Please read on to learn more about flap creation with iFS femtosecond laser in Toronto.

iFS Difference
Bochner Eye Institute's surgeons use the iFS femtosecond laser to create biomechanically engineered flaps that are precisely customized for the patient's corneas. The iFS platform integrates many sophisticated measurement and control systems that enhance the safety and precision of the corneal flap creation procedure. In addition, the iFS femtosecond laser operates at a very high speed, exposing the cornea to a smaller amount of laser energy. As a result, the risk of inflammation following LASIK eye surgery is greatly reduced.

iFS in Toronto
Prior to performing any laser eye surgery procedure, the highly skilled surgeons of Bochner Eye Institute perform a set of evaluations and examinations. They assess patients' overall health, refractive errors and vision correction needs. In addition, they thoroughly evaluate the eyes for any signs of disease that might prevent patients from undergoing LASIK. The surgeons then explain each patient's laser eye surgery options, including a discussion of whether or not he or she is a candidate for iFS flap creation.

Toronto iFS patients' corneas are carefully measured with special instruments to ensure a highly targeted application of laser energy. After the eyes have been prepared, the iFS laser administers extremely fast pulses of energy, creating a smooth, thin corneal flap. The procedure is completed in seconds and does not produce any significant discomfort. Then, the corneal flap is lifted and a different laser is used to reshape the underlying corneal tissues. Once replaced in its original position, the flap serves as a natural bandage.
