I had Cataract surgery, amazing, life changing. I have worn glasses for most of my life now glasses free. Friendly, professional and reassuring , can’t thank them enough.

CBCarol Batchelor

I have attended the my-Iclinic for a number of years and always found them to be excellent. When I needed a cataract operation they were the obvious choice. The whole procedure went like clockwork and was completely painless. My eyesight is vastly improved. I would highly recommend the I clinic to anyone as the equipment they use is cutting edge and there is a continuity of care as you always see the same consultant. The staff are very friendly and approachable.

RRRobert Ross

I saw Mr Bolger for cataract surgery with lens implants earlier this year. This is a word-of-mouth clinic, well worth the journey quite far into north London. The whole place feels 100% clinically led by its two consultants. Close attention to detail is in evidence everywhere, from reception right through to follow-up. No one relishes eye procedures, but this was a good experience, with clear and patient communication, plus excellent written information to take away. I was so glad to be there in purpose-built surroundings, under the care of an experienced surgeon and his own team, rather than in a rushed NHS setting, or in the typically more commercial atmosphere of Harley Street.

SASusan A

Look no further! I researched for over a year to find the best laser eye clinic for my complex astigmatic eyes to see if laser surgery would benefit me and this clinic is it! Great service from all the team, especially optician Bharvi and John himself. Lovely comfortable practice, super modern equipment with some incredible machines! The superb surgeon John Bolger has been practicing for decades, is top of his field and lectures all over the world. To top it all off there is tea and coffee on tap! There are chepaer surgeons out there but these are your eyes so you want the best! And its worth it!

MTMatt Tamayo-Myerson

I have had double cataract removal and my vision was adjusted. I cannot praise My-iclinic highly enough. It was a stress free experience from pre-op to surgery then post-op. I felt extremely reassured and was dealt with in a friendly and professional manner with much care and attention. I can see without glasses for the first time in 30 years, and everything is so clear and bright. Many thanks to Bola Odufuwa-Bolger who performed the surgery.

TLTracy London

I had the SMILE procedure in July - it’s now September and my vision is perfect. The procedure was painless and I recovered quickly (I could see clearly after a few hours and completely the day following the procedure). John Bolger was thoughtful, honest and professional. Even though the clinic is quite out of the way for me, I’m glad I made the effort to travel for the level of care.

LULucy

I had cataracts removed in both eyes and was very pleased with how the operation went and the results. I can see! The operation itself was painless and there was only a day or so of mild discomfort afterwards. The initial consultation, operation and follow-up appointment were all efficiently run and consultant Ms Bola Odufuwa-Bolger and team were friendly, helpful and informative, putting me at ease at all times. I would recommend My-iClinic to anyone considering cataract surgery.

JSJon Spence

Can’t recommend enough! Every single member of staff has been incredibly helpful and knowledgeable! Very clean and welcoming too.

CDChar Dodd

Great surgery, excellent team, deep knowledge of eye business - no wonder Dr.Bolger was chosen by Her Majesty Queen Elisabeth. He literally gave me ability to read again glasses free, although other clinics couldn’t do it

ЛВЛондонГрад Влад

Some years ago I chose My-iClinic to have a double Cataract operation which has changed my life considerably. I now have almost perfect vision without needing glasses or lenses. From the initial consultation right through to post-op, I couldn't have been cared for any better. Mr Bulger has created an excellent team. Recently, I revisited the clinic for my annual examination which revealed that one of my eyes had become a little lazy. I met with the very thorough Fatima, the resident Optometrist & Orthoptist who quite simply put my eyes in the gym with a series of exercises to be completed at home I am happy to report that after 3 weeks I am beginning to notice improvement. Without hesitation, I would unreservedly recommend My-iClinic.

DGDavid George

It has been a few months since I had Presbyond eye surgery at My-iClinic, and it's been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I no longer need glasses and can see the world with my own eyes, which has given me an incredible sense of freedom—something I didn't fully appreciate until after the surgery. Mr. Bolger, the surgeon, clearly and calmly explained every aspect of the process, from the results of the various tests to what would happen on the day of the operation. This put my mind at ease and made me feel confident in my decision. The operation went very smoothly thanks to Mr. Bolger's expertise. I'm glad I was operated on by one of the top eye surgeons in the country. The staff were also professional and kind throughout my visits. This summer, I took my daughter to a planetarium, and it was just incredible to experience it without glasses. I highly recommend My-iClinic to anyone considering laser eye surgery.

Implantable contact lenses Frequently asked questions

Have a question? We are here to help.

I'm looking for...

What does ‘ICL’ stand for?

ICL stands for ‘Implantable Collamer Lenses’ which some refer to as ‘Implantable contact lenses.’ No matter the term, ICL is a permanent lens implanted into the eye to correct your vision, be that short or long sighted, and astigmatism. If you have a prescription for glasses or everyday contact lenses, ICL is could be an excellent vision correction procedure for you! ICL is the best alternative to laser eye surgery, even for those with a higher than average prescription, dry eyes or thin corneas, and offers crisp, clear vision during the day and at night, permanently, without needing your glasses or everyday contact lenses.

How do Implantable Contact Lenses work?

Implantable Collamer lenses are the most advanced contact lens procedure to have your vision without needing to wear glasses or disposable contact lenses again. Discuss your options and eligibility for implantable contact lens surgery with one of our ICL specialists here. We will give you clear advice on your suitability and the best vision correction options for your lifestyle.

