EVO ICL in Ventura & Los Angeles County

DLV Vision is your source for revolutionary vision correction solutions. We’re proud to offer our patients the EVO ICL: a revolutionary way to correct vision without eyewear, and without altering key structures in the eye.

See the World More Clearly — Just Like Joe Jonas


The EVO ICL helped singer Joe Jonas overcome myopia and see more clearly, and said it was phenomenal to see his audience when he performs. He was reassured by how non-invasive the EVO ICL procedure is, and that the surgery is reversable, if it’s ever desired.

What is the EVO ICL?


The EVO is a clinically proven implantable contact lens that can help fix even severe myopia, also known as nearsightedness, and astigmatism. The EVO ICL is made up of a biocompatible material that works seamlessly with your eyes: during an outpatient procedure, this advanced lens is placed into your eye to enhance your vision.

Because the EVO ICL is implanted in addition to your eye’s natural lens, no cornea or lens tissue is altered or removed during the procedure. Combine that with the fact that the lens can be replaced, and you have one of the most unobtrusive and flexible vision correction surgeries!

Did You Know?


DLV Vision is one of the first ICL centers in the nation to offer the Sonomed UBM (ultrasound biomicroscopy), which measures the precise area for lens insertion to improve sizing of the lens. Dr. Dougherty helped pioneer the ICL technology and was one of just a handful of surgeons in the U.S. to serve as a principal investigator for the ICL FDA clinical study.

In December 2005, DLV Vision hosted the first post-approval ICL training session for U.S. ophthalmologists from across the nation and many continue to come to our centers to observe Dr. Dougherty performing the ICL procedure.

To date, Dr. Dougherty has performed over 4,000 ICL surgeries. Dr. Dougherty is the No. 1 ICL implanter in Los Angeles and Ventura County! He is also the No. 1 provider in the western U.S. as well, which makes him the most experienced in our markets.
