Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery is a viable solution for individuals seeking to correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism. This procedure has gained worldwide acceptance due to its reversible nature and the potential for excellent visual outcomes. Thailand is renowned for its advanced healthcare infrastructure and experienced ophthalmologists, making it an attractive destination for ICL surgery.

ICL surgery involves inserting a small, biocompatible lens into the eye to correct refractive errors, providing an alternative to LASIK and PRK for those who are not suitable candidates. The Collamer lens, placed either behind the iris and in front of the natural lens, enhances the eye's focusing abilities. The procedure is reversible and the ICL can be replaced if the patient's vision changes significantly over time.
Prior to ICL surgery, patients will undergo a comprehensive eye exam to assess overall eye health, corneal thickness, and eye dimensions. This is necessary to choose the right size and power for the implantable lens. Patients may be advised to cease wearing contact lenses for a period before this assessment and the surgery itself, to ensure accurate measurements.
ICL surgery is a brief outpatient procedure that typically takes around 20 to 30 minutes per eye. After administering topical anesthesia, the surgeon makes a small incision in the cornea to insert the lens, which is then positioned behind the iris and in front of the natural lens. The incision is self-sealing and usually requires no stitches.
After the procedure, patients may experience some discomfort, blurred vision, and sensitivity to light, but these symptoms should resolve within a few days. The majority of patients notice an improvement in their vision almost immediately. Regular postoperative check-ups are necessary to monitor the eye's response to the ICL.
ICL surgery costs in Thailand can range from $2,500 to $3,500 per eye, depending on the specifics of the procedure and the surgeon's experience. Please note that these costs do not include additional expenses for travel and accommodation.

ICL surgery in Thailand typically costs between $2,500 and $3,500 per eye.
Most patients report an immediate improvement in their vision, but full visual recovery can vary. Patients should plan for a few days to a week for recovery.
Most patients are generally safe to fly within a few days following ICL surgery, but it's best to consult with your surgeon for personalized advice.
Typically, a stay of around 7-10 days in Thailand is recommended. This allows time for an initial consultation, surgery, and post-operative follow-ups before travelling back home.
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
I made the decision to undergo cosmetic surgery in Bangkok, Thailand due to the high prices in Australia, Unsure about choosing the right hospital and doctors in Thailand, my friend suggested Konkai Medical Tourism Agency, they guided me through everything and their professional team, with strong medical connections in Thailand, made the process smooth.The surgery went well, and I’m very happy with the results.I highly recommend Konkai to anyone considering to come to Thailand for medical treatment 👍
"Konkai helped me with what was becoming a confusing process. After contacting Konkai they quickly found a doctor that specialized in the procedure I requested and helped set up an appointment during my trip to Thailand. I will definitely contact them again if the need arises."
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"Thanks for your help things went very smoothly. Your help is essential for easing my anxiety before my trip. Excellent job."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
"The customer care at Konkai Health has been great. I was looking at treatment options for my back. They got back to me fast and gave me options to connect with some top doctors and surgeons in Thailand. The doctors assessed my condition, did a video call, and gave me recommendations to fix it. Thank you. I recommend them for anyone interested in medical tourism to Thailand."
"I will say you made it so easy to get everything scheduled. I expected it to take much longer trying to find doctors waiting on responses etc. I was happy with the doctor just going ahead and getting it done on the same day as the first procedure. Everything went well and all the nurses were great. Thanks!"
"Konkai Health's service has truly been outstanding. From providing directions to the hospital, hotel recommendations in there, or simply checking up on how everything has gone. I fully recommend them to anyone wanting to see a doctor in Thailand."
I would like to share my very good experience with konkai.health as I was searching for a clinic for my cataract surgery. Khun Pam Van Wissen organised me in no time all appointments at Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok which has distinguished itself through excellent service. I would like to say thank you to all staff, nurses and especially to Dr. Keerati Pungpapong who all did an absolutely excellent job and I felt from the first moment in best hands. Thank you again Khun Pam from Konkai Health for a great job.
I am very happy with the results. I cannot thank the people at Asia Cosmetic Hospital enough for their help and service while I was in the hospital and my stay at the hotel. I feel fine with very little if any pain and I am bringing my strength back up to before surgery. I know it will take many months for everything to heal but right now I feel strong both physical and mentally.
Thank you Konkai for all the work on your part to bring this all together for me. You don’t know what this means to me.
"Everything went really well the staff were kind and helpful my experience there was very good experience"
" I returned home safe and sound, Thank you for all your help :)"
