IntraLase FS Laser
The ultra-fast IntraLase FS laser uses an infrared light beam, generating 30,000 pulses per second, to prepare the intracorneal bed and create the corneal flap in the first step of LASIK.
- Using an "inside-out" process, the laser beam is precisely focused to a point within the cornea.
- The laser pulses then create thousands of microscopic bubbles which define the precise architecture of the intracorneal surface, as well as the distinct beveled edge of the resulting flap.
- From start to finish, the IntraLase process takes approximately 30 seconds.
