The implantable lens is a new option to correct nearsightedness. It's different from Lasik in some important ways.
, Maimoona Azeem was looking for a way to stop wearing glasses and contact lenses.
That’s when her doctor suggested a permanent “implantable contact lens” more formally known as the EVO Visian implantable collamer lens, which was. It’s designed to stay in the eye forever behind the iris without any maintenance. “Of course, there are always those last minute jitters,” Azeem, a speech therapist who lives in Toledo, Ohio, told TODAY. “ I am so happy… I thought my vision was good with my corrective lenses, but I can see so much better now, things are just brighter, more crisp. It’s beautiful.”The new implantable lens is a welcome addition to the options people have to correct nearsightedness, said Dr.
To insert the lens, he makes a small incision in the cornea, injects and positions the lens in behind the iris — the colored part of the eye — and closes the wound, which generally does not require any sutures. Mian called it “a relatively simple procedure” that takes about 10 minutes or less per eye.
