Take the vision correction Self-Test to find out today!

What is the EVO ICL?

The EVO ICL is a biocompatible lens placed between your iris and natural lens via ultra-small corneal incisions. This differs from LASIK in that there is no corneal tissue removed from the eye to reshape the cornea. This procedure is ideal for patients who have moderate to severe nearsightedness with or without astigmatism, thin corneas, large pupils or persistent dry eye.

Benefits of the EVO ICL

Patients who choose the EVO ICL for their vision correction can enjoy benefits including:

  • Does not permanently alter the structure of the eye
  • Flexible, biocompatible implantable collamer lens syncs perfectly with the eye’s natural movements
  • Minimizes risk of dry eye
  • Provides an extra UV protection layer to the eye
  • Immediate results for many patients
  • Permanent placement, but with an option for removal or replacement if needed or desired
  • A short, minimally invasive procedure that takes just 40 minutes for both eyes
  • Unnoticeable to you or others looking at you

Am I a Good Candidate for the EVO ICL?

The best way to determine your eligibility for the EVO ICL is through a comprehensive consultation with the team at Providence Eye & Laser Specialists. In general, you must:

  • Be between the ages of 22 and 45
  • Have nearsightedness or astigmatism which falls within the range that the EVO ICL can treat
  • Have healthy eyes
  • Be in good overall health
  • Have had a stable prescription for at least one year or more

How Does the EVO ICL Procedure Work?

The EVO ICL procedure is a quick outpatient procedure performed by Dr. Nunnery in our office. Patients typically do not experience any discomfort thanks to topical and/or local anesthetic.

After your eyes have been numbed, your eye surgeon will create a small incision in your cornea, and insert the EVO ICL. Once they ensure it is properly positioned, the procedure is complete.

Most patients notice visual improvements right away, and can get back to their regular routine after just one to two days.
