iLASIK™

Advanced Vision Correction with Wavefront Technology and Blade-free Femtosecond Lasers.

Are you seeking a Pennsylvania iLASIK surgeon?

iLasik™ is a new brand of LASIK eye surgery that has been pioneered and perfected by AMO/VISX and Intralase technology. Despite the fact that traditional LASIK has helped millions of people see without the dependence on glasses or contact lenses, LASIK was not the ideal procedure. Although most people that had traditional LASIK had no problems whatsoever, ophthalmologists and engineers were eager to enhance this vision correction procedure. With over a decade of research and clinical results, LASIK Doctors and industry experts sought a more predictable solution. iLASIK now provides this solution. By combining CustomVue wavefront technology with VISX™ Star4 active tracking capability and a blade-free femtosecond laser for an ALL-laser LASIK, we can now achieve a safer more precise result. The technology used in the iLASIK procedure has been thoroughly tested and scrutinized by doctors who overwhelmingly claim the advantages with safety and precision. It is clear now that iLASIK truly represents a technological combination unmatched in vision correction.

Because the iLASIK procedure has brought together a unique combination of technology that leads to a safer more predictable results NASA has recently approved the Intralase Method. It was not until LASIK was developed into an ALL-LASER method using a femtosecond laser for the cutting of the corneal flap that NASA considered approving LASIK for the eyes of United States Astronauts and space program candidates. The military and NASA together conducted extensive research and thus confirmed the excellent safety record of the Intralase Femtosecond laser.

The Advanced Technology of the iLASIK platform

• VISX Star 4 Excimer Laser with IRIS registration
  The VISX star4 excimer laser is one of the top excimer lasers with superior technology
• CustomVue™wavefrom technology
  Developed from hubble telecope technology wavefront expands treatment zones and helps correct higher order abberrations
• Intralase Blade-FREE laser
  Creates the LASIK flap with a laser instead of blade resulting in a safer LASIK

iLASIK Facts

• Approximately 17 million LASIK procedures have been performed to date, making it the most common elective vision procedure in the U.S. In fact, all branches of the U.S. military and NASA recently approved LASIK for their servicemen and women, thanks to studies using iLASIK technology.
  AMO/VISX
• If you are between the ages of 21 and 55 and wear glasses of contact lenses to correct myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism you may be a candidate for the iLASIK procedure

iLASIK Candidacy

If you were not a candidate for LASIK eye surgery prior to iLASIK you could possibly now be a candidate. Given the wavefront technology and bladeless mircokeratome technology additions to LASIK, the doors are now open for some previously unqualified candidates. If you were previously determined to be a LASIK candidate you will most likely also be a candidate for iLASIK. In order to determine candidacy for this procedure please set-up a consultation with a qualified iLASIK surgeon in your area. There are still some conditions that will exclude certain patients from becoming a candidate, however, if you have nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism there is a strong chance that you will be an iLASIK candidate.

Steps to iLASIK

2. Determine your candidacy with a qualified iLASIK doctor
