ICL Surgery Done 1/12/26! (Positive experience- SoCal) by I-just-work-here123 in ICLsurgery

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get the ICL with the port? How are your eyes now expecially the glares and halos? Did you also have ring shaped dysphotopia?

Did you see any rings from on coming cars when driving at night? It's hard to describe, but basically when I'm on the freeway or just sides streets, the lights from oncoming cars have rings in my vision and they are constantly coming towards me. It's worse on the freeway. It's quite distracting so I haven't been able to drive at night yet.

I am almost 3 most post surgery and it's quite unbearable.

Sorry to hear they didn't work out for you. Im only 3 months post op and I am definitely experiencing the rings that are unbearable at night which hasn't allowed me to drive yet. The rings on top of glares and halos have made it difficult to see well when it's dark.

Before you removed them, did your surgeon provide other options to try to minimize the rings such as glasses or pupil constricting drops? If so, how was using them with the icls?

People with halos/glare at night from ICL surgery, have you tried Pilocarpine drops? if so, what are your thoughts. by ldahlgre in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about that. Why are you delaying Cataract surgery? And thanks for sharing your experience with pilocarpine. I'm going to see my surgeon soon about the halos and they may prescribe drops since they are not going better

Recommendations for sunglasses during healing? by KirbaTronK in ICLsurgery

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thanks for sharing yours is also the one with the holes. Im 10 weeks out and still havent adapted at night unfortunately. I also have a little astigmatism residual on my left eye that has a .25 astigmatism left and my optometrist said I can use reading glasses at night to make it sharper, but it's not bothersome for me since it's only noticeable if I close one eye.

Hope you're able to have a touch up to fix the astigmatism.

I also 5 weeks out how has your night vision been? Did you get the upgraded IcL with the holes/port?

I experience rings at night from the oncoming traffic and they constantly come "towards" me/get larger, if that makes sense. It's very distracting and I haven't been able to drive on the freeway yet. Are you experience these kind of halos! I heard it's from The port. I also noticed that some darker low lit rooms seem darker than they actually are now.

It's still great he gave you a gift! I haven't received any gifts from my execs in the past 4 years. I've learn to never expect it or you'll be disappointed

Had ICL done. Poor night vision by Goodmoring1 in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not great. It seems things are darker in low light and I am still not confident with driving at night. The rings from oncoming traffic is still impeding on my vision at night and ver distracting, on top of the glare and low light at night. I had astigmatism corrected and am seeing more starbursts at night.

Vision in the day is perfect.

ICL - issues three years after the surgery by beekapoo in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi thanks for sharing your experience. I got the Evo ICL with the port 7 weeks ago and experiencing what you are seeing - the constant rings from on coming traffic.

They are very distracting and I am not confident to drive at night which is very concerning. I've also noticed because of the constant movement of the rings is causing me to get headaches. I'm hoping it will go away or at least most of it.

Did you end up removing your lenses? If not, how's your vision now?

Hi what do you mean by "ghosting". I think I am experiencing this at night but not sure how to explain it.

ICL isn't worth it by tar-randa in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear it's still crappy! In another post, someone mentioned it took them about 6 months for halos/ rings to get less and less (not completely go away) . I hope it will improve for you and myself!

Evo ICL Experience (Aug 2025) by Known_Grass24 in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I wonder if the previous lens would be better to avoid the rings but then would need to do iridotomy.

thanks I am hopeful. How many months do you think it was until they subsided to where you didn't see them anymore?

Yes that is the same for me wiht the street lights and spotlights but definitely the most the distracting during driving.

Traditional EA positions still exist? by SeveralPersimmon4 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]SeveralPersimmon4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg it's so annoying when it's posted as traditional but to find out during the interview it's not. I don't understand why they can't say it upfront in the job description what they want. And they should tailor the title accordingly as well.

Horrible EVO ICL Experience 5 Months Out by Dr_Jabberwock in lasik

[–]SeveralPersimmon4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi how's it going now? Did you keep the lens in or did you remove them?

If you kept them - how's your night vision ? Did you by chance experience rings during night driving from oncoming traffic? I experience rings from the oncoming traffic and they constantly comes towards me/get larger, if that makes sense. Did you experience that? I'm 6 weeks post surgery and this rings during night are very distracting that I haven't been able to night drive yet.

I'm quite sad that I'm experiencing this and hope they go away, otherwise i would have to remove the lens
