Laser Corneal Transplantation

Corneal transplantation can now be done by laser. IntraLase Enabled Keratoplasty (IEK) is a new revolutionary way of performing full thickness corneal transplantation procedure. The IntraLase laser is used to replace the diseased cornea in a precise fashion thus reducing postoperative astigmatism and corneal surface irregularity speeding up the visual rehabilitation. The IntraLase laser procedure also reduces the need for stitches which in turn makes recovery both easier and faster.
