The Femtosecond Laser replaces the blade commonly used to create the LASIK Flap. Using a computer-guided laser makes the procedure safer and more precise than the blade. All parameters of the flap can be customized for your eyes to deliver speed, accuracy, precision and improved safety. Compared to the blade, it allows your surgeon to treat a wider range of prescriptions because the depth of the flap can be customized for you.<\/p>\n
