What is about ICL surgery,my son aged 22 years have 7-8 numbers in both eyes

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

  • ICL stands for implantable collamer lens (ICL), this artificial lens is permanently fitted inside the eye, and can work effectively for people with: myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism.
  • Somethings to know about this implant surgery:
    • It can correct nearsightedness.
    • It can be reversed (in other words these lens can be removed if your son doesn't gets used to them).
  • Be aware of risks associated with this surgery, if these implants are not fixed properly then the surgery can lead up to:
    • Eye disease (glaucoma, cataracts)
    • Vision loss or blurred vision
    • Detachment of retina
  • While the common side effects are: pain & discomfort
  • Your son may be prone to risks if he's:
    • on a course of medicines related to vision problems
    • affected by some condition that inhibits healing of wounds
    • fails to meet minimum requirements of endothelial cell count (doctor will inform)
  • Note: 7 and 8 is too far from zero and may mean that an individual is already at risk of retinal issues, so please put this across to the surgeon and know how prepared they are to handle any resulting consequences.
    Also discuss in advance, regarding what kind of risks will they compensate and in what manner.

 

Discuss with doctor at length, your son's health conditions & family history, pre-operative measures, post-operation care, his own experience and success rate with past patients.

 

Also consult other specialists if you need more guidance and/or options - Ophthalmologists in India.

Let us know if you have location specific requirements to find doctors, or if you have any other doubt, take care!

You might have a problem looking at distant objects which may indicate myopia (nearsightedness). Do not forget to visit an ophthalmologist who will carry out a full eye examination to know the reason behind your vision problems and to receive the correct treatment.

Retina detachment in Left eye doctor says hole occurs in retina screen , opretion must compalsary,but after operation results possibility 50% Is results possibility 100% after operation

Male | 70

The detachment of the retina could lead to symptoms such as the perception of flashes of light or having blurred vision. Surgical hole repair in the retina is the procedure that should be carried out. Post-operation, there is a 50% probability that the results will be better. Occasionally, the success rate can be 100%, but it is not a sure thing. However, it is very crucial to stick to your doctor's directions and take proper care of your eye after the surgery.

Dear Sir/Madam, I live abroad. I cannot see because the cornea and optic nerves of my right eye have not developed since birth, and the colored part of my cornea is smaller than my seeing eye. Is there a treatment method in your clinic that will help me see? Or do you have an application that will provide the same appearance as my other eye? Best regards

Male | 18

You have a congenital problem in which one of your eyes, the right one, has not developed fully. This can result in visual impairment or even blindness in that eye. Regrettably, in your case where the cornea and optic nerve have not developed, no treatment can bring back vision. Nevertheless, some cosmetic options like colored contact lenses or prosthetic eyes can enhance the look of your eye and make it more similar to your other eye.

When I work out at the gym, my eye starts to swell after the workout. I consulted an eye specialist, who said it’s an allergy. However, when I jog or walk outside, nothing happens. In the gym, if I lift weights, even light ones, my eye starts to swell later. When I do floor exercises like push-ups, I feel like there's a foreign object in my eye, causing a twitching sensation. This only happens with exercises that involve pressure.looking like muscle weakness.It also happens after swimming. This issue never occurred before, and I’ve been doing these activities for the past four years without any problems. I have consulted various doctors and spent a lot of money, but I have not found a solution.

Male | 24

You might be having allergic reactions triggered by your exercise. When you do certain workouts at the gym, like lifting weights or floor exercises, your eye swells up. This could be due to allergens at the gym or materials from the equipment. It's good that outdoor activities don't cause this problem. To prevent the symptoms, try wearing protective eyewear (goggles) at the gym or using antihistamine eye drops before you work out. It's a good idea to consult with an allergist for a complete evaluation and management plan.

Aap ke bhai ki aankh mein jo mazid pareshani hai, wo samajh sakta hoon. Aankh mein lens ki kami se dikhne ki mushkil ho sakti hai, lekin iski achhi ilaj kiya ja sakta hai. Lazer se surgery ek effective option hai, jo aankh ki kharabi ko theek karne mein madadgar hai. Yeh safe hai, lekin aapke bhai ko kisi experienced eye specialist se consult karna zaroori hai, jo unki specific halat ka behtar ilaaj bata sakein. Aapko chinta nahi karni chahiye, waqt par ilaj se achi results mil sakte hain.

My maid is having cataract her doctor told her that it is on the verge of rupture..she is unable to pay for the operation. Is it possible to get her operated without much charges?

Female | 40

The reason behind may have been the presence of clouded vision, night time blackout, and light sensitivity. In a person's life, cataracts appear when the eye gets a cloudy lens due to age or specific health issues. To have the problem rectified, the maid should be fully followed up with a health care provider, it would serve as an interference to have avoidable ruptures or another form of complication. Significant discounts or financial aid programs are also available for those in need of medical services in many clinics or hospitals. It is a good idea for her to reach out to the local health facilities and the help of charity groups.

My eyes no in right eye -1.75 and left-0.75 I am wear the glasses ?

Male | 21

It sounds like you have a refractive error, which means your eyes may not focus light correctly. The numbers you mentioned indicate mild nearsightedness and farsightedness, respectively. Wearing glasses can help correct your vision, allowing you to see clearly at various distances. It's essential to wear them consistently for the best results. If you experience any discomfort or changes in your vision, I encourage you to consult with an eye care professional. They can provide a thorough examination and ensure your prescription is accurate, giving you the best possible vision correction.
