In Harmony With Your Natural Eye

It's Additive, So Your
Eye Is Still Your Eye

Unlike other procedures, ICL is an additive procedure that doesn't require removing corneal tissue or removing your natural lens.

Focus on You, Natural You

Change can be scary, but as you strive to improve your quality of life, ICL is here to help you find comfort in exploring what’s possible.

Embrace All That’s Natural

Similar to adding a lens to a camera, ICL works with the natural parts of your eye to improve your vision so you can see the world.

Oh And Theyre Removable

Oh, And They’re Removable

ICLs are removable, providing you with both flexibility and peace of mind.

It Only Takes 30 Minutes

The ICL procedure is minimally invasive and the lens is implanted through a small opening allowing for a quick procedure and recovery time. With over 2,000,000 lenses distributed worldwide, ICL is quickly becoming a vision correction procedure of choice for many people around the world.
