Can you still get cataracts if you’ve had an ICL?

Yes—it’s totally possible, and it’s also totally manageable.

As we age, most of us will eventually develop cataracts, whether we’ve had an ICL or not. But here’s the good news: if you had an ICL when you were younger, we can simply remove it at the same time we take out the cataract and replace it with a new lens—all in one smooth procedure.

No stress, no surprises—just clear vision, again.

LASIK isn’t for everyone—and that’s okay.

If your prescription is too strong or your corneas are too thin, there are other safe, effective options.

For very nearsighted patients, the EVO ICL lens implant offers a quick, painless solution. And for those who are farsighted or starting to use reading glasses, a lens exchange procedure might be the better fit.

Every eye is different. We’ll help you find the right path to clear vision.

How many follow-up visits do you need after LASIK?

Not as many as you might think—and we make the process easy.

Most patients come in the very next day so we can take a quick look and make sure everything’s healing properly (which it usually is!). About a week later, your optometrist checks in to see how you're doing, and then we’ll see you again around the one-month mark.

From there, we’ll check on your vision and healing a few more times over the first year. It’s all part of making sure your eyes are healthy and your results last. And if anything, ever feels off, you can count on us to be here for you—right away.

Just had LASIK? Here's what to avoid that first week.
Recovery is simple, but protecting your eyes during that first week is important.

You’ll want to avoid dusty, windy environments and keep anything dirty or irritating—like makeup, lotions, or sunscreen—away from your eyes. Your eyes might feel a little sensitive or dry, so artificial tears and sunglasses can help keep you comfortable.

Good news? You can still shower and bathe as normal, and by the end of the week, most patients are back to full activity.

It’s a small window of care for a lifetime of clear vision!

Wondering what recovery is like after LASIK?

Most patients are surprised by just how easy it is. After the procedure, you’ll go home and rest your eyes—and many people are already seeing pretty well that same day. By the next morning, vision is usually even better.

While your eyes are about 90% healed by day two, we still recommend being gentle with them for the first week. That means no rubbing or exposing them to risk. You’ll be using antibiotic and steroid drops, plus some lubricating tears to ease dryness, which is totally normal and temporary.

By the end of the first week, most people are back to normal life—including driving, working out, and even water activities.

Does LASIK really last forever?

In most cases—yes! With today’s advanced lasers, LASIK results are long-lasting and stable, with very few people ever needing a touch-up.
That said, our eyes naturally change as we age. Around our late 40s or early 50s, the lens inside the eye begins to lose some of its flexibility, which might lead to the need for reading glasses—even if your distance vision is still crystal clear from LASIK.

So, it’s not that LASIK “wore off,” it’s just part of the normal aging process.

Got questions? We’re happy to walk you through it.

Surprised how fast LASIK is? Most people are.

From the moment you step into our laser suite to the moment you walk out—it’s usually about 10 minutes total.

Here’s what happens:
One laser gently creates a flap in just 20 seconds
Then, another laser custom-corrects your vision in 1–2 minutes
No pain. Just numbing drops and a calm, comfortable experience.
That’s it. Simple, fast, and life-changing.

Curious if it’s right for you? Let’s talk.
