Insertable lenses are one of the most
exciting new breakthroughs in the field of enhanced
vision care. After 13 years of study in Europe, insertable
lenses are now approved by FDA to correct vision.
The procedure is an outpatient
that can be typically performed in 10 minutes with the goal of improvement to the patient's vision by the very next day.
Visian ICL can also be updated with a new prescription
should vision change in the future. Potential benefit of Visian ICL is improved eyesight and potential risks are suboptimal vision, infection, inflammation, loss of vision among others. That is the reason Dr. Brian and every staff member here are all highly "detail-oriented" about every step of the process for every patient. Dr. Brian and his team have published results in the medical literature and presented results at numerous medical conferences on Visian ICL.
