Should you feel scared about implantable contact lens surgery?Dr. Matthew Russell explains why you shouldn’t be scared of implantable contact lens (ICL) surgery.Most people who are considering having ICL surgery are scared and concerned about the possibility of having surgery on their eyes. They may even feel more scared than people who are going to go through LASIK eye surgery.ICL surgery is a very easy refractive surgery to have. The reason for that is, during the surgery, you are sedated. We provide twilight sedation, which means that you would be breathing for yourself, but you wouldn’t be conscious of anything happening.
