What is IntraLase™, and is it better than conventional laser eye surgery?
This again is basic LASIK, however, instead of using the traditional microkeratome instrument to create the corneal flap, surgeons use a separate femtosecond laser. “Intralase” is the product name used by Advanced Medical Optics (AMO) for their femtosecond laser microkeratome. AMO Intralase, Carl Zeiss VisuMax and Ziemer FEMTO LDV are the leading manufacturers of this technology and they claim that the adoption of these lasers can reduce complications and even increase accuracy of results. Femtosecond treatments are the standard at the London Vision Clinic.
