Why might the VISIAN ICL surgery not be completed on the day of surgery?
For the following reasons: (1) the pupil does not dilate widely enough to safely perform the procedure, in which case the surgery is canceled and rescheduled for another day; however, your physician will check your pupil dilation during the evaluation process to avoid this problem; (2) the Visian ICL ordered does not properly fit in which case the initial lens will be removed and the surgery rescheduled for another day with a different lens; and (3) a cataract develops during Visian ICL surgery (please refer to the question regarding Visian ICL complications).
