The EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) represents the next evolution in vision correction technology. Unlike LASIK or SMILE, which reshape your cornea, EVO ICL adds a biocompatible lens to your eye—like a permanent contact lens that you never have to remove or clean.
Why Beverly Hills Chooses EVO ICL:
✨ Completely Reversible: Can be removed or replaced if needed
✨ No Dry Eye: Doesn't affect corneal nerves like LASIK
✨ UV Protection: Built-in UV blocking for eye health
✨ HD Vision Quality: Superior night vision with less glare
✨ Wide Range: Corrects -3 to -20 diopters of myopia

Are You an EVO ICL Candidate?
Perfect candidates for EVO ICL typically meet these criteria:
"I was told I wasn't a LASIK candidate due to my high prescription and thin corneas. Dr. Khanna recommended EVO ICL, and it's been life-changing! I see better than I ever did with contacts, and knowing it's reversible gives me peace of mind."
- Sarah M., Beverly Hills Executive
"As a professional athlete, my vision is everything. The quick recovery and exceptional night vision from EVO ICL have enhanced my performance. Dr. Khanna's expertise made the entire process seamless."
How is EVO ICL different from the older ICL versions?
EVO ICL features a central port that allows natural fluid flow, eliminating the need for peripheral iridotomy in most cases. It also has improved optics and a larger optical zone for better night vision.
Will I feel the lens in my eye?
No, the EVO ICL is completely undetectable once implanted. It sits behind your iris where you cannot feel it, similar to how you don't feel your natural lens.
Can EVO ICL correct astigmatism?
Yes! The Toric EVO ICL can correct both myopia and astigmatism up to 6 diopters, providing comprehensive vision correction.
How long does the EVO ICL last?
The EVO ICL is designed to be permanent but can be removed or replaced at any time. The lens material doesn't degrade, so it can last a lifetime.
What about future cataract surgery?
The EVO ICL doesn't prevent or complicate future cataract surgery. If needed, the lens can be easily removed during cataract surgery.
