CustomVue LASIK with Wavefront Technology

Wavefront technology allows us to customize your LASIK treatment specifically for your eyes. Although millions of eyes may have the same refraction (glasses prescription), no two eyes will have the same wavefront pattern. Your unique wavefront pattern is programmed into the VISX Star S4 Excimer Laser, allowing customized LASIK treatment specific to your eye, increasing the precision and accuracy of LASIK.

Wavefront technology generates a computerized, 3-dimensional measurement of your eye. (We take a "picture" of your eye. You don't feel anything.) Wavefront measurements are 25 times more precise than previous measurement systems and can treat corneal imperfections that glasses or contacts cannot correct. This improves the quality of your vision after LASIK, especially at night.

Additionally, the VISX wavefront technology also includes "iris registration", which accurately determines the rotational orientation of the Laser Treatment for correcting your astigmatism. No other FDA Excimer Laser has this technology. Other Lasers have "auto-trackers" that orient the Laser in the x,y and z directions (i.e. left, right and up/down) but the VISX auto-tracking system with iris-registration also determines precise rotational (clockwise/counterclockwise) orientation. Iris registration, which is only available on the VISX Laser system, provides a significantly increased precision for treating your astigmatism.
