Readers. Bifocals. Specialty contacts. What if you didn't need any of them? 👀

Wild Card Wednesday — today we're defining RLE: Refractive Lens Exchange. A procedure that replaces your eye's aging lens with a new one built to your prescription, correcting near vision, distance vision, and astigmatism in one permanent procedure — and eliminating your cataract risk for good.

What if I cry with EVO ICL? 😭 We get this question more than you'd think!

Unlike contacts that wash out or shift around, EVO ICL sits *behind* your iris, nestled safely inside your eye. Tears, allergies, emotional movie nights — none of it moves your lens. Not even a little.

LASIK, SMILE, or EVO ICL — what’s the difference? 👁️✨

Start here:

LASIK and SMILE are both laser vision correction procedures. They reshape the cornea to improve how light focuses in your eye.

EVO ICL is lens-based. Instead of reshaping the cornea, a small implantable lens is placed inside the eye to correct vision, and your natural lens stays in place.

The right choice depends on your eyes, your prescription, and your goals — and that’s exactly what a consultation is for.

Three advanced options. Three different approaches. All available from Modern Vision Centers in Des Moines!

A lot of people put off vision correction because they assume recovery is a long, painful process.
