According to multiple studies that have been completed where the Intralase (blade free LASIK) laser was compared to the microkeratome laser used in surgeries such as LASIK, the Intralase was found to significantly reduce your risk of having complications. The Intralase laser provides more stability and greater flap precision when compared to LASIK. LASIK’s greatest complication is flap problems after surgery. Because Intralase is so precise, this risk is significantly reduced.
