What is iLASIK and how does it work?
The combination of CustomVue Wavefront and IntraLase blade-free LASIK, the iLASIK procedure is one of the most precise medical procedures performed today. The iLASIK Method uses two computer-guided lasers — instead of one as in earlier generations of LASIK. The first, ultra-fast laser creates a thin corneal flap, which is then folded back to allow the second laser to correct your vision based on the exact specification/measurements of your eye(s). The procedure takes just minutes. Patients experience a quick, virtually painless procedure with the potential of 20/20 or better vision and outstanding safety as a result of reduced flap complications. It is these technological advances used in the iLASIK procedure that convinced the military and NASA that iLASIK was good enough for their mission-critical personnel.
