Nearsightedness
Why the EVO ICL for nearsightedness?
For some individuals with nearsightedness, LASIK, SMILE, and PRK may require significant reshaping of the cornea, leaving an unsafe amount of corneal tissue, which may result in corneal ectasia. The EVO ICL prevents this by preserving corneal tissue. It is predictable, safe, and provides high quality vision in a wide range of patients with nearsightedness and astigmatism.
Astigmatism
Toric EVO ICL for astigmatism
Patients with astigmatism can benefit from the Toric EVO ICL, which corrects myopia and cylinder. Precise lens calculations and positioning ensure optimal results.
Questions
FAQ
Is the EVO ICL visible?
No. The lens is positioned behind the iris, where it is not visible to others or felt by you.
Can the lens be removed?
Yes. If your vision changes or you prefer alternative correction, the lens can be safely removed.
Will the lens interfere with my natural lens?
No. There is a designed gap between the ICL and the natural lens to maintain normal eye function and lens nutrition.
What is the cost?
EVO ICL pricing varies by prescription complexity. Contact us for a customized quote and financing options.
How long does the lens last?
