Bladeless LASIK

The IntraLase Method ™is a 100% blade-free approach to creating your corneal flap for your LASIK procedure.  The Intralase Method ™ can only be performed using the IntraLase FS laser.

Traditionally, doctors have used an instrument called a microkeratome for the creation of corneal flaps.  The microkeratome is a hand-held blade that moves across the eye, cutting the corneal flap as it goes.  While LASIK is extremely safe, if complications do occur the microkeratome is most often the cause.

The IntraLase Method™  delivers outstanding results: more patients achieve vision that is 20/20 or better when the Intralase  method is used.
