Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley is one of the finest refractive surgery centers in the United States specializes in all laser lasik.
All laser Lasik, or IntraLasik is one of the most convenient ways of removing vision disorders such as nearsightedness and long-sightedness. In case of such eye problems you normally wear corrective eye glasses or contact lenses. However, wearing glasses does not give the feel of natural vision.
When it comes to surgery of any kind, most of us would be excused for avoiding it out of fear of pain or any other complications. However, the development of new laser techniques have made easier and more effective surgery options available. Surgeries such as all laser Lasik can cure your vision problems without pain and the recovery time is also drastically reduced.
All Laser Lasik Procedure
The procedure of this surgery is very simple and painless. The doctor puts drops on your eyes to numb it. A flap is then created in the cornea of the eye with the help of a femtosecond laser microkeratome. This is where the procedure differs from traditional Lasik.
In traditional Lasik, the flap is created with the help of a mechanical micropkeratome metal blade. In fact, the name IntraLasik itself describes this process. The word Intra has been taken from ‘Intralase,’ the manufacturer of femtosecond laser. Once this flap is created, doctors then remove part of the corneal tissues to reshape it. After which the flap is replaced.
Advantages of All Laser Lasik
The use of a femtosecond laser provides the ability of precise positioning of the flap with accurate thickness. The thickness of the flap remains even throughout due to the laser instead of the mechanical blade and complications related to the flap or epithelial are easily avoided by this method. Effectively, the surgery is more precise than the traditional Lasik and is increasingly preferred by doctors.
All Laser Lasik surgery is a definite requirement for people who have epithelial defects, thin corneas or large pupils. However, any one who wishes to go in for refractive surgery involving the corneal flap can opt for this surgery.
In the United States All Laser Lasik surgeries are frequently performed. If you happen to be in the region of Northern California and are looking for the best place to have corrective eye surgery, then the best option for an all laser surgery is the Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley. The center has a staff of highly qualified ophthalmologists who specialize in all types of laser-assisted and non laser-assisted surgical techniques.
