Implantable collamer lenses (ICLs) work alongside your natural eye structures, inserted just behind the iris while leaving the cornea untouched. This means no flap creation or extensive corneal reshaping, making it especially appealing to those who lack the thickness or stability required for LASIK or PRK.
By placing a soft, biocompatible lens inside the eye, implantable collamer lens treatment in Manhattan can dramatically reduce one's dependence on glasses or contact lenses. It often delivers crisp, high-quality vision with less postoperative dryness or discomfort.
In this informative video, our very own Dr. Ilan Cohen, a renowned pioneer (2008) in the field of ophthalmology, breaks down the fundamentals of EVO ICL. You'll discover the science behind this game-changing procedure and learn how it is revolutionizing vision correction.
Opting for an implantable collamer lens can yield several key advantages:
If you're 21 or older, have moderate to high myopia, a stable prescription, and desire a reversible method of vision correction, ICL treatment in Manhattan could be an excellent fit.

During your evaluation, Dr. Cohen will review your ocular dimensions, general health, and lifestyle considerations to confirm if ICL suits your vision goals.
