When patients do the proper research into laser vision correction surgery, they quickly realize that not all laser eye centers are on equal footing. For instance, there may be a notable difference in technology between different eye centers, which can dramatically change the options for patients. Even more importantly, a lack of real experience in and focus on laser eye surgery is an indication that patients should look elsewhere. On the technology side, IntraLASIK is an advanced laser technology that allows refractive surgeons to perform "all-laser" LASIK surgery. In LASIK surgery, there are two basic steps. The first is to cut a thin flap in the cornea. The second step involves the surgeon lifting up the flap of the cornea in order to reshape the corneal material underneath. Traditionally, a blade, in the form of a microkeratome machine, was used to make the cut. The IntraLASIK laser allows the surgeon to make the cut with a laser instead of a blade. Finding the Best of the IntraLASIK Eye Centers
The IntraLASIK laser is not available at all eye centers, by any means. The surgeons of the Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley, however, invested in the IntraLASIK technology as soon as it became available, recognizing the benefits to patients. Most patients love the idea of the IntralLASIK laser making the cut, rather than an actual blade. Discover the differences between laser eye centers by browsing all the information here on the website for the Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley. The experience and technology make all the difference for successful surgery. To schedule a consultation, call today.
