Is it safe to remove ICL lens with dry eyes and headaches?

Question

Hi all, I have dry eyes and headaches after ICL Surgery. I had ICL surgery 3 years back and I don't have any problem till last year when migraine headaches started. Those headaches will come and goes but my eyes pain will stays ever I could not able to do any daily activities(like watching TV, phone and reading paper). I have contacted more than 20 ophthalmology doctors approximately everyone is saying my eyes are perfectly fine even ICL lens are in good condition.

I am sorry that you are experiencing migraines. That must be awful. My concern for you is that removing the ICL may not fix the issue. And, unfortunately, I'm going to answer your question with a question. Have you seen a doctor who specializes in headaches? Or, a neuro ophthalmologist? I'm thinking you probably have. I would potentially try to come at the problem from an angle that is different that ophthalmology- or removing the ICL.
