When the operative field is numb, the doctor will use an automated microsurgical instrument called a microkeratome.Malpractice Medical
This tiny instrument will carefully create a thin corneal flap …
which remains hinged to the eye.
Underneath this flap the inner layer of the cornea, called the stroma, is exposed.
Next, your doctor will use a computer to control pulses of cool laser light. These pulses will delicately remove microscopically thin layers of cells from the stroma, Malpractice Medical
By removing tissue in this manner, your doctor will tailor the new shape of your cornea according to the exact nature of your vision problem. The entire procedure usually takes about 5 minutes and is painless.
The corneal flap is then closed and the surface is rinsed.
Following surgery, you’ll be given protective contact lenses to wear for a few days while the corneal flap heals.

Myopia(nearsightedness)is the inability to clearly see from a distance. Refractive surgery or LASIK can correct this refractive error by re-sculpting the cornea, flattening it so that light can focus on the retina accurately and without disruption.

The all-laser no-blade LASIK procedure done on me July 16, 2009. Specifically, this procedure would be considered SBK (sub-Bowman’s keratomileusis), meaning the corneal flaps are ultra-thin – 100 microns or less.

My glasses and contacts before surgery had corrections of -7 to -8 diopters, so I was very nearsighted.

Video begins after the IntraLase laser has created the corneal flaps on both eyes. You will see Dr. Kraff first lifting the laser-cut corneal flaps, and then the vision correction treatment with the VISX Star S4 laser.

My post-operative vision has been excellent – 20/15 or better in both eyes with no complications whatsoever.
