About the iLasik Procedure

If you wish you had better vision, you may be considering laser vision correction surgery. If that's the case, you should know about the iLASIK Procedure.

The iLASIK Procedure is safe,1 and can deliver outstanding vision quality. In fact, all branches of the U.S. military and NASA have allowed the treatment of LASIK for their servicemen and women, thanks to studies using iLASIK Technology.

The iLASIK Procedure is fast and virtually painless. This bladeless LASIK procedure uses one laser to create a flap in the cornea, and a second laser to reshape the cornea to correct vision problems.

The iLASIK Procedure is also designed to be applicable to a wide range of candidates, and it's affordable.

For more information on the iLASIK Procedure, please visit www.iLASIK.com.

Only a qualified healthcare professional can determine if the iLASIK Procedure is right for you. Go to www.iLASIK.com to locate a certified iLASIK surgeon and ask for a Patient Information Booklet and click here for a complete list of indications, precautions and warnings.
