Tailor-made vision is now possible with iLASIK. Approved by the FDA in May 2008 for use in vision correction surgery, iLASIK was introduced by Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. in Santa Ana, California. It uses the FS femtosecond laser to increase speed and offer the safety of bladeless surgery with the accuracy of a custom fit procedure.
With unmatched customization and precision, iLASIK addresses the uniqueness of the eyes and makes it possible to treat a broad spectrum of refractive errors. The iLASIK procedure leverages the combination of wavefront technology with blade-free flap creation. Offering a customization from start to finish, iLASIK technologies include:
IntraLase Femtosecond Laser
VISX Iris Registration Technology
VISX Wavescan WaveFront Diagnostics
VISX Star S4 Iris Registration Excimer Laser
VISX Advanced CustomVue Treatment
Three Steps of the iLASIK Procedure
Wavescan 3D mapping creates a blueprint of your eye and accurately aligns the Wavefront treatment by the Iris Registration reading the specific characteristics of your eye.
IntraLase FS laser creates an optimal surface beneath the flap to allow better visual outcomes.
3D eye tracking ensures that your treatment remains exact and specific to your eyes, even if your eyes happen to move during surgery.
iLASIK Treats a Wide Variety of Refractive Errors
With its extremely high success rates, eye surgeons use iLASIK to treat a broad spectrum of refractive vision errors. People that may find this vision correction surgery perfect for their needs include:
Those experiencing hyperopia four times as many iLASIK patients were satisfied with their vision outcomes compared to their vision before the operation with glasses and contact lenses.
Patients with low to moderate myopia clinical studies demonstrated that 100 percent of patients treated with iLASIK could pass a driving test without contact lenses or eyeglasses and 98 percent had 20/20 vision a year after surgery.
Individuals with high myopia just 2.2 percent of eyes in the high myopia clinical trial needed retreatment.
