ABOUT LASIK
Imagine waking up and seeing clearly without having to reach for your glasses or contact lenses Laser Assisted Stromal Insitu Keratomileusis LASIK is making this dream a reality for millions of people worldwide

To make an informed decision we would like you to read the following information while considering this procedure

Standard LASIK and Wavefrontguided Customized LASIK
Conventional Standard LASIK

For those having only lower order aberrations ie Refractive errors of the cornea alone like myopia hypermetropia and astigmatism which can be effectively treated by spectacles contact lenses or conventional LASIK procedures

LASIK is a method of reshaping the external surface of the eye the cornea to correct low moderate and high degrees of nearsightedness astigmatism and farsightedness

Standard LASIK achieves very good results in most patients However wavefrontguided LASIK offers a customized treatment for each eye Wavefrontguided LASIK involves correcting not only the refractive error of the eyes as in standard LASIK but also the internal optical imperfections of the eye A 3D map of the eye called a waveprint is formed which is also treated with the laser Wavefront procedures often leave patients with eyesight better than normal

In certain cases Standard LASIK treatments could lead to an increase in the magnitude of higher order aberrations such as those discussed above Unpredictable results may occur more so in treatments with lasers that are not technologically advanced Hence it is very important to screen the right candidate for Standard LASIK

Wavefrontguided procedures help avoid a number of side effects like glare and poor night vision since they remove higherorder errors of the eye abbrerations that regular LASIK based solely on the glasses prescription often misses

The highly advanced WaveLight 500 Hz Concerto Laser uses a quotFlying spotquot of 09 mm which is necessary for accurate placement of laser treatment particularly for customized treatments

The laser has a highspeed eye tracker to track very fine eye movements that the naked eye cannot see

The WaveLight 500 Hz Concerto Laser has the fastest eyetracker and treatment time worldwide so that the treatment is completed before the treatment surface unevenly dries out avoiding post procedure visual irregularities
