Visian ICL

VisianHave you heard about Visian ICL? Are you seeking a Visian ICL Boston specialist? The "High Definition Vision" delivered by the Visian ICL makes this proven, technologically advanced vision correction procedure the choice for patients who need and expect high quality results. In fact, the U.S. military has embraced the Visian ICL because of the reliable visual clarity it achieves. The Visian ICL is clearly the choice for patients with an active lifestyle and those who cannot accept anything less than the highest quality vision.

Collamer is a revolutionary material used exclusively in making STAAR® Surgical Company corrective lenses, including several models of the Visian ICL. Its name comes from the combination of “collagen” and "polymer". Because it is made with collagen, Collamer is compatible with your body’s natural chemistry, and contributes to the High Definition Visian found only in the Visian ICL.

visian icl boarderThe implantation procedure for the Visian ICL involves a procedure similar to that of cataract surgery. The main difference is that, unlike cataract surgery, the Visian ICL procedure does not require the removal of the eye's crystalline lens. And unlike the LASIK or PRK refractive procedures, the Visian ICL procedure does not involve the removal of sensitive eye tissue.

How does Visian™ ICL Give Super Clear Vision?

Quality of Vision Excellence – High Definition Visian™

visian iclThe Visian ICL offers vision correction that's sharper, clearer, more vivid, and has greater depth and dimension than other procedures. The main advantage of the Visian ICL over traditional corrective laser eye surgery is that patients may experience significant improvement in quality of vision after the lens is implanted 1. When compared to the results of corneal refractive surgery, the Visian ICL may produce superior vision quality as evidenced by fewer higher order aberrations 2. Patients experience a nearly immediate visual recovery and"Wow!" results.

How can I finance the Visian ICL?

At Clear Advantage Vision Correction Center we don't collect any fee until the date of surgery. We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard, Bank Check or Cash. We also offer interest free payment plans to make your procedure more affordable. With over 250 optometrists in New England currently involved in our co-management program, we would be delighted to speak with your doctor if he/she is not part of our network and is interested in participating.

Wide Treatment Range

The Visian ICL has proven to be effective in patients within a wide range of refractive errors. In fact, the Visian ICL can correct myopia from as low as -3.0 diopters to -16.0 diopters and reduce myopia from -16.0 diopters up to as high as -20.0 diopters with or without astigmatism. Before now, some of these individuals were not candidates for surgical eye correction. Clinical studies have shown how the Visian ICL is truly a breakthrough myopia treatment in terms of vision correction results. Because implantation of the phakic IOL does not require any structural alteration of the eye, results are predictable and very stable.

Advantages

Technologically Advanced Lens Material

Unlike other phakic IOLs, the Visian ICL is made from Collamer, a technologically advanced lens material exclusive to STAAR Surgical Company.

Exceptional Patient Experience

Simple, Safe & Invisible Lens

Because the Visian ICL is implanted in the posterior chamber, behind the iris, unlike other phakic IOLs, the lens is invisible to both the patient and any observer. Also, its positioning in the eye maintains normal iris function, promotes stability, and may reduce potential complications.

The"Wow" Factor

After the simple 15-minute outpatient procedure, patients experience an immediate improvement in vision quality and are"Wowed" by the results.
