Dr. Mandel was a guest speaker on the iLASIK system at the AMO Innovators Forum during the annual American Academy of Ophthalmology meeting in Chicago.

iLASIK is the bladeless, all-laser technique used by Dr. Mandel for the LASIK surgery.

iLASIK is the latest technology and the only advanced all-laser procedure that NASA has approved for use on astronauts.  This technology combines the VISX Wavescan mapping technology with iris registration, the all-laser method of flap creation with the IntraLase Femtosecond (FS) Laser and the CustomVue wavefront guided vision correction procedure with the VISX excimer laser.
