That's neat. I knew they had contacts that would temporarily shape the cornea and your vision would start out great and degrade through the day. "Programming" the cornea is pretty cool.

I don't think I would get LASIK because of the risks, but I have been interested in the EVO ICL lens replacement. If this procedure ends up going retail, I will look into it.
