How long has it been since you woke up and saw clearly?
Millions of Americans live tethered to glasses or contacts—but there’s a quick, proven option that can set you free.
ICL places a tiny lens behind your iris (no corneal reshaping) for crisp vision and a fast recovery—even if you’ve been told you’re not a LASIK candidate.

What Causes Blurry Vision?
Most vision problems are refractive errors. If the eye is too long (myopia), too short (hyperopia), or the cornea is uneven (astigmatism), light focuses off the retina—so the world looks blurry.
Glasses and contacts bend light from the outside. ICL does it from the inside: a tiny biocompatible lens sits behind your iris to focus light precisely—no permanent corneal reshaping.
It’s a strong option for high prescriptions or thin corneas, with a quick recovery and long-term clarity. See if it’s right for you.

How much longer will you spend your time, money, and energy on work-arounds that don’t fix your vision?
Replacing lost or broken glasses
Paying for new prescriptions every year
Dealing with dry, irritating contact lenses
Temporary fixes won't bring permanent clear vision.
EVO ICL: The LASIK Alternative
ICL fixes blurry vision by placing a tiny, soft lens inside your eye—behind the colored part (iris). It works like a permanent contact lens, without the hassle and discomfort, so you can finally say goodbye to glasses and contacts.
There’s no permanent corneal reshaping, recovery is quick, and the lens is removable or replaceable if needed. It’s a strong choice for high prescriptions or thin corneas with an excellent safety record.

How Does ICL Work?
ICL is a minimally-invasive procedure that corrects vision by adding a tiny, soft lens inside the eye, behind the iris. It focuses light correctly so you can eliminate glasses and contacts.
After numbing drops, your surgeon makes a 2–3 mm opening at the edge of the cornea. The flexible lens is placed behind the iris, in front of your natural lens, and the micro-opening self-seals. The lens can be removed or replaced if ever needed.
It’s a quick treatment with fast recovery—most people see clearly within a day or two. No general anesthesia is required, and the procedure usually takes under 30 minutes.

Most patients notice clearer vision within 24 hours.
