What is Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL)?
The Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL), also searched for as an implantable contact lens, is a biocompatible lens placed inside the eye behind the iris, without removing corneal tissue. It is often considered for higher myopia, thinner corneas or eyes unsuitable for corneal laser procedures, subject to anterior chamber depth and endothelial cell assessment.

“I was skeptical about ICL surgery as it's pretty new and I was not sure if I should try it. However, Dr. Virendra has done a tremendous job. I had a very high myopia and now I'm free from glasses. The process took literally 10 mins and I could see just after the process and within a week, everything recovered, giving my an awesome vision. My uncle had laser surgery almost 15 years back and he still thank Dr. Virendra for that. No problem faced so far. Freedom from fear, freedom from spectacles. Thanks a ton for giving me freedom from my glasses. PS: Their insurance desk is also very smooth. Helped me with no hassle at all. My before and after pics are attached.”
“I underwent ICL eye surgery in January last year with Dr. Virendra Agarwal, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He is truly one of the best doctors in Jaipur, combining expertise with a patient-centric approach. From the initial consultation to post-surgery care, he ensured that I was well-informed and comfortable throughout the process. The surgery was smooth, and my vision has improved beyond expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Virendra Agarwal for anyone considering vision correction—his precision, professionalism, and compassionate care make all the difference!”
