Understanding the Implantable Lens
The implantable lens—also known as the Visian ICL—is a flexible, biocompatible lens placed behind your iris and in front of your natural lens. Unlike LASIK or PRK, no corneal tissue is removed. The lens is designed to correct nearsightedness, with or without astigmatism, and can be a great option if you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for laser surgery.
Pre-Procedure Preparation
Before your procedure, you’ll undergo a comprehensive eye exam to measure your eye’s anatomy and confirm you’re a good candidate. You’ll also receive instructions about how to prepare—this may include avoiding makeup, arranging transportation, and following medication guidelines. Dr. Brian will walk you through every step so you feel confident and informed.
During the Procedure
Your implantable lens procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you’ll return home the same day. Each eye usually takes about 10 minutes to complete, and most patients begin noticing clearer vision as soon as the following day. Dr. Brian uses advanced 1-Step Ultrasound-Guided EVO Visian ICL™ technology, which offers the benefit of enhanced precision and the ability to update the lens in the future if your prescription changes. While the goal is improved vision, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks such as infection, inflammation, underwhelming visual results, or in rare cases, vision loss. That’s why Dr. Brian and every member of his team pay meticulous attention to every detail of your care.
His commitment to safety and outcomes is backed by published research and presentations at leading medical conferences, reflecting their deep expertise in this advanced lens procedure.
Recovery and Aftercare
You’ll rest briefly after the procedure, and your vision may be blurry for a few days. Eye drops will help with healing and inflammation. You’ll have follow-up visits to monitor your recovery and ensure the lens is stable. Many patients see noticeable improvement within 24 hours, and vision continues to sharpen over the following days.
