Blade Free LASIK

LASIK surgery has advanced to the point where corrective eye surgery has developed to fit the personal makeup of the eye and the corneal tissue. More than ever, LASIK surgery can be customized for the individual and provide results that are better than ever.

Traditional LASIK surgery is performed by making a cut using a metal blade called a microkeratome, but today the LASIK blade free method allows much more control over the flap itself. This flap, cut into the top layer of the cornea to access the inner tissue for reshaping purposes, can create impressive results and improve the vision drastically. People who have steep, thin or flat corneas will be pleased that their eye surgeon can perform blade free LASIK surgery to tailor this flap and decrease the chance of complications.

Some Background on Blade Free LASIK Surgery

This blade free LASIK method dispenses of all sharp blades and instruments that were previously used for conventional LASIK procedures. The corneal flap is "cut" using pulses of light. Before the eye surgery, the doctor lifts the flap and exposes the cornea so it can be reshaped. This blade free LASIK or all laser technique uses a much more sophisticated approach to eye surgery.
