QUOTE(taiyinjun @ Nov 14 2015, 11:15 AM) I did ICL about 4 years plus ago with vista. I have the same prob as thin cornea and high astigmatism so cannot go for lasik. No prob after 4 years and vision still great Hi mind sharing the experience from how u came to deciding to do ICL until the current u after surgery? I visited a eye specialist and was advised to do ICL as well. Would like to hear more stories before deciding.

The overall procedure tool about 10 mins for one eye and there is no pain at all. The recovery of vision is also fast, as I am able to see clearly after just a couple of hours. I am not sure about laser but for ICL the contrast in seeing thing is much sharper and it improve my night vision. I have very high astigmatism so driving at night used to give me problem. The only side effect I observe so far is occasional dryness in the eye when I stared at pc for too long. The rest is OK. Done steamboat, bbq, swim and anything with the ICL and no issue at all thanks for the input. I guess the only problem is the price for the procedure.
