Intracorneal Rings (ICRs) Manufacturers

Intracorneal rings are implanted into the peripheral cornea to flatten the anterior curvature of the central cornea and correct low degrees of myopia. The rings are made of a polymethylmethacrylate. Intracorneal rings are used to treat low myopia. Intracorneal rings are plastic inserts placed in the cornea. These rings are small device implanted in the eye to correct vision. An advantage of the intracorneal rings is that they are removed and the eye is restored to its preoperative refractive error. Intracorneal rings are thin synthetic arch-shaped segments, which together have an inner diameter of 6.7mm and are implanted into the stromal bed of the cornea. They are implanted at the corneal periphery, which flattens the corneal center.
