All Laser LASIK

All-Laser LASIK is safe, effective, and extremely precise. The technology, developed in 2001, allows for the entire LASIK procedure to be completed by laser, eliminating the blade from the treatment. Nashua Eye uses the Intralase laser.

Crystalens for Cataracts

The Crystalens is a cataract implant that is accommodative. This unique feature provides after-cataract patients with clear distance vision without glasses, as well as a range of near vision without reading glasses.The implant best approximates the visual acuity and funtion of the young eye.

All Laser LASIK All-Laser LASIK is safe, effective, and extremely precise. The technology, developed in 2001, allows for the entire LASIK procedure to be completed by laser, eliminating the blade from the treatment.

In All-Laser LASIK, a laser is first used to create a cornea flap, allowing access for a second laser to reshape the central layer of the cornea. The first laser, sometimes referred to as a femtosecond laser, has been a critical step in the evolution of refractive surgery. Nashua Eye surgeons use a femtosecond laser called the Intralase laser. The Intralase creates a cornea flap that is remarkably precise in thickness and shape. Before femtosecond lasers, surgeons were dependent on a “microkeratome”, or automated oscillating blade, to create the cornea flap.

All-Laser LASIK has many advantages. The precision of the femtosecond laser allows the surgeon to confidently create a safe, thin cornea flap. Studies show the precise flaps minimize trace amounts of cornea distortion, allowing for excellent quality of vision. Thinner flaps allow patients who were born with thin corneas or large prescriptions to benefit from LASIK. Finally, clinical studies show that patients have fewer dry eye symptoms as the eye is healing from thin flap All-Laser LASIK.
