EVO ICL™
EVO ICL™ (Implantable Collamer® Lens) is an implant that corrects vision without removing any corneal tissue.
Understanding EVO ICL™
EVO ICL is an implantable Collamer® Lens (ICL) designed to correct nearsightedness with and without astigmatism. The small flexible lens is placed behind the iris (the colored part of the eye) and in front of the natural crystalline lens in order to improve vision. It's like having your doctor implant a lens similar to a contact lens into your eye so you can live without the daily hassles and maintenance of typical contact lenses.

Preparing for EVO ICL™
If our doctors determine that EVO ICL surgery is an appropriate fit for your needs, the preoperative assessment involves measurements of your eyes' prescription and the space under the surface of your eye where we will place the implantable contact lenses. Our team uses advanced and precise pre-operative scan technology to collect medical data with a high level of accuracy to create your permanent Collamer® lenses. We perform the EVO ICL surgery as an outpatient procedure that usually takes 30 minutes to an hour. You can expect significant improvement right after the surgery and you generally can return to your normal activities after 24 to 48 hours following the procedure. Follow-up appointments are scheduled at one day, one week, and one month after your EVO ICL surgery.
