barnaclínic+ explores refractive surgery with ICL lenses in the new episode of “Salud (t) Plus”
To mark World Sight Day, “Salud (t) Plus”, the barnaclínic+ podcast that shares real health experiences through the voices of patients and professionals, releases its fourth episode. This time it focuses on refractive surgery with ICL lenses, an alternative to laser surgery for correcting vision.
The episode features Josep Muñoz Irimia. Although refractive surgery is often thought of as a single solution for everyone, every case is different, and Josep’s was a special one: he had keratoconus in his left eye, a corneal condition that ruled out laser surgery. He is joined in the conversation by his father, Antonio Muñoz; Dr. Josep Torras, ophthalmologist specialising in cornea and refractive surgery at visiõnclínic; and Patricia Martín, optometrist specialising in refractive surgery at visiõnclínic.
