What is iLASIK?

Nevada Eye Consultants Chris Dushek iLASIK Procedure

Surely you've heard the phrase "20/20 vision." This term has come to be known as the standard for "good" vision; it's the baseline. It means that you see at 20 feet what a person without any vision problems would see at 20 feet. If your vision was 20/40, it means that you can see an object 20 feet away, but a person without any vision problem would be able to see the same object if he/she is 40 feet away. In short, the higher the second number the worse your vision is, and the lower the second number the better your vision is. You need to be at least 20/40 in order to drive, while fighter pilots are often 20/15.

To correct your vision with the iLASIK Procedure, a thin corneal flap needs to be created. There are two ways to make this flap: a blade or the IntraLase FS laser. The iLASIK Procedure EXCLUSIVELY uses the IntraLase Laser; it's part of what makes iLASIK vision correction unique. Eighty-one percent of patients choose bladeless LASIK over traditional LASIK with a blade when given the choice.

You have a choice: you want the laser, YOU WANT THE iLASIK PROCEDURE.
