[###] hoosierjenny, what color are your eyes? I've wondered if eye color
plays a role in diameter of the pupil. My eyes are really light blue/green,
and the right eye, which has worse halos, has a slightly larger pupil than
the left. It's always been that way.
Not only do I see halos, but I can also see the little tabs on either side
of the center circle.
Hello everyone, Just joined the group, so I've got some catching up to do on the messages already posted, but thought I would say a quick 'hi' and introduce...
Man, this is really putting a burr in my saddle about this technology. I get that there are risks, and I'm willing to cross my fingers on the whole retinal...
No there is no halo producing phenomena. I decided not to get the ICL and I think everyone needs to do their own due diligence when it comes to this. For...
There is research in other ICLs, in particular a Verisyse/Artisan type that is flexible like the Visian, and a toric version of both. ICLs have been available...
O also in response to Jenny, yes the measuring of your pupil is just looking in a machine in a completely dark room. Make sure your dr. does this!!!! The first...

Well said. I'm not troubled by halos, and I think this surgery was the best thing I've ever done. But halos are a serious problem for some people. If this...
Yeah, well despite loving the IOLs I totally agree. Which makes me incredibly worried for the endo cell loss. I mean, if they've already folded up their tent...
This is not a problem, Jean. A good ICL patient sees an ophthamologist every year, and they track the endo cell density (can O.D.'s do this?). If it red-lines,...
I notice them, but for some, if you can't drive, it goes beyond noticing. It affects quality of life. I'm perhaps odd in that I had terrible halos with hard...
... One of our members did have the Visian surgery revered, and Verisyse installed instead. I am not troubled by the halos, and I used to not believe they were...
... they ... Michael, this is exactly what some of us see every night. I even see halos walking down the hallway at work. I've gotten much more used to them,...
If (some cases of) the halos are a serious impediment to driving at night, then maybe the ICL doctors (and your state's department of motor vehicles) should be...
I agree with you Ami. I'm incredibly happy. And when the doctor tells me I'll need to see a retinal specialist every year bc I"m severely myopic, whether or...
My hypotheses (about drawbacks to making the ICL lens optic larger) are: 1) might require a bigger diameter of injector tube (the 'straw' that they use to...
I asked about halos before having the surgery, and I was told that they might persist even after the surgery. I just didn't think they'd be worse afterwards....
... Well put. I knew that having ICL surgery would not make me just like someone who's had 20/20 vision their entire life. I told myself before going ahead ...
