EVO ICL is an Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) designed to correct nearsightedness with and without astigmatism. The small flexible lens is placed behind the iris (the colored part of the eye) and in front of the natural crystalline lens in order to improve vision.
It’s like having your doctor implant a lens similar to a contact lens into your eye so you can live without the maintenance of typical contact lenses. This procedure provides clear, sharp vision and can be completed in just 20 to 30 minutes, with a quick recovery time afterward.
The lens is removable by your surgeon, offering flexibility to allow for future procedures as necessary. It provides UV protection and is not visible once in place. Unlike some vision correction procedures, it does not cause dry eye syndrome and provides excellent vision both day and night.
The EVO ICL is well-suited for a wide variety of people. Ideal candidates for the EVO ICL are aged 21 to 45 with nearsightedness, with or without astigmatism, and have maintained a stable prescription for at least one year.
If you are seeking a solution to decrease or eliminate the cost and inconvenience of traditional contacts or glasses, EVO may be your answer.
Your eye doctor will create a small opening in your cornea that will be used to insert and position the EVO ICL. For most patients, the procedure is virtually painless with numbing eye drops and it typically takes less than 20 to 30 minutes.
Patients typically experience improved vision right away and a quick recovery time.
