Thanksgiving Closure: We will be closed on 11/28-11/29. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Gulf Coast Eye Care
Choosing the right vision correction procedure is important—but choosing the right surgeon is essential. Patients throughout the region turn to Gulfcoast Eye Care for life-changing results and a personalized, concierge-style experience.
Here’s what sets us apart:
We’re here to help you find the option that best matches your eyes, lifestyle, and long-term vision goals.
While EVO ICL is a great option for patients who don’t qualify for LASIK or PRK, it’s also ideal for those who simply prefer its unique benefits. This lens-based procedure is well suited for individuals with myopia ranging from -3.0 to -20.0 diopters—including patients with thin corneas or dry eyes.
The lens is gently inserted just below the surface of the eye—behind the iris and in front of your natural lens—without altering your corneal structure. Your natural lens stays intact, preserving your eye’s ability to focus while giving you sharper, long-lasting vision.
EVO ICL is an ultra-thin, flexible lens made of Collamer—a biocompatible material that’s invisible and undetectable once in place. It works in harmony with your eye’s natural anatomy, preserving your cornea and maintaining your ability to focus at different distances.
Unlike LASIK or lens replacement surgery, EVO ICL adds to your eye’s structure rather than altering or replacing it. The procedure is also reversible, giving you future flexibility.
EVO ICL gives you more than clear vision—it gives you freedom. Benefits include:
Many patients refer to EVO ICL as an “implantable contact lens”—but with none of the hassle or maintenance.
We make your experience seamless from start to finish.
Dr. Manning is a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained refractive surgeon with a reputation for both surgical precision and compassionate care. He has performed thousands of successful ICL, LASIK, and cataract procedures—and takes the time to make sure each patient fully understands their options before moving forward.
LASIK reshapes the cornea with a laser. EVO ICL places a lens just beneath the surface of the eye—leaving your cornea untouched.
You may be a candidate if you're between -3.0 and -20.0 diopters, have dry eyes or thin corneas, or were told you're not a good candidate for LASIK.
Yes—but it’s also reversible. The lens is designed to stay in place, but it can be removed or replaced if needed.
No. We use numbing drops and light sedation to ensure a comfortable experience.
Most people resume daily activities within 1–2 days. Your vision continues to refine over the next few weeks.
Not at all. The lens is completely undetectable and positioned where you won’t feel it.
