LASIK Surgery with the Advanced Precision of IntraLase |
 IntraLase has been used successfully on hundreds of thousands of eyes and we trust this advanced technology to deliver exceptional results. Our commitment is to provide you with the ultimate in comfort, safety, and outstanding vision.
LASIK with IntraLase can help you achieve all of this—while it delivers the added assurance of knowing you’re being treated with the most advanced technology there available.
LASIK is a two step procedure. First, a flap is painlessly created on the cornea using a laser or a mechanical device (microkeratome). Then the flap is lifted exposing the corneal bed and a second laser changes the shape of the eye to correct your vision.
The IntraLase is a first-in-class laser that creates your LASIK flap with precision that can’t be duplicated with a mechanical device (microkeratome).
Because of the superior accuracy of IntraLase, certain patients who were ineligible for LASIK may now be able to have treatment. Ask Dr. Wilmarth to review your particular situation.
Unlike mechanical instruments, IntraLase technology is uniquely able to program the dimensions of your flap based on what’s best for your eye. Then the IntraLase laser creates your flap from below the surface of the cornea—without ever cutting it. How?
Read the following points and view the video below.
- Ultra–fast pulses of laser light position microscopic bubbles at a precise depth determined by your doctor.
- The laser light passes harmlessly through your cornea. Then the laser creates rows of these bubbles just beneath
your corneal surface as it moves back and forth across your eye in a uniform plane.
- Next, the IntraLase laser stacks bubbles around your corneal
diameter to create the edges of your flap. These bubbles are
stacked at an angle that is determined by your doctor and is
individualized to the way your eye is shaped.
- The process takes only about 30 seconds from start to finish—
it’s quiet and it’s comfortable.
- Your doctor then gently lifts the flap to allow for the second step
of your LASIK treatment. When treatment is complete, the flap
easily “locks” back into position and rapidly begins to heal.

I
didn’t realize how much I was missing
until I got (Custom) LASIK done! I can finally
experience all of the little things everyone
takes for granted on a daily basis. I’m
recommending LASIK to everyone I know, and
I am thankful I decided to finally do it
and fortunate that I found Dr. Wilmarth
- it changed my life. Really.
