Do you struggle with blurry distance vision or rely heavily on thick glasses or contact lenses? EVO ICL is an advanced vision correction solution for patients with high prescriptions. This surgical procedure offers an effective option without removing corneal tissue. Clearview Eye and Laser Medical Center in San Diego specializes in EVO ICL to help you reduce or eliminate dependence on eyewear.
EVO ICL surgery is a vision correction procedure that involves implanting a small, biocompatible lens, known as the EVO Visian Implantable Collamer Lens, between the iris and the natural lens of the eye. Unlike LASIK, it does not reshape the cornea or remove any tissue. This minimally invasive procedure corrects nearsightedness and astigmatism by improving the eye’s ability to focus light properly on the retina. Because the lens works with your natural lens, the procedure is reversible and preserves the integrity of the eye.
Choosing the EVO ICL procedure offers several significant benefits:
The EVO implantable collamer lens is designed to deliver permanent results while offering the flexibility of removal if desired.
The EVO ICL surgery process involves:
1. Preoperative assessment – Eye measurements and health evaluation.
2. Lens insertion – A small incision is made to insert the folded EVO Visian ICL behind the iris.
3. Positioning – The lens unfolds and is properly aligned to correct vision.
4. Recovery – Most patients notice improved vision within 24 hours.
This additive technique supports the natural eye anatomy and results in quick visual recovery with minimal downtime.
