I’ve looked at things online but some testimonials seem to be biased. I always find good answers on here, please help out and tell me what you’ve heard frm friends and family. Does intralase produce 20/20 effective vision and any problems after the procedure? Are people happier w/intralse or regular lasik?
Who’s Had Lasik Or Intralase? I’m Thinking About Doing The All Laser Intralase…is This A Better Choice?

generally intralase is considered by most (all?) to be superior to regular lasik. in intralase the flap is made with a laser instead of a microkeratome (metallic form of mechanized scalpel). the result is just a more precise flap.
the rest of the procedure is the same as lasik. so the results are similar. no, i doubt intralase is SIGNIFICANTLY more likely to get you to 20/20. it just makes a smoother flap, which is probably a good thing, b/c it probably reduces the number of problems associated with a crooked or sloppy flap
My wife had LASIK. She had it done at New England Eye Center over at Tufts Medical Center. She can’t stop raving about it, said she should have had it done sooner. She now see 20/10 the doc told her. 14 months after surgery even. Since then she’s had 2 friends from work, 1 personal friend and 3 of our relatives all go into New England Eye Center and get their LASIK and they’re all doing great. I hate every one of them, I can’t get it LASIK done because my corneas are too thin apparently
