ICR, or Intracorneal Ring, treatment is a surgical procedure used to correct certain vision problems, particularly keratoconus. Keratoconus is a condition where the cornea, the clear front part of the eye, progressively thins and bulges outward, leading to distorted vision.
During ICR treatment, small crescent-shaped plastic rings, also known as intracorneal rings, are implanted into the cornea. These rings help to flatten the cornea, reducing the irregular shape caused by keratoconus.
Recovery after ICR treatment is generally quicker than some other corneal surgeries. Patients may experience improved vision within a few days to weeks.
