TD Eye celebrates Vietnamese Women’s Day

TD Eye celebrates Vietnamese Women’s Day 20/10 – Honoring the beauty of Vietnamese eyes
October 20th is a special occasion to honor Vietnamese women — those who embody strength, grace, and intelligence. Every woman has her own story, her own way of loving and caring for herself. Among all, the eyes — the “windows to the soul” — are where vitality, confidence, and inner beauty are reflected.
In today’s fast-paced world, where work, technology, and pressure cause constant eye strain, maintaining good vision has become a smart choice for women who wish to preserve their youth and confidence.
The eyes – the origin of beauty and confidence
Modern life means hours in front of screens, constant exposure to smartphones, and urban pollution — all of which can lead to dry, tired eyes and reduced vision. Many young women face severe myopia or astigmatism, and even thin corneas, making them unsuitable for procedures like LASIK or SMILE.
However, advancements in ophthalmology have introduced a new solution – Phakic ICL (Phakic ICL) surgery – helping millions worldwide regain clear, sharp vision without cutting the cornea.
The modern Phakic ICL vision correction solution

Eye health plays a major role in overall wellness
According to STAAR Surgical (USA – Switzerland), a company certified under ISO 13485:2016 for the design and manufacture of implantable lenses, Phakic ICL is a Collamer® biocompatible lens implanted gently inside the eye, positioned behind the iris and in front of the natural crystalline lens.
Unlike LASIK or PRK — which reshape the cornea — Phakic ICL preserves the natural structure of the eye, making it suitable for people with thin corneas, dry eyes, or high myopia (from –3.0D to –20.0D, with astigmatism between 1.0D–4.0D).
Who is a good candidate for Phakic ICL surgery?
Not everyone can undergo LASIK or SMILE, especially those with thin corneas, dry eyes, or high myopia. With Phakic ICL, the indications are broader and safer — ideal if you want to achieve clear vision while keeping your eye’s natural structure intact.
Below are the ideal candidates for this advanced method:
- Women aged 21 to 45 — the perfect age range when eye structures are stable and free from early lens aging. Stable vision ensures optimal and lasting surgical results.
- Women with myopia from –3.0D to –20.0D. Phakic ICL can correct both mild and very high levels of nearsightedness.
- Women with astigmatism from 1.0D to 4.0D. The EVO Toric ICL version is specifically designed to correct astigmatism, providing clear vision for both near and far distances.
- Women with thin corneas or dry eyes. This group cannot undergo LASIK due to high risk of corneal complications. Phakic ICL doesn’t alter the cornea or cause dryness, making it ideal for office workers, computer users, and long-time contact lens wearers.
- Women with an anterior chamber depth ≥ 3.0 mm. This ensures enough space to safely position the Collamer® lens between the iris and the natural crystalline lens without touching other structures.
- Women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding. Since hormones can affect vision stability, the safest time for surgery is at least three months after stopping breastfeeding.
6 outstanding advantages of Phakic ICL

Phakic ICL: no corneal cutting, no dryness, no regression
| Advantage | Key Benefit |
|---|---|
| No dry eye | Non-corneal procedure, perfect for office workers and frequent computer users. |
| Sharp, clear vision – even at night | 99.4% of patients said they would “do it again” if given the chance. |
| Quick recovery | Most patients return to normal daily activities within 1–2 days. |
| Removable if needed | The lens can be removed or replaced by a doctor when technology advances. |
| Natural UV protection | Protects the eyes from harmful UV rays that may cause early cataracts. |
| No need for iridotomy | The KS-AquaPort design reduces the risk of increased intraocular pressure and post-op complications. |
Phakic ICL is more than just an advanced vision correction procedure — it’s a perfect balance of science and natural aesthetics. Within 20–30 minutes, patients cannot see or feel the lens — only the clarity of a refreshed, natural vision remains.
- STAAR Surgical AG – Manufacturer of Collamer® lenses certified under ISO 13485:2016.
- American Journal of Ophthalmology (2021) – EVO+ ICL improves both visual quality and night vision.
- Clinical Ophthalmology (2022) – FDA-approved Phakic ICL for its safety and fast recovery.
With over 3 million lenses distributed globally, Phakic ICL is considered the “gold standard” for those seeking clear vision while preserving the natural corneal structure.
In Vietnam, more and more modern women are choosing Phakic ICL — not just to “see better,” but to feel more confident in their daily lives, careers, and personal journeys.
October 20th – See clearer to love more deeply
If the eyes are the “language of the soul,” then clear vision is how we see the world with greater love. Phakic ICL surgery not only restores vision but also empowers Vietnamese women to take charge of their well-being — a meaningful gift to themselves on this Women’s Day.
To all Vietnamese women:
Let your bright, clear eyes reflect confidence, intelligence, and timeless beauty — today and always.
