IntraLase Enabled Keratoplasty

The IntraLase femtosecond lasers are the first in the world used to create innovative shaped corneal incisions for full-thickness corneal transplants. The ultra-fast femtosecond lasers allow the surgeon to create precisely shaped incisions that enable the tissue to fit together much like puzzle pieces do. Clinical data validate that the optimized wound architecture provides for a more stable graft that requires minimal sutures and speeds patient healing and visual recovery.⁹

• Provides a smooth corneal contour immediately following surgery
• Preserves corneal optics — less distortion
• Reduces the risk of induced astigmatism
• Promotes more rapid restoration of functional vision

IntraLase Enabled Lamellar Keratoplasty (IELK)

IELK is a safe, effective and minimally invasive technique:

• In a retrospective study of 12 consecutive eyes with anterior corneal scarring, no intraoperative complications were found¹¹
• The IntraLase FS laser empowers the surgeon to custom design incisions for individualized Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (ALK)
• Precise fit between the donor tissue and the recipient cornea results in faster, better wound healing and enables sutureless ALK¹¹

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.
