WHY BLADELESS LASIK TREATMENT?

The traditional method of creating a corneal "flap" is to use a motorized instrument called a "keratome", which uses a blade that oscillates at high speed. Several clinics still use this technology, even though it has some additional risks.

Laservue considers "bladeless" LASIK a superior technique for the reasons explained below. For these reasons LASIK with a blade is no longer used at Laservue.

In "Bladeless LASIK" the "flap" is created by a "femtosecond" laser which delivers thousands to millions of pulses per second to a precise depth in the cornea. The incision is more precise. The advantages include increased safety with a softer treatment, a smoother incision, and a flap that is more solid. This often results in a better vision after LASIK surgery.
