LASIK with IntraLase Europe

The FemtoLASIK method is a superb modern technology of removal dioptres using two latest lasers: femtosecond laser iFS and excimer laser VISX STAR S4 IR, both from Johnson & Johnson, an American company. The ultra-fast femtosecond laser is used (using the principle of photo-disruption) to create a thin lamella on the cornea. The Laser beam is focused into one single point where energy is concentrated, and the tissue of the cornea immediately turns to gas (it literally evaporates). The lamella created in this way is more perfect and smoother than when an oscillating blade is used. The lamella in the cornea is then lifted to the side and using the effect of the excimer laser, the cornea is re-shaped into the required shape and curvature as a result of which the dioptre error is corrected. Once done, the lamella of the cornea is returned to its original position and the surgery is completed. We recommend this method specifically to patients with the following: Short-sightedness (lower, medium as well as higher)Far-sightedness (from +4,0 dioptres on)Relatively symmetrical astigmatism (up to +/−4,5 dioptres max.)Uncomplicated refractive error without significant asymmetry

IDESIGN iLASIK is the safest and most precise laser eye surgery method used for the removal of short-sightedness, far-sightedness and astigmatism. It uses technology certified by NASA, meaning that it complies with the strictest safety criteria. iDESIGN iLASIK uses advanced and tested technology throughout the procedure and as such ensures a 100% tailor-made procedure. It is this individualisation, in particular, that differentiates this method. During the initial examination, part of which is the iDESIGN device, we immediately, in a single instant, acquire complex results of the five basic parameters of the eye. This data is as unique as a fingerprint. Based on these results, we are in a position to propose a tailor-made and transfer this plan into the memory of the VISX STAR S4 I laser. The laser then carries out the required changes to the curvature of the cornea with absolute precision. The surgery is carried out under local anaesthesia applied through eye drops. Throughout the surgery, the patient is fully conscious, however, registers no pain. The entire procedure lasts only a few minutes. The recuperation is very quick and the return to improved vision functions is fast. Who is this method meant for? Especially patients suffering from one of the following: Short-sightedness (low, medium and high)Far-sightedness (up to +4,0 dioptres)Astigmatism (maxim up to +/−4,5 dioptres)A higher degree of irregular astigmatismIn cases where the required post-surgery vision exceeds 100%

ICRS may be used in the treatment of short-sightedness (from −1.00 to −3.00 dioptres) in patients with keratoconus and with ecstasy after refractive laser procedures. Indication for ICRS implantation is the transparency of the central part of the cornea and intolerance to wearing contact lenses. The first step is the plan of the procedure. A thorough analysis of the patient’s data acquired in the initial examination at the corneal advisory centre is carried out. An optimal type of ICRS is determined (shape, curvature and thickness of the segment, how many degrees of the circular segment, one or two segments) so that optimal post-surgery results may be achieved.
