Some people come in for an assessment with the intention of having LASIK, only to find that their corneas are relatively thin, their refractive error is high, or the structure of their eyes is not suitable for laser corneal reshaping.
This does not necessarily mean that they must continue wearing glasses or contact lenses indefinitely. Today, another option for vision correction is ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens), a procedure in which an additional lens is implanted inside the eye.
Unlike LASIK, which uses a laser to reshape the cornea, ICL involves placing a small lens inside the eye while preserving the natural lens and the existing corneal structure. It is therefore another option that an ophthalmologist may consider for some patients with myopia, astigmatism, relatively high refractive errors, or limitations that make LASIK unsuitable.
At the Laser Vision Center, Bangkok Eye Hospital, several implantable lens options are available, including ICL, ICL Toric, No-Blade ICL and Presby ICL for age-related presbyopia, allowing treatment to be selected according to each individual's refractive error, eye structure and lifestyle.

Key Features of ICL Implantable Lens Surgery
Important features of ICL to know
Who Should Consider an ICL Assessment?
People with limitations for other vision correction methods may consider undergoing an ICL assessment.
However, ICL is not suitable for everyone. A comprehensive eye assessment and consultation with an ophthalmologist are required to determine whether lens implantation is appropriate for each individual.
Why Choose ICL at the Laser Vision Center, Bangkok Eye Hospital?
There is no single vision correction method that is right for everyone. Some people may be suitable for LASIK, some for small-incision techniques, while others may be more suitable for ICL.
At the Laser Vision Center, Bangkok Eye Hospital, a range of vision correction technologies is available, including PRK, TransPRK, SBK LASIK, FemtoLASIK, SMILE Pro™2.0, NanoLASIK, NanoRelex®, ICL and No-Blade ICL. This allows the ophthalmologist to select an approach based on the actual structure of the patient's eyes rather than relying on only one technology.
Laser Vision has nearly 30 years of experience and has provided vision correction care for more than 100,000 eyes, within a specialized eye hospital with more than 40 ophthalmologists and 8 specialized eye centers.
Frequently Asked Questions About ICL
How Is ICL Different From RLE?
ICL involves placing an additional lens inside the eye while preserving the natural lens. RLE involves removing the natural lens and replacing it with an intraocular lens.
Is ICL Suitable for People With Thin Corneas?
People with relatively thin corneas may be considered for ICL because the procedure does not require laser removal of corneal tissue to correct the refractive error. However, other structures inside the eye must also be assessed to determine whether ICL is appropriate.
Can an ICL Be Removed After It Has Been Implanted?
An ICL can be removed or replaced in the future if there is a medical indication. However, removal is still a surgical procedure and must be assessed by an ophthalmologist.
Which Is Better, ICL or LASIK?
No single method is suitable for everyone. The choice depends on refractive error, corneal thickness and shape, internal eye structure, age, eye health and each individual's visual needs.
