What is IntraLase

What is IntraLase?

IntraLase – the Revolutionary, No-Blade Vision Correction System

IntraLase is a new, state-of-the-art laser eye treatment that is helping patients to see clearly again without the need for contact lenses or glasses. This revolutionary treatment is just one of many that we offer here at Optilase. We would be delighted to tell you more and to arrange a free consultation at your convenience. 

Our world-class surgeons have carried out thousands of procedures, so you can rest assured that you are in safe hands. We use an innovative, “no-blade” procedure that produces cleaner and more accurate results than many other LASIK techniques. If you have always wanted to experience clear vision upon waking, IntraLase is the perfect solution.

Exceptional Vision Correction for An Affordable Price

IntraLase is the most advanced and accurate way to create the flap required during the LASIK procedure. We use what is known as Femtosecond (quadrillionth of a second) laser pulses to create the flap. This is one of the safest and most successful methods of laser eye surgery and one that delivers exceptional correction to a patient’s vision.
1
With IntraLase, tiny pulses of laser light, a quadrillionth of a second each, pass harmlessly through the outer portion of your cornea and form a uniform layer of microscopic bubbles just beneath the surface of your eye.
2
The exact dimensions of this layer of bubbles are determined by your surgeon based on what’s best for your eye, and are computer controlled for maximum precision. The IntraLase flap creation process takes about 15 to 20 seconds per eye and a total of 10 minutes for the entire LASIK procedure.
3
When it’s time for your LASIK procedure to be performed, your surgeon easily lifts the flap to apply the LASIK procedure. When LASIK is complete, a flap created using IntraLase is able to “lock” back into place. Your eye then begins to heal rapidly.

Benefits of the IntraLase Method

IntraLase can improve precision and visual results of LASIK, whether you choose to have a standard or CustomVue procedure
In general, laser eye surgery has a very low complication rate – and the IntraLase reduces the possibility for complications even further
IntraLase enables complete tailoring of the corneal flap for the needs of every patient, and for each individual eye (all eyes are different)
With IntraLase the recovery rates are excellent, because the flap fits so neatly back into place
IntraLase is of particular benefit to patients with steep, flat or thin corneas, who wouldn’t be eligible for surgery using a standard microkeratome (older technique using a blade to create the flap)

I had LASIK done in Dublin after a consultation and follow up in Derry. From the very start, Elizabeth in Derry put me at ease with her approach. Such a warm, helpful way about her. Surgeon Mikhall Hernandez took the time to meet me in advance to explain the process. All the staff- Iwona, Julie, Jess, Robbie (from Donegal!) and Rachael, I really appreciated the way they supported me from start to finish

I had a great LASIK experience at Optilase Carrickmines and couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr. Tom Materman is incredibly kind, attentive, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him, as well as the whole Optilase team! I didn’t feel anything during the procedure, which was much easier than I expected. My recovery has also been going really well—I’m only on day two, and everything has been smooth so far. Thank you to everyone at Optilase for the excellent care!

Life changing. From the initial consultation to the aftercare, Optilase have been friendly, professional and caring every step of the way. No worry or concern was too small for a detailed discussion and helpful response. 3 months after my phakic lens surgery my vision is as good as it ever was with glasses without the hassle. Would recommend the Optilase Carrickmines team to anyone.
