About Weymouth, MA
Weymouth is a city in Norfolk County in eastern Massachusetts and has a population of around 60,000 residents. The median income is approximately $54,000. It’s the birthplace of Abigail Adams and is the second-oldest township in the state. While Weymouth has a suburban feel, the city is also close enough to Boston for residents to have access to all the attractions in the bigger city. It’s also home to the Adams National Historical Park, Wompatuck State Park, Weymouth Town Beach, and Union Point Sports Complex. Additionally, it’s where you can find the Fore River Bridge, between Weymouth and Quincy.
What is EVO ICL?
EVO ICL (implantable collamer lens) is a type of vision correction surgery that uses a unique synthetic flexible lens placed in front of your natural lens to improve your vision. It’s specifically designed to address nearsightedness and astigmatism.
While it’s often compared to LASIK, it’s very different. Instead of using a laser to reshape the cornea, the EVO ICL procedure makes a tiny slit in the lens to place the new EVO ICL behind the iris and in front of your natural crystalline lens. No corneal tissue is removed at all.
Who is a Good Candidate for an EVO ICL Procedure?
If you are struggling with moderate to severe nearsightedness or astigmatism and are looking for a unique way to address those vision concerns, you are likely a perfect candidate for EVO ICL. That said, there are also other criteria our team looks for when determining if this surgery is right for you.
Ideal Candidates for EVO ICL in Weymouth Are:
- Not a candidate for LASIK surgery
- In good overall health
- Have realistic expectations of treatment
- Have thin corneas
- Have a history of dry eyes
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Between 21 and 45 years old
- Have a stable eye prescription
EVO ICL Benefits
EVO ICL in Weymouth comes with several different benefits, including the following:
- Excellent results: Most patients see a significant improvement in their vision, to the point that many no longer need to wear eyeglasses or contact lenses. And the results will last a lifetime.
- Short recovery time: After your surgery, you will only need to take 1-2 days to rest before you can get back to your normal routine.
- Reversible: If necessary, the EVO ICL surgery can be completely reversed. The lens can be removed, and your eyes will return to what they were before the procedure.
- Outpatient procedure: Because the EVO ICL treatment is completely outpatient, you can go home right after the procedure. No hospital stays necessary.
- Offers built-in UV protection: One of the most surprising benefits of EVO ICLs is that the lenses give your eyes UVA and UVB protection.
- Quick treatment time: Treatment typically takes 20-30 minutes, allowing you to get in and out of the office in no time.
