IntraLase in San Jose, California with Dr.Gary Kawesch of Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley

Everyone knows that surgery is always risky and complications may arise. But that’s no reason to accept anything less than the best that modern medicine has to offer, especially if your eyes are in the mix. IntraLase is so precise and simple that you won’t have a shred of doubt about the procedure. Dr. Gary Kawesch is the go-to eye doctor for IntraLase in the Bay Area.

IntraLase is the finest treatment available in the realm of bladeless LASIK technology. The IntraLase laser replaces the hand-held microkeratome blade used in the first step of traditional LASIK procedures to create corneal flaps. The IntraLase laser virtually eliminates most of the severe sight-threatening LASIK complications related to use of the microkeratome. It also provides unparalleled accuracy in creating a corneal surface below the flap. From start to finish, the correctional portion of the IntraLase Method typically takes only 15 to 30 seconds.

There are many instances of blade-related complications arising from traditional LASIK procedures. They usually occur in the first step of treatment when creating the flap. With IntraLase, the level of safety and accuracy is very high because the risk of such complications is eliminated.

Dr. Kawesch was among the first doctors to open a specialized clinic after the treatment was made legal. His skill and expertise has been trusted by many celebrities and athletes from all over the country. Dr. Kawesch has performed over 35,000 surgeries to date.
