April 21, 2006, Newsletter Issue #12: Benefits of Intralase

Tip of the Week

While Intralase isn't right for everyone, the blade-free lasik vision correction surgery can produce real benefits for some patients. They include:



-- Decreased risk of flap complications.



-- Decreased incidence of postoperative dry eye



-- Unlike other alternatives to LASIK, it preserves many of the benefits of LASIK including a short and largely pain-free recovery.



-- More accurate outcomes in terms of patients' postoperative vision.



-- Benefits of vision correction surgery are available to those who might have previously been poor candidates.



-- Less pressure on the eye during the surgery.



-- Reduced incidence of patients needing a second operation to correct their vision.



-- Flaps created with a laser are less likely to become dislodged later.
