The iFS Femtosecond Laser System takes refractive surgery — and more specifically, LASIK flap creation — to a whole new standard of speed and control. It's designed to deliver biomechanically engineered flaps that can be customized for every individual cornea, and includes comprehensive IntraLase Enabled Keratoplasty (IEK) and ring-channel formation capabilities.
The Flap
- Unprecedented speed — virtually effortless flap lift
- Lower energy; may reduce tissue response and inflammation
Significantly Smoother Stromal Beds
- IntraLase technology results in significantly higher-quality stromal beds than are possible with the FEMTO LDV™1
Inverted Bevel-In Side Cut
- Promotes flap stability and positioning2,3
Elliptical Flap Enhances Surgical Options
- Distributes forces symmetrically to the elliptical cornea
- Moves the hinge peripherally to maximize stromal bed exposure for full delivery of excimer ablation
New Dimension In Surgical Ergonomics
- Contemporary, compact exterior complements and enhances the iLASIK patient experience
- Video microscope features touch-screen magnification function
Laser assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) can only be performed by a trained physician and is specified for reduction or elimination of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism as indicated within the product labeling. Laser refractive surgery is contraindicated for patients: a) with collagen vascular, autoimmune, or immunodeficiency diseases; b) who are pregnant or nursing women; c) with signs of keratoconus or abnormal corneal topography; d) who are taking one or both of the following medications: Isotretinoin (Accutane) and Amiodarone hydrochloride (Cordarone). Potential side effects to laser refractive surgery may include glare, dry eye, as well as other visual anomalies. LASIK requires the use of a microkeratome that cuts a flap on the surface of the cornea, potential side effects may include flap related complications. Consult with your eye care professional and Patient Information Booklet regarding the potential risks and benefits for laser refractive surgery, results may vary for each individual patient.
