INTACS Moving

Postby Vicky Houston » Tue 13 Mar 2012 1:07 pm

I have had INTACS in my right eye since 2005. Lately this seems to move and get stuck so my eye is out of focus, this is mainly when gentley washing my face i have to move the INTAC back into place very carefully before i am able to see out of my eye again. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it possible the INTAC could dislodge completely or even fall out?

Sounds like you really need to get this checked out at the hospital, Vicky. You're probably one of the first here to have had Intacs fitted so there may not be many people who've had them as long as you have. Maybe the 'channel' into which they are fitted becomes wider over time? One for the experts!
All the best
