Max Strus' struggle with glasses and contacts
Max Strus struggled with glasses and contacts since the 5th grade. Growing up, his whole family wore glasses and contacts. When Max was traveling for games and on the court, he hated having to worry about his contact lenses possibly popping out. He also suffers from seasonal allergies, so when they would flare up it was even harder to wear contact lenses.
Getting EVO helped Max see life clearly again - without all the hassles of contacts and glasses.
Why Max Strus chose the EVO ICL lens (EVO)
"This decision of getting EVO has been close to my heart because it has been so life changing for me. EVO appealed to me because I liked that it was a quick procedure with little down time for me and that it doesn’t cause Dry Eye Syndrome. Dry eyes can be a big problem for me during training, on the court during a game, and when I’m traveling. And I liked that should I ever want to, the EVO lens can be removable by a doctor for added peace of mind." - Max Strus
