IntraLase: We’re First in North Florida
to Offer
Blade-free LASIK…
Come Follow the Leader.
 Dr.
Schnipper was the seventh person in the world to perform modern
cataract surgery (phacoemulsification), the first in North Florida
to do cataract surgery with the insertion of an intraocular lens
implant, and the first in North Florida to perform Radial Keratotomy
for the correction of nearsightedness. He now continues his pioneering
techniques by being the first in Florida to offer
completely blade-free LASIK (laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis).
Safer…Faster…Better.
 Dr.
Schnipper exclusively uses the space-age IntraLase laser to create
the flap in the cornea that enables him to access and reshape
the eye to improve your vision. IntraLase is better than the traditional
microkeratome razor-like tool because it uses highly calibrated
technology, which directs a concentrated, high-speed laser beam
into a tiny spot of energy—providing unprecedented precision,
safety and accuracy.
An
Eye on the Future.
When
IntraLase is combined with the Allegretto
Wave laser, your LASIK surgery becomes totally blade-free,
and your result is more accurate and the procedure is safer. Few
eye care professionals chose to invest in this dual technology,
but Dr. Schnipper understood immediately its impact:
- Safety:
Precise corneal flap with flexibility to adjust flap parameters
for each patient’s eyes.
- Quality
of Vision: Wavefront optimization customizes each patient’s
treatment to their specific corneal curvature, reducing or
eliminating night glare and halos.
- Performance:
The Allegretto Wave is the fastest
excimer laser in the country: significantly reducing treatment
time, with much more predictable outcomes.
As
a leader in the field, Dr. Schnipper knows the technology and
procedures are always changing, increasing the potential to improve
his patients’ lives. All-laser LASIK is a genuine breakthrough,
and you can experience the future now at the Jacksonville Eye
Center.
