Better Vision For Generation "i"

The iLASIK Procedure (using exclusive LASIK technology, only from AMO) is designed just for you and your generation.

Generation Y ... You're Not Too Young!

"I want it all — on my terms. I wanted to lose my contacts, and I had heard about LASIK, but no one seemed to be talking to me … Now someone is finally speaking my language, and I’m having the LASIK procedure that's tailor-made for my generation."

When you're young, you rarely think about health procedures. But if you wear glasses or contacts, now’s the time to think about laser vision correction surgery. You’re not too young, and with your active lifestyle, why settle for anything but perfect vision?*

The iLASIK Procedure is approved for patients 21 years and older and hundreds of patients in your age group are having LASIK every day.

*Outcomes may vary. Ninety-eight percent of mildly to moderately nearsighted patients participating in the CustomVue Clinical Trials submitted to the FDA could see 20/20 or better one year after treatment.

Generation X — Your Wait Is Over!

"I want better vision, but not if it means getting in an assembly line. I was looking for a reason — a personal reason — to consider having LASIK right now... Individualized treatment is the reason that works for me and my generation."

You grew up in what could easily be called the "LASIK generation." You've heard all of the buzz — quite possibly you've been confused by it — and you've decided to wait.

The iLASIK Procedure is the result of a decade's worth of technical refinement; it combines all of the most advanced all-laser LASIK technology in one efficient LASIK procedure ... It simply doesn't get any better, so now's the time.

Baby Boomers — Great Vision Never Gets Old!

"I'd like to have the vision of my youth, but at what price? I wanted to know if LASIK is really safe? Is it worthwhile for someone my age? I'm here because the answers are "yes" and that means LASIK is finally ready for my generation."

Millions of Baby Boomers are searching for the formula for aging gracefully, yet they are still reaching for reading glasses. Glasses or contacts don’t have to be standard operating equipment for growing older.

The introduction of the iLASIK Procedure means you need to take a second look at laser vision correction surgery, here's why:

It's Never Been Safer ... 31.4 million laser vision correction procedures have been performed worldwide to date,1 making it the most common elective vision correction procedure in the U.S.; LASIK has never been safer, and the iLASIK Procedure has an outstanding safety profile.2
