At The Eye Clinic of North Dakota, our ophthalmologists are dedicated to delivering state-of-the-art vision correction treatments and providing outstanding patient care to help patients achieve the clearest vision possible. In addition to conventional LASIK and Custom LASIK, we are proud to offer the IntraLASIK procedure using the IntraLase® laser for a completely blade-free LASIK vision correction experience.
IntraLASIK is the new, 100 percent blade-free approach to conventional LASIK vision correction surgery. During conventional LASIK surgery, a microkeratome blade is used to create a corneal flap. However, during the IntraLASIK procedure, the microkeratome blade is replaced with the sophisticated IntraLase® laser. IntraLASIK allows patients who wish to receive LASIK treatment but who have fears of "going under the blade" the chance to have an all-laser LASIK experience.
The IntraLase® laser is a revolutionary tool that has successfully helped more than one million people see their world more clearly since its approval by the FDA in 2001. Its micron-level accuracy delivers more precise results, which is critical to a successful LASIK procedure. The computer-guided IntraLase® laser takes the guesswork out of the LASIK procedure by creating a corneal flap that is 100 times more accurate and consistent, instead of the uneven flaps and abnormal corneal surfaces that can be created by the microkeratome blade. Because of this, laser eye surgery becomes safer and better customized to each patient, enabling our surgeons to maintain complete control during the procedure.
During the IntraLASIK procedure, the computer-controlled IntraLase® laser is used to create a precise corneal flap as well as an optimally-prepared corneal bed for excimer laser vision correction. The flap is created through an "inside-out" process: the laser beam is directed to a point within the cornea where it creates thousands of microscopic bubbles that link together to create a flap of exact diameter, depth, shape, and hinge location. The IntraLase Method™ takes approximately 30 seconds. Once the flap is created, our surgeon uses the excimer laser to reshape the cornea. Finally, the flap is replaced and bonds on its own in a matter of seconds. Patients are able to see a marked improvement in vision almost immediately after surgery.
Advanced IntraLASIK surgery is an exceptional procedure that can help you achieve the clearest vision possible.

We offer a variety of financing options to help make our revolutionary vision correction treatments more affordable.
