Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
The most commonly used method to correct the refraction error is LASIK But LASIK cant be done for patients having irregular and thin corneas. For those with thin or abnormal corneas Keratoconus and dry eye, phakic IOL is an excellent alternative to laser eye surgery. A Phakic IOL is an innovative emerging technology with an optical design intended to correct widest range of myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism (Cylinder power). ICL procedures are being used on highly nearsighted and farsighted patients who may not be candidates for the more common laser procedures such as LASI, LASEK and PRK.
Aurolab has developed zero aberration aspheric phakic foldable intraocular lens to correct low to high myopic refraction error in patients. This new technique is similar to cataract surgery, but the natural lens remains in place. So the eye’s natural focusing ability is preserved.
