IntraLase® in New Jersey
Dr. Miller and Dr. Mendelson are among a select group of surgeons in New Jersey trained in utilizing the newest all-laser, completely blade-free, lntralase® technology.
Also referred to as "lntraLASIK" and iFS, this FemtoSecond laser technology rapidly creates an ultra precise flap in the corneal tissue and eliminates the need for any cutting or use of a blade. This is the first step in the iLASIK custom laser vision correction procedure.
The surgeon then gently lifts the flap back, and another ultra-precise laser corrects patients' visual imperfections, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
The surgeon then gently places the flap back over the treated area. The flap serves as a natural bandage for the eye, making the recovery process comfortable and reducing recovery time. The use of this technology has drastically reduced the risk of issues that previously resulted from the use of a microkeratome blade, including difficulty with night vision.
Not only is the technology safe, but it is also fast! While treatment time can vary slightly based on one's prescription strength, most patients are in and out of the LASIK procedure in less than 30 minutes!
