Promises Kept
After being touted as revolutionary, Intralase SBK meets expectations.

Two full years since its integration as a Standard of Care at Focus, Intralase SBK is delivering on its promises. Outcomes routinely achieved by the first week with Intralase SBK match those results achieved with PRK at the three to six month mark; reduced healing time; and a level of visual acuity that normally exceeds what patients ever had with glasses or contacts, with many seeing better than 20/20 post-surgery.

In Canada, Focus has been one of the leading LVC centres offering SBK,” says Dr. Angela Malik, an OD at Focus Eye Centre with over 15 years experience working in the field of LVC. “Ten years ago, laser eye surgery was synonymous with PRK and Lasik, but at present Intralase SBK is becoming the procedure of choice.”

“The trend in LVC has definitely shifted and the technology been refined to the point where patients are achieving excellent surgical outcomes in minimal periods of time,” adds Dr. Malik. “Patients who had otherwise been avoiding having LVC because of lengthy recovery times or expected discomfort, are now excited by the new technology.”

Intralase SBK patients often see significant results after a much shorter recovery time than with a standard PRK or Lasik procedures.

That said, everyone’s healing process is unique.

“We always caution that healing is an individual matter and that while some people are back to work and sometimes even driving the day after surgery, recovery can take longer with some people,” explains Focus Medical Director, Dr. David Edmison. “We believe that patients need to have reasonable expectations heading into any procedure.”

When expectations are met — whether it is in terms of healing or crispness of vision — it highlights that Intralase SBK is a safe and effective option that represents a true step forward in patient experience while achieving excellent outcomes.
