How Does Implantable Contact Lens work and what is a Bioptic procedure?
In this surgery, an implant is inserted into the eye and placed in front of the natural crystalline lens, to correct high degrees of refractive error. It is coupled with a Bladeless Intralase LASIK (hence the term “BIOPTIC” — two procedures) when required to fine tune the vision. The lens is left in place for years, until your develop cataracts. Then both the implant and your natuaral lens are removed.
