Some people who suffer from hay fever and are considering ICL may be worried about whether it is okay to undergo ICL surgery during hay fever season.
For people with hay fever, this time of year can be a time of persistent unpleasant symptoms such as runny nose and itchy eyes, which may make them hesitant to undergo surgery.

Before ICL surgery, antibacterial eye drops will be applied three days before surgery to prevent infection.
After surgery, antibacterial eye drops, steroid eye drops, and non-steroid eye drops will be applied for one month after surgery to prevent infection and suppress inflammation.

Before surgery, you can use allergy eye drops to suppress hay fever symptoms together with the antibacterial eye drops used before surgery, but you will be asked to refrain from using these with other eye drops for one month after surgery.
However, the steroid eye drops used to suppress inflammation during this period are also effective against hay fever, so even if you experience itching and redness due to hay fever, the symptoms can often be suppressed if you use the eye drops after surgery properly.
You can use allergy eye drops to suppress hay fever symptoms one month after surgery.

Regarding taking oral medication for hay fever, there are generally no particular restrictions before and after surgery, so please consult with the doctor during your appointment.

During hay fever season, pollen sticks to contact lenses, making it impossible for some people to wear them, causing inconvenience in their daily lives.
If you undergo ICL surgery, you will be able to go about your daily life without glasses, which may reduce this inconvenience even during hay fever season.

If you are interested in ICL, please come in for a suitability examination.
