Implantable Collamer Lens

Freedom from Glasses and Contact Lenses

Implantable Collamer Lens

The Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) can be an option for patients with very high prescriptions and therefore unsuitable for laser surgery.

The ICL procedure can precisely correct shortsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. There have been more than 1 million procedures performed worldwide and it has a 20 year track record.

The Implantable Collamer lens (ICL) is an intraocular lens, similar to a contact lens which is placed in the eye. It sits in front of the natural lens of the eye and does not replace it.

Are You A Candidate?
The ICL is custom designed for each individual’s eye. The ICL is made of a unique bio-material called Collamer which is inert within the eye. ICL’s are intended to remain in place, however if it needs to be removed for any reason can be done so easily.

Our highly skilled surgeons can advise you on the treatment most suitable for you.

  • Ms. McCreery carried out laser eye surgery on me about two months ago after 15 years of being totally dependent on glasses, it's hard to imagine I ever wore glasses now! Would 1000% recommend anyone who is considering laser to see Dr McCreery - every step of the process was so easy and I felt very well looked after by her and the entire team at Blackrock Eye Care. Couldn't be happier with my treatment and the results!

  • After many years weighing up the merits of getting laser eye surgery; I decided to have a consultation with Ms. Kathryn McCreery to establish suitability. The initial assessment was straightforward and the options and considerations were clearly explained to me. The surgery itself (PRK) was incredibly quick and painless. The results were even better than I could have hoped for and I now enjoy a quality of vision that is superior to that which my glasses used to provide. Although there are plenty of practitioners in this field; I went with Blackrock Eye Care as it is medical professional led rather than marketing led. The depth of experience, quality of aftercare and service level are what mattered to me. I highly recommend.

  • Lasik gave me such great results, I don’t know why I waited. I would recommend Blackrock Eye Care & Ms McCreery to anyone who is eligible for the surgery

    Patrick Molloy

  • I recently had a Lasek procedure with Ms. Kathryn McCreery in December 2016 and the whole experience was very positive . I had a speedy appointment booked at short notice, I went in had my procedure which took no longer than 5 minutes per eye and it all felt as easy as if going for a dental check up. Instantly after the procedure I could see much clearer. A week passed and I had clearer vision than through my contact lenses, i just thought how simple the procedure was and how much relief and benefit it gave. I now have better than 20/20 vision and Keep thinking why didn't I do this before. I also however don't believe it would have been as successful and such a seamless process had I not been looked after by Ms. Kathryn McCreery and her staff who are heavily experienced in this field and would highly recommend her and Blackrock Clinic if you want a more improved quality of life.

  • I would highly recommend Ms. Kathryn McCreery & her team. They explained everything that I needed to know to make me feel comfortable prior & post laser surgery. My care on the day was fantastic as was the follow up care I have received the days and months after. My advice would be stop thinking about it & do it, you won't regret it, the best decision I have ever made, life changing
