Still relying on glasses or contacts to get through the day? Are those glasses and contacts holding you back from living life to the fullest? Are you looking for a reversible, less invasive vision correction option? Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) surgery might be your answer.
At Kleiman Evangelista, our experienced surgeons place a biocompatible lens inside your eye, behind the iris and in front of your natural lens, to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism with precision. You can think of it like inserting a contact lens inside your eye. The result? Clear, dependable vision without daily maintenance or eyewear.
