Are you tired of relying on glasses or contact lenses to see clearly? Do you dream of waking up each morning with perfect vision? At Blue Fin Vision® Eye Clinic, located in the heart of London’s prestigious Harley Street, we offer a cutting-edge solution that’s transforming lives: EVO ICL surgery.
Understanding EVO ICL: The Future of Vision Correction
EVO ICL, which stands for Evolution Implantable Collamer Lens, is a revolutionary vision correction procedure that offers an alternative to traditional laser eye surgeries. But what exactly is an implantable contact lens, and how does it work?
What is an Implantable Contact Lens?
An implantable contact lens is a soft, biocompatible lens that is surgically placed inside the eye to correct vision problems. Unlike traditional contact lenses that sit on the surface of the eye, these lenses are implanted between the iris and the natural lens of the eye, working in harmony with your eye’s natural focusing system.
The EVO ICL Difference
EVO ICL is the latest advancement in implantable lens technology. It offers several key benefits:
- Reversibility: Unlike laser eye surgery, EVO ICL is reversible, providing peace of mind for patients.
- Wide Range of Correction: EVO ICL can correct a broad spectrum of vision problems, including high degrees of short-sightedness and astigmatism.
- UV Protection: The Collamer material used in EVO ICL lenses offers built-in UV protection, contributing to long-term eye health.
- Dry Eye Prevention: As EVO ICL doesn’t involve reshaping the cornea, it reduces the risk of post-operative dry eye syndrome.
How EVO ICL Surgery Works
EVO ICL surgery is a quick and virtually painless procedure. Here’s what you can expect:
- Preparation: Your eyes will be numbed with anaesthetic drops for your comfort.
- Lens Insertion: A small incision is made in the cornea, through which the folded EVO ICL is inserted.
- Lens Positioning: The lens unfolds and is carefully positioned behind the iris and in front of the natural lens.
- Quick Recovery: The procedure typically takes about 20 minutes per eye, and most patients notice significant improvement in their vision within 24 hours.
