The First Keratopigmentation in Slovakia: A Revolutionary Step in Ophthalmology
The iClinic Eye Clinic has achieved a historic milestone in Slovak ophthalmology. As the first in Slovakia, we have performed a study-based keratopigmentation, an innovative surgical procedure that could, in the future, help patients with iris and corneal disorders. In this article, you will learn more about this groundbreaking method, its current state, and its future potential.

The iClinic Eye Clinic has long been building a reputation as a pioneer in laser and refractive surgery. This time, we have reached a significant milestone—the first study-based keratopigmentation in Slovakia. This innovative surgical procedure has so far been performed only in experimental conditions and has not yet been conducted on a patient.
Keratopigmentation is an ophthalmological procedure that involves applying pigment to the cornea of the eye. This technique can be used for the aesthetic correction of iris defects, helping patients with medical complications or congenital eye color disorders. Furthermore, it is anticipated that in the future, this method could also contribute to improving vision in specific cases.
Although keratopigmentation is still in the experimental phase, iClinic has made significant efforts to optimize it. The development and refinement of micro-instruments have played a crucial role in enhancing the precision and safety of the procedure. The first tests have shown promising results, and there is great hope that this technique will become a widely available method in ophthalmology.
The potential of keratopigmentation is vast. In the coming years, it is expected to develop further and find broader applications, not only for aesthetic purposes but also as a solution for patients with serious eye disorders. iClinic will continue to monitor the progress of this technology and regularly inform both the professional and general public about updates and advancements.
Our clinic continuously strives to bring revolutionary methods into practice and significantly contribute to the development of ophthalmology in Slovakia. The first study-based keratopigmentation is just the beginning of a new era in the treatment of eye diseases, and we look forward to its further development.
