It provides some patients with an option that is safe and effective
Laser vision correction options can be confusing. We’ve made the journey as straightforward as can be
Our patients can appreciate the beauty all around them with clear natural vision
Embrace beautiful natural vision
If you’ve worn glasses and contact lenses your whole life, you’ll be familiar with the many trials and tribulations that accompany them. Glasses can make you feel inconvenienced, self-conscious and restricted, while contact lenses can be uncomfortable, cause dry eyes and increase your risk of eye infections.
After ICL surgery, you’ll have freed yourself from their limiting nature and can enjoy life with the beautiful natural vision you deserve.
When frustration turns into freedom
Studies have shown that the transition from visually dependent to visual liberation can do amazing things for your quality of life. Our patients report feeling more confident, healthy and more eager to join in on social events and activities.
Your setbacks become successes
Whether you’re into extreme sports, gentle walks or morning talks over coffee, there’s nothing more distracting than your glasses slipping down your nose, fogging-up or falling-off. Contact lenses can be just as bad; they can slip out of place, require constant cleaning and storing, and can cost a small fortune over time!
After ICL surgery, our patients live worry-free. They no longer have to endure the inconveniences of glasses and contacts and find they have more energy and drive to devote to their hobbies, careers and the people around them.
Don’t settle for anything less
If poor vision and a life of glasses and contacts are all you know, it can be easy to accept their drawbacks and just carry on.
Don’t!
Not many things are as precious as sight, and the experiences and opportunities that amazing natural vision can give you are priceless. Our patients will tell you that their only regret is that they didn’t do it sooner.
