Shinsegae ICL

Designed around the eye's astigmatism axis

Vision correction with V Toric ICL

High myopia and astigmatism corrected together
with one specialised lens — V Toric ICL

A cornea-preserving approach
tailored to each eye for precise correction.

V Toric ICL lens

Standard Toric ICL vs V Toric ICL

Even with the same astigmatism implant, the direction the lens is inserted can change stability and visual quality.

Standard Toric ICL
Horizontal
A large lens pressed in to prevent rotation
Micro-rotation possible from eye movement
Axis shift and reduced vision if the lens rotates
Criteria
Insertion direction
Fixation
Rotation risk
Astigmatism correction
V Toric ICL (vertical)
Vertical
Stably fixed to the eye's vertical structure
Vertical placement reduces rotation risk
Stable axis for reliable long-term correction

Limitations of conventional toric ICL

  1. Limitations of
    conventional toric ICL

    Lens stability can vary
    with the eye's structure.

  2. Axis may shift from
    lens rotation

    If the lens rotates, the
    astigmatism axis can change.

  3. Reduced correction
    effect

    An axis change can lower
    the correction effect.

Possible side effects when the lens is too large

Risk of elevated eye pressure

Risk of elevated eye pressure

If there isn't enough space between the lens and eye,
eye pressure can be affected.

Risk of corneal endothelial cell loss

Risk of corneal endothelial cell loss

If the gap between cornea and lens is insufficient,
corneal endothelial cells can be affected.

Eye pain and headache

Eye pain and headache

Pressure changes or the lens-adaptation process
may cause discomfort.

Why V (Vertical) Toric?

Asian eyes are often taller than they are wide.
V Toric ICL inserts the lens vertically to suit this eye structure.

01

A more stable position for the eye's structure

Accounts for the eye's anatomy to help keep the lens stably fixed.
02

Reduced lens-rotation risk

Vertical insertion lowers rotation risk and the chance of axis shift.
03

Improved astigmatism-correction stability

Keeps the astigmatism axis steady for longer-lasting correction.
04

Less eye burden and fewer side effects

Avoids unnecessarily large lenses to minimise burden on the eye.

Why rotation matters for toric lenses

A toric lens must be aligned to the exact astigmatism axis
to deliver its correction.
Standard lenses are barely affected by rotation,
but a toric lens loses effect even with a small axis shift.
The difference 1° makes
A toric lens can lose about 3% of its correction per 1° of rotation.

That's why lens fixation and stability are crucial in toric ICL surgery.

V Toric ICL is a customised toric lens implant
that precisely reflects four key factors.

A customised V Toric ICL solution that comprehensively considers four factors — lens size, astigmatism power, astigmatism axis, and insertion direction.

Lens size

Precisely analyses your eye structure
to choose the right lens size for your eye.

Astigmatism power

Measures each person's astigmatism through precise testing
for customised astigmatism correction.

Astigmatism axis

Accurately analyses the astigmatism axis
for stable vision-correction results.

Insertion direction

Inserts the lens vertically
to help keep the lens stable and the axis aligned.
