Benefits
The procedure corrects a wide range of eye prescriptions quickly and effectively, delivering excellent night vision and even built-in UV protection. It is designed to provide permanent vision correction, although it is both removable and replaceable, if needed. EVO is an ideal option for patients who don’t prefer glasses or contact lenses and are not candidates for laser eye surgery.
The recovery time for the EVO ICL is very quick, comfortable, and, in some cases, as little as a day due to the small size of the incision made during the procedure. The incision needed to implant the foldable EVO ICL is located on the far edge of the cornea, where there is little danger of it interfering with vision.
The unique technology of the EVO ICL also removes a hurdle required by other types of ICLs prior to ICL surgery. With other types of ICLs, you are required to have a laser procedure, called a laser peripheral iridotomy, or LPI, prior to ICL surgery.
The laser peripheral iridotomy procedure reduces the likelihood of an eye pressure spike after ICL surgery. However, thanks to the advanced technology of the EVO ICL, this step is not necessary.
This means you can schedule your EVO ICL procedure quicker and experience clear vision sooner.
