Dell LASIK Austin News – LASIK Xtra – Safer?

Friday, February 10th, 2012

 

WALTHAM,
Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Avedro, Inc. announced today that the Company’s proprietary Lasik Xtra procedure has received
Canadian Approval. Lasik Xtra is a two minute procedure used in conjunction
with standard Lasik to restore biomechanical integrity and strength to the cornea after a standard
Lasik procedure. The procedure combines riboflavin ophthalmic solution with Avedro’s KXL™ System (UVA
irradiation) to achieve accelerated corneal cross-linking during a Lasik procedure.

This procedure should provide enhanced safety for LASIK patients in Austin, Texas. This procedure will also likely allow many patients
to have LASIK who were previously not eligible.
