Experience the Freedom and Flexibility of EVO Visian ICL™
Life is all about the details, and we want you to enjoy every single one. EVO Visian ICL™ is made for people who want to experience life without the hassle of glasses or contacts.
EVO Visian ICL™, also called an Implantable Collamer® Lens, is a refractive implant to correct common vision issues like myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. Unlike some other vision correction options, the EVO Visian ICL™ is an additive technology that corrects vision without the removal of any corneal tissue. The EVO Visian ICL™ is meant to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contacts. Unlike most permanent refractive solutions, EVO Visian ICL™ is removable.
EVO Visian ICL Procedure – What to Expect
EVO Visian ICL™ is made of biocompatible Collamer material that works in harmony with your eye. The procedure is painless and performed under IV sedation. The pupil is dilated and numbing drops are placed on the eye. Dr. Hamilton will create a small, self-sealing opening in your cornea that will be used to insert and position the EVO Visian ICL™. The procedure typically takes less than 20 – 30 minutes for both eyes. Both eyes can be done on the same day or separately. You will experience improved vision right away and a quick recovery time.
