EVO TICL is an implantable collamer lens designed to correct short-sightedness with significant astigmatism. It combines the benefits of EVO ICL with additional cylinder power to sharpen vision.
How EVO TICL corrects astigmatism
This lens is placed inside the eye in front of the natural lens. It is carefully rotated to match the angle of your astigmatism, giving clearer focus in all directions.
- Advanced measurements map the cornea and guide lens choice and alignment.
- The procedure usually takes less than half an hour under local anaesthetic.
- The lens is foldable, so the incision can be very small.
- Most patients notice a rapid improvement in clarity and contrast.
- The lens can be removed or exchanged if necessary later in life.
Who might benefit
EVO TICL suits many people whose astigmatism is too high for standard laser correction. It is particularly helpful when the cornea is thin or irregular, or when maximum quality of vision is a priority.
- Pre-operative scans check eye health, pressure, and internal space.
- Possible risks include pressure changes and cataract formation over time.
- Follow-up visits ensure the lens remains well-aligned.
- Most daily activities resume quickly with minimal discomfort.
- Careful counselling helps match expectations to likely visual outcomes.
