Phakic ICL - savior for eyes with high myopia and astigmatism, thin cornea
Each person's eye structure can be different in terms of corneal thickness, curvature, pupil size or degree of refractive error, so not everyone is eligible for laser myopia surgery.
Phakic ICL is a method of treating refractive errors by placing an intraocular lens (ICL), soft, flexible, safe and highly biocompatible with the human body, behind the iris and in front of the lens through a 3mm incision at the edge of the cornea.
Because it does not interfere with the corneal structure, this method is suitable for cases of high myopia, thin cornea or abnormal morphology, helping to achieve stable, sustainable 10/10 vision without causing dry eyes after surgery.
However, one of the biggest challenges of Phakic ICL surgery is choosing the lens size. Previously, medical facilities relied on the lens manufacturer's calculation and estimation system to design the appropriate ICL.
There is a potential risk of vault misalignment (the distance between the lens and the crystalline lens), which can lead to complications such as glaucoma, cataracts, the lens not resting in the eye or decreased vision after surgery.
Why is Phakic ICL Precision+ a breakthrough in refractive surgery?
Phakic ICL Precision+ is an upgraded version of the traditional Phakic ICL thanks to the combination with the Casia 2 imaging diagnostic system (TOMEY - Japan).
With comprehensive 3D and CT scanning capabilities, applying artificial intelligence (AI) computing technology, doctors can proactively design the appropriate intraocular lens size for their needs, minimizing risks and maximally personalizing each patient; Comprehensive screening and automatic eye movement tracking, improving the accuracy of ICL lens size calculations by more than 90% compared to conventional methods; At the same time, measuring the vault (distance between the lens and the crystalline lens) in detail, ensuring the lens fits perfectly in the eye.
This method helps doctors detect early and predict abnormalities such as narrow anterior chamber angle, calculate the risk of corneal contribution... proactively predict risks before surgery, avoid complications, control and predict results after surgery. So that patients not only achieve optimal vision, recover quickly, but also minimize the risk of recurrence and enjoy clear, vivid image quality immediately after surgery.
Superior to laser methods, ICL Precision+ does not change the curvature or thickness of the cornea, optimal for people with thin corneas, high myopia and astigmatism, or need stable vision for specific jobs such as pilots, athletes, etc.
This is also the optimal treatment method for complex astigmatism. With a perfectly accurate lens parameter measurement system, along with a strict surgical procedure transferred from Hoeikai Corporation (Japan), ICL Precision+ helps patients achieve optimal vision and completely treat astigmatism.
Hong Ngoc - the first unit in Vietnam to deploy ICL Precision+
Hong Ngoc Eye Center is the first unit in Vietnam to deploy ICL Precision+ technology combined with Casia 2 imaging diagnostic system. ICL Precision+ is directly performed by Dr. Dinh Thi Hoang Anh - Head of Ophthalmology Department (Hong Ngoc General Hospital), a refractive surgery expert, owns 10 international patents and has studied for more than 14 years in Russia, the US and Japan, and stands out for its ability to handle complex and unusual myopia cases.
Doctor Hoang Anh affirmed: “ICL Precision+ surgery is an advanced version that requires a close combination of doctor's qualifications, modern technology and standardized procedures to ensure safety and maximum vision efficiency for each case.”
ICL Precision+ is not only a treatment method but also a leading ophthalmic solution today. Marking an important development in the field of ophthalmology, at the same time demonstrating a commitment to raising the standards of eye disease treatment for the community, aiming to protect and improve the vision of Vietnamese people.
