IntraLase LASIK Laser Eye Surgery

IntraLase LASIK Eye Surgery is one of the most advanced forms of vision corrective surgery. The procedure involves a laser being used to create a flap on the outer part of the eye through which another laser is used to reshape the inner cornea.

The main difference between IntraLase LASIK Surgery and traditional LASIK Surgery is the use of a femtosecond laser instead of a microkeratome blade.

Substantial benefits have been reported from IntraLase LASIK Laser Eye Surgery which are mainly due to how the flap on the outer part of the eye is created. This flap heals significantly quicker when compared to traditional PRK methods which actually damage or destroy the outer part of the eye requiring a longer period of time for it to grow back.

What does IntraLase LASIK Laser Eye Surgery involve?

IntraLase LASIK Laser Eye Surgery uses a sophisticated computer programme to guide the femtosecond laser beam as it makes an incision into the outer part of the eye thus creating a flap. The flap is then lifted and a second laser is used to reshape the inner cornea so that the eyes vision is corrected. The flap is then repositioned to enable it to heal quickly.

IntraLase LASIK Laser Eye Surgery is a generally safe and popular procedure. A qualified consultant will provide you with information including the possible side effects prior to or during the consultation stage. The risks of having any vision threatening side effects are minimal.
