Dr. Park highlights the differences between laser vision correction and EVO ICL, emphasizing that EVO ICL does not involve cutting corneal tissue but uses lenses to correct vision. He notes that a tiny hole in the center of the lens ensures proper aqueous humor flow, potentially preventing increased intraocular pressure or cataracts.
Dr. Park stresses the importance of thorough pre-surgical examinations, including precise measurements of lens size and vitreous distance (bolt). He advises considering factors such as corneal thickness, prescription strength, and anterior chamber depth to select an appropriate surgical method.
Post-operative care is also crucial, with regular checks on lens position, bolt, intraocular pressure, and corneal endothelial cell status recommended. Dr. Park suggests that vision correction decisions are lifelong commitments, advocating for thorough examinations and consultations to fully understand the pros and cons before making a choice.
