An ICL is recommended when laser treatment is not possible, such as in cases of too thin corneas or dry eyes. An additional artificial lens is then implanted in the eye. You can simply imagine it as a soft contact lens being placed in front of the natural lens, behind the iris. The lens is not visible to the naked eye. Because the lens is very flexible, it can be inserted through a small opening of 2.8mm, allowing for a smooth recovery. Rejection is not possible since the ICL consists of material that naturally occurs in the body. Additionally, the lens contains a UV filter that provides extra protection against sunlight.

The minimum age for ICL treatment is 21 years. The aim is to treat nearsightedness or farsightedness. The condition for treatment is that the spectacle strength has been stable (<1 diopter change) for the last two years. The costs are € 2.750 per eye without correction of the cylinder. With correction, the costs are € 2.950 per eye. The treatment is performed by one of our specialised surgeons, Drs Robin Ollivier or Prof Dr Rudy Nuijts. The treatment itself takes about 10 minutes per eye. This treatment also includes 2 years of medication, follow-up checks and any re-treatments.

Yes, the treatment is safe. However, all treatments come with some risks. Luckily, these have become rare due to multiple scientific innovations. The risk of infection is even lower than when wearing contact lenses.
No, the treatment is not painful. The eye is numbed with drops, but you will still feel touch, pressure and running water.
No, for safety reasons we treat one eye at a time. The second eye is treated either one day or one week later.
This varies per eye. Vision is usually completely restored after 1-3 days.
In some cases, insurance providers cover (part of) the treatment. We will review with you whether you are eligible for this.
