Is LASIK Safe?Ask Eye Surgeon

ABOUT LASIK
  • David Robinson Ophthalmologist said LASIK has
    been around for over 30 years now, and has become
    the worlds favourite laser vision correction
    procedure. But is it safe? This post looks at how
    the femtosecond laser has transformed the safety
    profile of this procedure.

2 Steps to Get Rid of Your Glasses
  • LASIK is and always has been a 2-step procedure
  • First, a thin flap of tissue is created
    using a laser or microkeratome
  • Secondly, a special kind of cool laser
    (called an excimer laser) reshapes the underlying
    cornea and corrects your spectacle error.

4
Microkeratome thats a blade, right?
  • The characteristics of working with a blade meant
    that the centre of the flap could vary in
    thickness. The surgeon wouldnt know exactly how
    much tissue they had to work with until the flap
    was created or how much short-sightedness could
    be treated. The profile of the flap edge also
    allowed cells from the outside of the cornea to
    grow under the edge.

5
Blade-free LASIK
  • Blade-free approach was that the surgeon knew
    exactly how thick the flap was going to be, with
    no wastage of tissue. This translates to being
    able to safely correct higher levels of myopia,
    as more tissue is available.
