Use of Phakic Lenses in the Treatment of Refractive Errors
Ophthalmologist Op. Dr. Lütfi Seyrek states that mild and moderate refractive errors can be corrected with Excimer Laser, but this procedure cannot be applied to high numbers. He mentions that for high numbers and individuals unsuitable for laser, intraocular phakic lens (IOL) application is recommended.
Intraocular Phakic Lens Surgery and Application Areas
Medicana Konya Hospital Ophthalmologist Op. Dr. Lütfi Seyrek mentions that phakic intraocular lens (IOL) surgery is preferred for patients with high numbers or those unsuitable for laser. He emphasizes that this surgery is particularly effective in cases like high myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.
Advantages of Phakic Lens Application
Ophthalmologist Op. Dr. Seyrek mentions the advantages of phakic intraocular lens application, such as minimal changes in the eye structure and reversibility. He states that this allows patients to achieve a permanent solution without any changes in the cornea.
Intraocular Phakic Lens Application Process and Postoperative Period
The patient, anesthetized with eye drops, undergoes a small incision in the operating room, and the phakic lens is placed behind the iris. The operation takes about 8-10 minutes per eye, and the procedure can be applied to the other eye of the patient on the same day or with a few days in between. This procedure, which does not require hospitalization, allows the patient to return to daily life immediately after.
