The ICL
The ICL is a very fine and delicate lens, which is implanted inside the eye over the normal lens to correct vision errors. Dr Khalil use the ICL to correct short sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. Naturally, he performs this after fully judging suitability. The ICL is the best choice he offers to his patients who require ultra-precision in their visual demands. That’s because it gives excellent vision quality when done properly.
What is the ICL?
The ICL (implanted contact lens, implantable collamer lens) is a synthetic lens to be implanted over the normal human lens (phakic intraocular lens). It is inserted between the iris and the eye’s natural lens. The ICL is capable of correcting a wide range of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism without the removal of corneal tissue.
The ICL is invisible & undetectable!
As the ICL is tiny and soft, it is folded up and injected inside the eye through in seconds through a tiny self sealing opening. Once injected, the ICL unfolds into position in the liquid between the iris and natural lens. ICL corrects the eyesight usually without any further treatment being necessary (the ICL can also be removed or replaced, if required, in another simple procedure).
THE ICL IS IMPLANTED THROUGH A VERY SMALL OPENING IN THE EYE, AND STABIISED IN ITS PLACE WITHIN FEW MINUTES
The ICL provides very predictable refractive outcomes and best quality of vision due to its placement inside the eye, as well as its optical performance. The lens is made of a superior lens material called Collamer® which provides unparalleled biocompatibility and is accepted by the eyes as not being a ‘foreign tissue’. This means that the body does not react or reject the ICL as a foreign body. Other special features of Collamer are its optical clarity and the flexibility and elasticity that allow it to be folded up and then to recover its correct shape in the liquid inside the eye. This lens has been successfully used since 1993, and still have undergone significant improvements since then.
Testimonials
Messages from some of Dr Khalil Eye Clinic friends, who had their eye operations done by Dr Khalil
I wish to convey my most sincere gratitude for the opportunity to have you perform my Lasik procedure. I could not have imagined any better care, patience and understanding, pre and post surgery, than that which I received from your team. I am thrilled with my eye sight. My friends here are amazed at my lasik story and I have found that I can see more clearly than they!!!
It is surely an apprehensive feeling when one decides for LASIK. I went through the same lately but after meeting Dr. Ahmed Khalil I knew I was in safe hands. My surgery was performed last week and today I sit infront of my laptop thanking Allah and Dr. Khalil for giving me such clear vision. Anyone out there thinking for LASIK should not think twice for choosing Dr. Ahmed Khalil, as eyes are a vital organ and deserve only the best. Thanks again ..... You are not only a great doctor but a great human being too
My name is Cedric Mouroux, I am from France... I had a myopia and a very strong astigmatism (-5.75 and -5.25),
I can really recommend Dr Khalil, he did an amazing work on my eyes and really changed my life, I wasn’t expecting such great results and my only regret is that I should have done it before! Thank you so much Doctor for what you did to me, and I am so glad I trusted you for this operation.
..Je peux vraiment recommander le Dr Khalil, il a fait une opération sur mes yeux parfaite et a vraiment change ma vie, je ne m’attendais pas a de tels résultats et je regrette juste de ne pas l’avoir fait plus tôt ! Merci beaucoup Docteur pour ce que vous avez fait pour moi et je suis vraiment content de vous avoir fait confiance pour cette opération très importante pour moi.
I want to thank you for being God's hand in giving me back my sight, such a bless that is worth a fortune. I can’t find words to express my gratitude and gratefulness. The procedure was a piece of cake, it was a painless journey that I feared so much until I was only comforted by your confident and calm voice explaining every step and making it so much easier. Your care about details is exceptional.
For my birthday,August 2010 i wanted perfect vision,little did i know my dream would come true. Laser eye surgery works like a charm! Its the best decision i ever made and the best birthday gift ever! I can see clearly now, it seems like a whole new world. I was scared and wary at first but the minute i met Dr. Khalil, all my fears were gone with the wind.
The procedure took about 15 minutes. There was no pain whatsoever. In fact the process was quite psychedelic and a bit like going into space and back again. For a few hours after the treatment, vision is blurred as the eyes readjust. But the benefits are soon realised with more improvements the following day.
My name is Aseel Rasul, an Iraqi living in Denmark, I can not but give my deep gratitude and appreciation to the angel of mercy, who did my LASIK vision correction operation. I was scared as I had never had any operation before. The calm and clever Dr Ahmad Khalil has made me say good bye to the use of glasses and contact lenses and all their inconveniences.
لمدة 21 عاماً عانيت خلالها من أرتداء النظاره بشكل متواصل لأننى لا أستطيع التركيز من غيرها وأحمد الله كثيراً على أننى أجريت عملية الليزك على يد أحد أكبر أساتذة فى العالم وهو الدكتور / أحمد خليل طبيب العيون القدير فالشكر لله أولاً ثم للدكتور أحمد على عنايته الفائقه بكل مرضاه وشرحه الوافى لكل خطوات العمليه . أستطيع الأن ممارسة حياتى بشكل طبيعى وخصوصاً اللعب مع أطفالى بكل سهوله ويسر دون الخوف عليهم من أصابتهم من نظارتى
I was really impressed with the personal and caring approach, from my initial consultation, through the Lasik surgery, and afterwards during follow-up checks from Dr. Khalil. Based upon my own experience I would definitely recommend Dr. Khalil’s clinic to anyone who is considering LASIK treatment and is concerned about getting a high quality service and personal approach.
It is a marvel that I can open my eyes in the morning and see clearly straight away without looking for my glasses. Diving is easier without a fear of losing my contact lens which has happened to me before. I can take my mask off underwater and open my eyes without any worries. It has definitely changed my life and make everyday living much easier. I have been recommending this operation to my friends.....
