his lens is made from a material called Collamer, a collagen co-polymer that contains a small amount of purified collagen. It is small, foldable, soft, flexible and moist. Since it is stable and biocompatible therefore it does not cause any tissue damages. To remove the lens, it is similar to how to implant it at the beginning. Due to advanced age, cataract development is the most common reason to remove the lens. If cataract surgery is needed, the lens must be also removed. Other possible reason, although it is rare, is an increased intraocular pressure in the eyes. Intraocular pressure might temporarily increases after surgery. After medicines that lower pressure in the eyes are taken, if elevated intraocular pressure does not relieve after ICL surgery, the lens might need to be removed
