The Eye Center Offers Visian ICL - An Excellent Alternative to Lasik

Recently updated

Columbia, SC, July 27, 2024 - Are you tired of wearing glasses or contact lenses? Do you want to improve your vision and are not a candidate for a surgical procedure like Lasik? Look no further than The Eye Center, P.A. in Columbia, South Carolina. They are proud to offer the Visian ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) as an excellent alternative to traditional laser eye surgery.

The Eye Center, P.A. is a premier ophthalmology practice that serves the Columbia community. Their team of highly skilled doctors, including Dr. Brian Huff, Dr. Matthew Clary and Dr. Chip Platt, provide their patients with the best possible eye care using the latest technology and techniques.

One of the most popular procedures at The Eye Center is Lasik (Laser-Assisted In-Situ Keratomileusis), which uses a laser to reshape the cornea and correct vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. However, not everyone is a suitable candidate for Lasik due to factors such as thin corneas or high prescriptions.

This is where Visian ICL comes in as an excellent alternative option for those who are not eligible for Lasik or prefer not to undergo a surgical procedure on their cornea. Visian ICL involves implanting a tiny lens made of biocompatible material between the iris and natural lens of the eye. This lens works with your natural eye structures to correct your vision and can be removed or replaced if necessary.

Dr. Brian Huff, one of the experienced ophthalmologists at The Eye Center, explains why Visian ICL is an excellent choice for patients: "Visian ICL offers many benefits over traditional laser eye surgery such as Lasik. It does not alter the shape of your cornea, so it is reversible and can be removed or replaced if needed. It also provides excellent visual outcomes with minimal risk of complications."

The Eye Center is proud to be one of the few practices in the Columbia area to offer Visian ICL. Their doctors have undergone extensive training and have a proven track record of successful procedures. They use state-of-the-art technology to ensure precise measurements and accurate placement of the Visian ICL.

Dr. Matthew Clary, another skilled ophthalmologist at The Eye Center, adds: "Our patients love the convenience of Visian ICL. The procedure only takes about 15 minutes per eye, and most patients experience improved vision immediately after surgery. Recovery time is also minimal, with most patients able to resume their daily activities within a day or two."

The Visian ICL has been approved by the FDA since 2005 and has been used successfully in over 1 million procedures worldwide. It has a high satisfaction rate among patients who have undergone the procedure, with many reporting improved vision without any side effects.

The Eye Center prides itself on providing personalized care for each patient's unique needs. They offer a comprehensive consultation process to determine if Visian ICL is the right option for you. Their team will discuss your medical history, perform a thorough eye exam and answer any questions you may have before making a recommendation.

Dr. Chip Platt emphasizes that safety is their top priority: "We want our patients to feel comfortable and confident in their decision to undergo any procedure at our practice. That's why we take the time to educate them about all their options and make sure they are well-informed before proceeding with any treatment."

In addition to offering Visian ICL, The Eye Center also provides a range of other services such as cataract surgery, glaucoma treatment, and dry eye management. They are committed to staying at the forefront of ophthalmology advancements to provide their patients with the best possible care.