What is the difference between Implantable Contact Lenses and the contact lenses I put in everyday?

There are three major differences between Implantable Collamer Lenses and the contact lenses you currently wear everyday:

Implantable Collamer lenses are gently fixed in your eye for a long period of time. There is no need to wear glasses or to use plastic lenses in your eyes which risks infections.
Implantable Collamer Lenses stop any dry eye symptoms which you may be experiencing with your everyday disposable contact lenses.
Implantable Collamer Lenses are not only the best for your eyes health, but a far better financial investment than spending money on lenses which only last a day.

What are Implantable Contact Lenses made of?

The Implantable Contact Lenses we use are EVO Visian. EVO Visian is a soft, flexible lens that is gently inserted and positioned in your eye behind the iris (coloured part of the eye) and in front of your natural lens, making it undetectable to any observers. The procedure is completely painless. Unlike other procedures, the EVO Visian implantable contact lens procedure does not touch the corneal tissue in the eye. This lens is in complete harmony with your natural eyes to provide exceptional quality of vision, allowing you to see the world around you in crystal clear clarity.

How will I know if Implantable Contact Lenses will be best for me?

Adults 21 – 60 years of age with short-sighted and long sighted prescriptions (near and far). If you have a prescription between -0.5D to -20.0D Or A prescription +16D and up to 6.0D of astigmatism you are suitable for Implantable Contact Lenses unlike laser eye surgery, if you have:

Thin or irregular corneas (Keratoconus)
Dry eye
High astigmatism
High myopia
High hyperopia

I have keratoconus, am I suitable for Implantable Contact Lenses?

Yes! Many people who have keratoconus (a thin cornea) will not be suitable for laser eye surgery but are suitable for Implantable Contact Lenses. In fact, the best alternative to laser eye surgery is to have Implantable Contact Lenses rather than continuing to purchase disposable contact lenses which can damage the health of your eye. Many patients don’t meet the requirements for laser refractive procedures because their prescription is too high, or they have thin corneas. However our Implantable Contact Lenses provide a safe and effective treatment for clear, natural vision.

What if my prescription changes and I already have my contact lenses implanted?

If you find your prescription is changing over the time you have ICL, we are able to change the ICL lenses so you can resume your normal activities by seeing clearly again. The ICL procedure is 100% reversible and if you do find your sight is changing, we can replace your old prescription with your new prescription. You can still continue with long-term sight without worrying about glasses or contact lenses.

How long do Implantable Contact Lenses last?

ICL are designed to be permanent as it is the best vision correction alternative to laser eye surgery! The lenses are designed very differently to hard plastic lenses you would usually purchase for everyday use which is why they last forever.

Are Implantable Contact Lenses Permanent?

ICL is a permanent solution to fix your sight and have clear vision for the long term without the need for purchasing disposable contact lenses or glasses. However, the ICL procedure is not permanent as it can always be reversed if your prescription changes in the future. Think of ICL as permanent contact lenses everyday where you don’t need to.

How much does ICL cost?

Our ICL procedure costs £3000 per eye. We offer a 0% interest- free finance option for 24 months which only requires a deposit of 25%, while the remaining balance can be paid back interest-free! See if you are eligible for our finance options here.

Is there a chance I will not be suitable for ICL surgery?

Everybody is most likely suitable for ICL treatment! However, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under that age of 21, unfortunately you would not be considered for the treatment at this time. We understand you may be looking for the best treatment to correct your vision already which is why we will still be able to book your private consultation with our specialist in advance. If you are over the age of 45, we would not use ICL as a suitable treatment to correct your vision. Instead, we would propose Presbyond as the best treatment for you.

Can I swim, play sports and drive after my ICL surgery?

Yes! The main benefit of having ICL surgery is to be free from any visual limitations in your busy lifestyle! After the surgery, we advise two weeks without swimming or participating in any strenuous activity but after these two weeks you may resume all activities as normal with the crystal clarity of the world around you!

When can I wear eye makeup after ICL?

We advise you to not wear any eye shadow, mascara or eyeliner for at least two weeks after your ICL surgery. This is because your eye is still healing from the implantation and any makeup that falls off into your eyes will affect the recovery process and could result in injury. But once the two week recovery period has finished you can wear makeup everyday and apply at any time without having to worry about inserting your everyday contact lenses ever again!

What is the success rate of ICL surgery?

ICL surgery is an incredibly safe and effective treatment with one of the highest success rates for vision correction procedures. The success rate for our ICL is 98 percent and the remaining 2% of surgeries that were reversed was completed again with different measurements for the lenses. Because the ICL lens is a biocompatible and stable material, it has been used for many years in ICL surgery and is completely safe.

Can ICL also fix my dry eye syndrome and astigmatism?

Yes! Implantable Contact Lenses can reverse the effects of dry eyes which many people experience when using everyday contact lenses. If you have astigmatism or are Myopic (experiencing near-sightedness), ICL will permanently correct this for you.

What are the potential risks with ICL surgery?

Like any treatment there are potential risks to consider. In the very rare occasion we may have to treat a patient twice to reposition or replace the lens implant. Sometimes if the ICL lens is not positioned or sized correctly it may cause inflammation and irritation but we ensure to remove the lens before this becomes any long-term issue.
