d nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tonometry<\/strong>: We check intraocular pressure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ocular biometry<\/strong>: We measure your eye in centimeters, and even micrometers, including anterior chamber depth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dynamic pupillography<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Visual acuity examination, subjective refraction, binocular vision parameters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cycloplegia<\/strong>: We dilate the pupils and &#8220;paralyze&#8221; accommodation to determine your <strong>actual<\/strong> refractive error.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technologies Used in Diagnostics<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are proud of our machines. Without them, this precision would not be possible:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-d nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>$text{ANTERION\u00ae}$ Platform<\/strong>: This is our command center! It combines tomography, corneal topography, and most importantly \u2013 super-precisely <strong>calculates the power of the implanted lens<\/strong> ($text{IOL}$ calculation).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>$text{Retina Scan Duo \u2122}$ Device<\/strong>: This is both a $text{OCT}$ scanner and a fundus camera. We use it to examine the posterior segment of the eye and ensure it is healthy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Patient Preparation for Examinations<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want the measurements to be perfect, you must help us. These are simple rules, but crucial:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-d nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Necessity of discontinuing contact lenses<\/strong>: Why? Because contact lenses temporarily change the shape of the cornea. You must give it time to return to its natural form. Discontinue soft lenses for <strong>2 weeks<\/strong>, hard lenses for <strong>4 weeks<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Effect of pupil-dilating drops<\/strong>: After the examination, your eyes will be very sensitive to light, and vision will be poorer. <strong>We implore you, come with someone who will drive you home safely!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Phakic Lens Implantation<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This procedure is an investment in the future, offering:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"nv-cv-d nv-cv-m wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Freedom from external correction<\/strong>: No more buying glasses and lenses!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Preservation of the eye&#8217;s natural accommodation<\/strong>: You see sharply everywhere, without losing natural &#8220;power.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reversibility of the procedure<\/strong>: If something changes, we can always intervene. This is a safe option for years to come.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is phakic lens implantation safe?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely. Remember that this is a procedure supported by years of research. Our precise qualification and premium equipment minimize risk to virtually zero.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does the procedure take and when will I see clearly?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The procedure itself is really short \u2013 typically $15-30$ minutes per eye. And clarity? Many people see fantastically the very next day!<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will I feel the lens in my eye?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, not at all! The lens is placed deep inside the eye. It is made of a material that is completely neutral to the body \u2013 it is imperceptible.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if my vision deteriorates after the procedure?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phakic lenses are reversible.<\/strong> If the refractive error changes, we will simply <strong>replace the lens with a new one of a different power<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do phakic lenses correct presbyopia (reading difficulties)?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Yes.<\/strong> Special <strong>multifocal models<\/strong> of phakic lenses are designed so that you see excellently both far and near.
