LASIK using the IntraLase FS Laser is called IntraLASIK. To make the corneal flap, the IntraLase FS Laser, the laser beam is focused into a tiny spot of energy that passes harmlessly through the outer layers of the cornea until reaching its exact focal point within the central layer of the cornea. There the corneal flap procedure is initiated, silently and painlessly, with remarkable precision. The IntraLase FS Laser can also be used to create the channels and entry cuts for placement of Intacs. Ideal Candidate:

One of the most popular ways to correct vision is with a procedure called LASIK (laser in-situ keratomileusis), which uses a laser to change the curvature of the cornea (outer window of the eye). LASIK has quickly become the procedure of choice for most patients because they recover quickly and have fewer side effects and complications than with other methods of vision correction. In fact, most LASIK patients notice a significant improvement in their vision soon after surgery. Ideal Candidate:
Over 18 with healthy corneas

The word "Phakic" refers to those who have not undergone cataract surgery and still have their eye's natural internal lens. IOL stands for "intra-ocular lens." In the Phakic IOL procedure, an intra-ocular lens is placed inside the eye. The patient's natural lens is not removed, as it would be in cataract surgery. There are three lens designs under development. The NuVita lens is placed in front of the iris. The Verisyse?, or iris claw lens is attached on the front of the iris. Ideal Candidate:
Severe nearsightedness or farsightedness

PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy)

Contact Office Physician's Approach:
PRK was the first procedure performed using the Excimer laser. It corrects vision by reshaping the cornea. The difference between LASIK and PRK is that with LASIK a corneal flap is created and the laser is applied to the inner tissue of the cornea. With PRK, the epithelium (or outer skin of the cornea) is removed and a laser is applied to the surface of the cornea. PRK can be used to correct low to high levels of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Ideal Candidate:
Nearsightedness

At Laser Eye Center, our surgeons are the first to utilize LADARWavey? CUSTOMCORNEA? wavefront technology to measure and address both lower and higher order aberrations (visual imperfections in the eye's optical system). Unless both lower and higher order aberrations are addressed during laser vision correction, the quality of your vision may not be ideal, even if you have post-operative vision of 20/20.

Over 100,000 Patients Have Trusted Their Eyes To Laser Eye Center, How About You...
Thank you all of the staff at the Laser Eye Center! Having my vision permanently corrected with the "lasik" procedure has been one of the best things I've ever done for myself! From waking up in the morning and being able to see the clock, and read-out on my nightstand, to driving, watching television, even putting on make-up! Being able to see clearly without wearing glasses is truly amazing! I had the procedure done on a Friday, and that weekend, I went to the mall and bought a pair of non-prescription sunglasses right off the rack what a treat! Seeing is believing! Thanks again.
