“Even with all of the information available to consumers today about LASIK, patients continue to be surprised to learn that, traditionally, there is a blade involved in the procedure. Patients are so relieved to hear about the safety and results provided by the IntraLase Method; it is no wonder that 100 percent of the LASIK procedures I perform are blade free.”
—Daniel S. Durrie

“IntraLase may provide the perfect combination of benefits we’ve been waiting for — thin flaps that heal with biomechanical strength similar to PRK and the quick visual recovery of LASIK.”
—Elizabeth A. Davis, MD, FACS

“The biggest surprise for me was that patients easily recognize how good IntraLase technology is.”
—Douglas A. Katsev, MD

“With IntraLase, you can see exactly what you are going to get — you see the cornea on the screen, you design the flap, and you control the diameter to a tenth of a millimeter; whereas creating a flap with a microkeratome is essentially a blind procedure.”
—Elizabeth A. Davis, MD, FACS

“IntraLase is a safer device than a microkeratome ... it virtually eliminates site-specific complications that are associated with using a blade. ”
—Thomas S. Tooma, MD
Medical Director TLC Laser Eye Centers of California |
 |
“As more referring optometrists learn about the benefits of IntraLase and pass this information on to their patients, more patients come to us requesting it.”
—Elizabeth A. Davis, MD, FACS

“…it was the safety and predictability that made it a clear choice. IntraLase is the logical next step in refractive surgery.”
