INTACS
(An alternative for Laser vision correction)

INTACS is an alternative to correct nearsightedness between 1.0 D to 3.0 D and maximum 1 D in astigmatism.

INTACS is two small transparent ultra thin "half-moons" and is made of the same material as lenses and intracapsular lenses. They flatten the cornea and weaken the corneas ability to refract light. They are installed permanently, but can be removed or changed if the vision changes. There are different thicknesses of these "half-moons" devices depending how big the defect is.

The procedure takes about 15 minutes. The patient receives anaesthesia as eyedropper. A small opening in the cornea is made just under the eyelid. Then tunnels are created in the corneas means. The "half moons" devices are places in those tunnels. The result of these methods is very good.
