If you’re seeking a long-term, glasses-free solution for high nearsightedness or astigmatism, EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) surgery may be the answer. Dr. Allison Jarstad, a leading refractive surgeon in Medford, Oregon, offers EVO ICL to patients throughout Southern Oregon, Ashland, and the Rogue Valley.
What Is EVO ICL?
EVO ICL is an advanced vision correction procedure that involves implanting a soft, biocompatible lens between the iris and the eye’s natural lens. Unlike LASIK or PRK, EVO ICL does not remove corneal tissue, making it ideal for patients with high prescriptions, thin corneas, or dry eyes.
What to Expect During EVO ICL Surgery
- Consultation: Dr. Jarstad will assess your eye health and vision needs.
- Custom Measurements: Detailed imaging is used to size your custom lens.
- Outpatient Procedure: The surgery is quick and typically painless.
- Recovery: Most patients notice improved vision within 24–48 hours.
