The quality of one’s vision deteriorates and contact lenses and glasses no longer become satisfactory to help with vision. In the past, corneal transplants have been the only option until now. Intacs corneal implants are another option for individuals who experience an intolerance to contact lenses and who are facing a corneal transplant.
