New upgrade for ICL: available for people with astigmatism
At VLEC, we have been using EVO ICL for over one year and the results are oustanding. Many very happy patients!
What is ICL surgery?
ICL, are contact lenses that are surgically inserted into the eye. They provide excellent quality of vision with predictable and stable results. And are removable.
Key Benefits
- Sharp clear vision
- Does not induce dry eye syndrome
- Great for those with thin cornea
- UV protection built into the biocompatible lenses
- Resume daily activities in just a few short days
Good to Know
If you are in your 20s, 30s or 40s and have extreme myopia and astigmatism (-3 to -25 diopters) or hyperopia (+3 to +8 diopters) thin or relatively unhealthy corneas, ICL may be your best alternative - as LASIK or PRK may not be safe for your eyes.
In the event of a major prescription change or the availability of new vision correction options, ICL is completely removable.
