EVO Visian ICL
Experience Visual Freedom
EVO Visian ICL, also called an Implantable Collamer® Lens, is a refractive implant to correct common vision issues like myopia (nearsightedness) with or without 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 and contacts and differs from other refractive solutions in that EVO Visian ICL is removable by your doctor.
EVO Visian ICL is one option for patients looking for an alternative to LASIK. Other options we offer include PRK and natural lens replacement. Learn more about these procedures now!
