About Quincy, MA
Quincy is a city in Norfolk County in eastern Massachusetts. It has a population of around 103,000 residents and is part of the Greater Boston area as one of Boston’s southern suburbs. It’s known as the “City of Presidents” because it was home to two U.S. presidents: John Adams and John Quincy Adams. It’s also home to the Adams National Historical Park, where the family homes are preserved. Quincy also consists of a number of beaches, including Wollaston Beach, Avalon Beach, and Nickerson Beach. The city also features a vibrant downtown area (known as Quincy Center) with a mix of restaurants and bars, boutiques, and other shopping opportunities.
What is the EVO ICL Procedure?
An EVO ICL (implantable collamer lens) is a flexible, implantable lens that helps correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. It’s a minimally-invasive way to improve your vision and a great alternative to glasses and contact lenses. The lens is implanted behind the iris and in front of your natural lens.
The EVO ICL has been through multiple clinical studies and has been proven safe and effective time and time again. And as it’s an outpatient procedure, you will be able to go back home the same day.
Typically, both eyes will be operated on during one visit, ensuring you don’t have to come in for another procedure.
Who is a Good Candidate for EVO ICL?
If you have astigmatism, nearsightedness, or cannot have LASIK due to thin corneas or a high prescription, you are likely a perfect candidate for EVO ICL. On top of those specifications, there are additional criteria we look for in ideal candidates for EVO ICL.
Ideal Candidates for EVO ICL in Quincy Are:
- In good overall health
- Have large pupils
- Have a history of dry eye
- Have moderate to severe astigmatism
- Want a removable or reversible option
EVO ICL Benefits
The benefits you can expect from EVO ICL in Quincy include the following:
- Better vision: You will notice a significant improvement in your vision right after your EVO ICL procedure. You may notice some initial blurriness, but that will fade in the first few days, leaving you with clearer vision.
- No need for glasses or contact lenses: Having to constantly wear, clean, and maintain glasses and contact lenses can be frustrating. But after your EVO ICL treatment, you won’t have any need for them anymore.
- Can be used on a wide range of patients: EVO ICL is appropriate for many patients who would otherwise be without a vision correction procedure. If you have dry eyes or thin or irregular corneas, you can still have this treatment.
- Reversible: EVO ICL is not permanent. If needed, the lens can be removed at any time.
- Quick treatment: With EVO ICL, each eye only takes about 15-30 minutes. The whole procedure shouldn’t take more than an hour.
