IntraLase Blade-free LASIK surgery
Irvine, CA based IntraLase Corp. designs, develops, and manufactures innovative ultra-fast lasers, the related guidance software and devices for vision correction. Recognizing the need for greater safety and precision in Step One, corneal flap creation, IntraLase developed a femtosecond laser to replace mechanical microkeratomes in creating a more precise and safer corneal flap and improved LASIK results. The IntraLase FS laser is rapidly transforming refractive and corneal surgery enabling safer, more precise results with enhanced predictability.
The IntraLase Method
- The bladeless IntraLase Method uses tiny, rapid pulses of laser light to create the corneal flap—not handheld metal microkeratome.
- Pulses of laser light pass through the outer layers of the cornea and form microscopic bubbles at the exact depth and position predetermined by the physician.
- The IntraLase Method allows for great control and accuracy over handheld microkeratomes, which are limited in to cutting the corneal flap as a single one-dimension incision.
