Phakic intraocular lenses (phakic IOLs)
-sometimes called implantable contact lenses -implanted into the eye without removing the eye's natural lens -used for patients with high degrees of myopia or hyperopia -Unlike refractive IOLs, the phakic IOL is placed in front of the eye's natural lens. Leaving the natural lens in the eye preserves the eye's ability to focus for reading vision.
