If you can't see beyond your nose and don't qualify or aren't ready for laser vision surgery, you may want to set your sights on a new implantable lens.
Some patients who are extremely nearsighted are trying a new implantable lens called the Visian ICL.
With built-in UV protection it's also made of a flexible material that resists infection.
Doctors can roll it up and insert it through a small incision.
Once it unravels they tuck the lens behind the iris in front of the eye's natural lens.
