LASIK’s been discussed, but has anyone had lens implants?

I was all set to get LASIK surgery next week, but when I went in for the pre-op testing, the doctor noticed that I may be at higher risk of developing Keratoconus down the line, and suggested a lower risk option, Visian ICL implantable lenses. Has anyone had these done? The other issue is that it’s a much more expensive option, and my cost-benefit analysis that showed LASIK paid off over time by not having to purchase my increasingly expensive contacts/glasses doesn’t apply to this other surgery. Wondering if it’s worth the cost?
