Blade-free ILasik - Maine Wellness Guide

,
&
blade-free iLasik
Relax, because now instead of older
LASIK technology that uses a blade, you
can have the new iLASIK, a completely
blade-free, exceptionally advanced
procedure that has been shown to
improve outcome for more patients.1
How is this possible?
Only with iLASIK,
the Intralase "all laser" method.
Ask us if it’s right for you.
iLASIK is the result of over a decade of
technical refinement; it combines the most
refined, all-laser LASIK technology in one
advanced procedure.* Dr. Curtis Libby is the
only experienced surgeon north of the
Boston region that uses iLASIK, the
blade-free method, and is located here at
Maine Eye Center in Portland!
