The  Visian ICL™ is capable of correcting a wide range of nearsightedness (Myopia) without the removal or destruction of corneal tissue. If you are between the ages of 21 to 45, have moderate to severe nearsightedness and aren't a candidate for typical Laser Vision Correction procedures, this may be the perfect option for you.
