Visian™ ICL

There is yet another exciting vision correction option for people with moderate to severe nearsighted: Visian™ ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens). Pit Gills, MD is pleased to offer this new lens in the Tampa Bay area.

The Visian™ ICL is a lens that is permanently implanted in the eye behind the iris and in front of the natural lens. It works by bending light rays so that they focus on the retina.

Unlike contact lenses, the Visian™ ICL will never dry out, become dirty, get lost, or need to be re-inserted in the eye each morning. It offers people who are not good candidates for laser vision correction the freedom from having to wear glasses and contact lenses.

If you are interested in hearing more about this and the many other vision correction options St. Luke’s offers, call for an appointment with cataract and refractive surgery specialist Pit Gills, MD.
