CustomCornea® WaveFront® LASIK Technology
In the past, the LASIK procedure involved reshaping your cornea based on your prescription for eyeglasses or contact lenses. Now, however, we are pleased to offer an alternative that will significantly increase your chances of achieving the refractive surgery results you desire.
At the Eye Center of Dr. Richard Meister, WaveFront® LASIK with the WaveLight® ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer Laser System helps Sacramento-area patients achieve a much higher precision of correction by customizing the laser vision procedure to address your specific visual errors. Using revolutionary wavefront analysis devices to detect how light passes through your eyes, he creates a map of your entire optical system, highlighting any imperfections that might be the source of visual distortions. This information is then programmed into the WaveLight® ALLEGRETTO WAVE®, LADARVision® 4000, or VISX STAR S4™ excimer lasers, allowing Dr. Meister to shape your cornea according to the unique wavefront map of the eye.
Because the WaveFront® ALLEGRETTO WAVE®, CustomVue™, and CustomCornea® LASIK systems allows for greater precision than previous laser vision procedures, Dr. Meister is better able to correct a wider range of visual errors, or “aberrations.” LASIK has always been effective in treating such “lower order” aberrations as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. However, the CustomCornea® system permits Dr. Meister to treat “higher order” aberrations, as well. These are the distortions that result in such annoying effects as glare, shadows, and halos.
It is important to note that, while LASIK may well improve your vision to 20/20, these higher order aberrations can remain unless specifically treated. Therefore, the custom wavefront LASIK systems are the surest, safest means of achieving the best possible results from your laser vision procedure.
