The Visian ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens), created by STAAR® Surgical Company, is a phakic intraocular lens (IOL) for the treatment of myopia and other refractive errors.
The unique Collamer composition of the Visian ICL greatly reduces the occurrence of glare and halos and provides a high quality of vision.
The Visian TICL™*, a toric model of the lens, treats myopia with astigmatism. Currently available in international markets, the Visian TICL* is currently under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Because of the wide treatment range of the Visian ICL and the Visian TICL*, patients with mild, moderate, or severe myopia may benefit from the STAAR Surgical Company's phakic IOLs.

Introducing STAAR Surgical's new single-piece aspheric NTIOL, nanoFLEX™. From the inside; made of a unique, highly advanced biocompatible Collamer® material. On the outside; designed with a proprietary aspheric optic to optimize visual performance.
Collamer is a unique lens material created and used exclusively by STAAR Surgical Company in the Afinity™ IOL, nanoFLEX™ IOL and the Visian ICL.
Composed of collagen and a poly-HEMA based copolymer, Collamer lenses are biologically compatible with the eye and provide exceptional quality of vision correction.
Collamer lenses are a smart choice for any patient interested in vision free from glare and halos. However, the lens material is especially ideal for patients with specific health conditions that have precluded their use of other lenses.
Cataracts are the clouding of the eye's natural lens, which inhibits light from easily passing through the lens. The clouded lens can be removed and replaced with an intraocular lens (IOL). STAAR Surgical Company offers various models of silicone and Collamer IOLs. The company also offers toric IOLs to treat astigmatism during cataract surgery.

Glaucoma is a serious eye disease that can lead to blindness. Currently there is no cure for glaucoma, but there are treatments available that can slow or prevent further vision loss including STAAR Surgical Company's AquaFlow™ collagen glaucoma drainage device, a piece of eye surgery equipment for the treatment of glaucoma.
Learn more about glaucoma and treatment with AquaFlow.
AquaFlow Collagen Glaucoma Drainage Device is used in conjunction with a non-penetrating deep sclerectomy procedure and has been shown to significantly reduce intraocular pressure. The glaucoma implant also minimizes the complications often associated with penetrating procedures and tends to lower the need for medications after surgery.
