Most surgeons acknowledge that the main safety issues in laser vision correction are related to the use of the microkeratome. Multiple studies which compare the incidence of complications when using the IntraLase laser versus the microkeratome have shown a significant decrease in the events that adversely impact safety.

1. LASIK surgery may be elective but good vision is not. We understand how valuable your sight is to you, and we keep our sights set on finding the safest and most advanced technology for our patients.
2. With IntraLase and its customization components, our surgeons can treat a wider variety of patients, including patients with thin corneas.
3. IntraLase is the most sophisticated technology available today. Our surgeons believe that IntraLase is more predictable, more precise and ultimately safer than the traditional approach commonly used in the first step of the laser vision correction procedure. Our patients confirm that it has significantly contributed to their confidence in the procedure.
4. We believe in providing the most advanced technology to our patients and are consistently the first to do so. Leading surgeons nationwide are rapidly adopting the IntraLase technology, and approximately 100,000 eyes have now been treated with this advanced technology. IntraLase has become the standard of care in our practice.
5. We continually strive to increase the standard for patient care in our practice. We believe that IntraLase – by eliminating the surgical blade – allows us to provide a more predictable and safer procedure than we were able to offer prior to this technology.
