Real Life Stories From Real Life Patients

The thing that I love about the Visian ICL is that they are putting a lens in there that can be removed.

Jennifer Puno | Web Designer

I feel like a big part of health is using what your body already has. Visian ICL is in line with that because it’s keeping your eye completely intact. My eye is still my eye.

Eve Torres Gracie | Jiu Jitsu Instructor

I would never be able to just wake up and go, and now I can literally just roll out of bed and go straight to the farmer's market.

Sara Tso | Chef

There’s a few big road blocks to having glasses and being a photographer. Now I’ve got Visian ICL and I can run out and live my life unhindered.

Andrew Oxenham | Photographer

I had my first opportunity to put my Visian ICL eyes to the test recently in the Amazon rainforest, and it couldn't have been more exciting to be able to spot rare species better than ever.
