The use of glasses or lenses can sometimes become annoying for people with vision problems. Evo Visian ICL (intraocular contact lens) treatment is one of the methods you can use to improve your visual comfort in such cases.
ICL (Implantable Contact Lens) is a special lens that offers a high level of visual quality and is designed to be inserted into the eye to achieve long-lasting results. With the Evo Visian ICL method, it is possible to have much sharper, vivid and clear vision than glasses or contact lens do. This high-tech lens is easily placed in the eye and it does no harm to the eye. This is done by injecting the lens into the eye shell through a very small hole.
How is the operation performed?
Evo Visian ICL application usually takes 7-12 minutes. In this procedure, which is an outpatient treatment, local anaesthetic eye drops are used to minimize discomfort. The doctor makes a micro-hole in the eye to inject this special lens into the patient. The specially designed lens is injected into the eye through this very small hole and the process is completed. Because a very small hole is drilled into the eye, no sewing is required, and the hole gets closed automatically. This procedure does not cause any pain and the healing process is very fast for the patient.
Who can be applied?
If you are between the ages of 21 and 45 and have visual problems, the Evo Visian ICL application may be appropriate for you. These special lenses can treat myopia up to -18 degrees, astigmatism up to 6, hyperopia up to 10 degrees. This method is very useful for people with very high number of eyes, thin cornea and dry eye, especially when the eye is not laser compatible.
Evo visian ICL is a very successful method
ICL Eye Disease Specialist Op. Dr. Efekan Coşkunseven who is a doctor at Dünyagöz Hospital who performs the Evo Visia practice in Turkey, explains the Evo Visian ICL application as follows for QBlog: “The Evo Visian ICL method is a seam-free operation, and even the patient's eye does not close. Of course, as in each surgery, this operation has also some risks. But in general, it is a very successful method. This surgery has been practiced around for 20 years in the world and 17 years in our hospital.”
Advantages of Evo Visian ICL
You can enjoy a new vision with sharper, clearer, more vibrant and more depth. Even your night vision can get better.
Designed for continuous use, it can still be removed: A normal contact lens or glasses may not be suitable for continuous use. For example, you may have to take it off while you sleep or swim at night. However, Visian ICL is suitable for continuous use as it does not touch the natural corneal structure. It also permanently improves your vision.
Short application time: Visian ICL application is a fast and painless application. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort and can often continue their daily life the next day.
UV protection: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can damage your eyes and cause various eye disorders. However, Visian ICL prevents harmful UVA and UVB rays from entering the eye thanks to its advanced lens material. Thus, it prevents the formation of UV-related eye disorders.
This special lens can be removed if necessary: An advantage of Visian ICL is that it does not interfere with future treatments. Visian ICL protects the structure of the eye, so if the lens is removed in any case, there will be no problem with the eye.
Simplifying the life: As with conventional contact lenses, this lens does not have daily maintenance. You don't have to worry about problems from daily activities such as swimming and sports.
How's the situation around the world?
The first ICL was implanted in 1993. This method, approved by the American Health Organization, is quite common all over the world. From the US to India, from India to Russia and from Russia to Turkey has been implemented in many countries. So far, 500 thousand people have benefited from this surgery.
What do people think about the Evo Visian method?
The satisfaction rate of patients undergoing the Evo Visian ICL operation is over 99 percent. Discovericl.com shares the experience of those who have undergone this operation. The experiences of entomologist and TV show host Phil Torres are as follows: One day I went through the Brazil Rainforest after this operation and I had the opportunity to see the rare species there more than ever. There is nothing more exciting than that for me.”
