Intacs implants

Intacs implants are small, plastic inserts placed in the cornea of the eye to treat mild to moderate keratoconus, a condition where the cornea becomes thin and cone-shaped, distorting vision. These implants help reshape the cornea, improving visual acuity and reducing the need for glasses or contact lenses. The procedure is minimally invasive, usually performed on an outpatient basis, and offers a potential alternative to corneal transplants. Intacs can be removed if necessary, and their effectiveness can vary depending on individual circumstances. As with any medical treatment, discussing potential risks and benefits with a healthcare provider is essential.
