At TLC, we stand behind your vision results for life because we have confidence in our surgeons and in the stability of our patients' long term results. Our intention is to help you maintain the best possible vision throughout your life.
We call it the TLC Lifetime Commitment. The primary benefit of the program is TLC's assurance that if an enhancement is needed to maintain vision results, clinically qualified participating patients will receive a same technology enhancement procedure without charge at any TLC Laser Eye Centers location across North America.
Bladeless LASIK
LASIK surgery may be elective, but good vision is not. We understand how valuable your sight is to you, and we keep our sights set on providing safe and advanced technologies for our patients. That is why Bladeless LASIK using the IntraLase® laser is a technology chosen for our Centers.
What is Bladeless LASIK?
In the LASIK and CustomLASIK procedures, a flap of corneal tissue must be created and then folded back. The cornea is the transparent dome-like structure that covers the iris and pupil of your eye. By creating a flap in the cornea, the surgeon is able to perform the laser vision correction treatment on the inner layer of the cornea and allows for a rapid visual recovery.
With Bladeless LASIK, the surgeon uses a laser to create the corneal flap. This technology enables the surgeon the ability to customize the corneal flap for every individual patient. In recent studies done by IntraLase, this technology may now make it possible to treat those who were previously dismissed as non candidates due to thin corneas.
The Procedure
Our doctors can offer customization for you in all parts of the procedure: custom diagnosis (before the procedure), custom flap (Bladeless LASIK), and custom treatment (to complete the procedure).
Confidence in your Decision
As with all technologies that TLC uses, please consult your local TLC Laser Eye Centers® location for guidance. A comprehensive consultation will determine what is the best treatment for you.
* Studies have shown the incidence of dry eye symptoms may be reduced with Bladeless LASIK.
* With Bladeless LASIK and its customization components, surgeons can treat a wider variety of patients, including patients with thin corneas.
* Bladeless LASIK has been used in more than one million LASIK procedures worldwide.
