What is Intralase?
The Intralase technique can be used during both PRK and LASIK. When combined with CustomVue TM, the overall vision correction procedure is known as iLASIK.
This laser treatment is a 100 percent blade-free technique is used to create the corneal flap. The Intralase laser creates tiny bubbles in the cornea, the bubbles are carefully separated to form a flap during the LASIK procedure. After the flap is created, an excimer laser is used to treat the cornea and correct the patient’s vision.
For more information on iLASIK and other vision correction procedures, contact the ClearView Eye and Laser Medical Team for a complimentary consult.
