How Does Bladeless LASIK Procedure Work
As mentioned already above, Bladeless LASIK, otherwise known as INTRALASE, eliminates the use of the hand-held blade to create the corneal flap. Instead, the procedure relies on the Intralase laser improving safety and precision in the process. As a result, even those patients can become good candidates of INTRALASE who couldn’t have been in the case of traditional LASIK.
