Dr. Matt knows that each person's visual system is unique, and therefore, it's important that a truly customized approach is taken to laser vision correction. Wavefront guided LASIK, recently approved by the FDA, is a laser vision correction procedure that uses the unique visual characteristics of your eye to customize your treatment.
Custom LASIK uses a device called a wavefront analyzer to measure the way light travels through your eye and compare it to the way light travels through an eye with perfect vision.
This device then creates a 3-D wavefront map that is programmed into the laser to cusomize the LASIK procedure to your individual vision requirements.
Abnormalities in your eye that create halos and glare may now be corrected with Cusom LASIK. Previously, these distortions were untreatable with glasses, contacts, or Conventional LASIK.
Custom LASIK focuses on the quality of vision, not just the quantity. 20/20 has traditionally been measured by a letter chart. It didn't matter how those letters looked to you, it just mattered that you could read them. But now Custom LASIK may make those letters appear crisp and clear.
