Better Lasik
is in Sight
Wavefront-guided Lasik dramatically reduces
complications and yield more precise correction
Los Angeles

"New technique,
known as wavefront-guided laser eye surgery,
reduces the most commmon side effects of standard
laser procedures, including blurry night vision,
offers higher chances of achieving 20/20 vision
or better" December
13-15, 2002 - The Asian Wall Street Journal.
Conventional LASIK surgery
can provide excellent results in correcting
a wide range of common
vision problems like nearsightedness,
farsightedness and astigmatism. These vision
problems are known as lower order aberrations.
CustomCornea®
is a new kind of LASIK procedure which takes
a similar approach and can help with many
of the same visual problems. There are two
reasons CustomCornea®
is different. CustomCornea®
is the first laser vision correction procedure
to go beyond reshaping your cornea based on
your prescription for eyeglasses or contacts.
The procedure is completely customized to
your eyes and your eyes alone. Secondly, CustomCornea®
can help with other vision problems that could
not be detected previously, known as higher
order aberrations. Experts believe these
aberrations can be responsible for vision
problems like glare and halos in low-light
conditions and at night.
Higher order aberrations cannot
be treated by Conventional
laser vision correction procedures, or even
by wearing glasses or contacts. CustomCornea®
is the first and only laser vision correction
procedure that's FDA approved to address higher
order aberrations.
How CustomCornea®
Works
There are three steps to every CustomCornea®
procedure; Capture,
Match and Treat.
Capture
In this first step, the LADARWave™ wavefront
device is used to capture your eyes' unique
combination of higher and lower aberrations.
The device creates a wavefront map of each eye
by shining an eye-safe beam of laser light into
the eye and measuring the reflected light waves
as they pass through your visual system and
exit the eye.
Match
In this second stage, a wavefront map for each
eye is input to the laser system, and converted
to a guide for the laser. When both patient
and doctor are ready for surgery to begin, the
map is computer-matched with the eye's exact
position so the treatment is extremely precise.
Since each eye has its own unique wavefront
map, treatment with CustomCornea®
is truly customized.
Treat
In this third step, the cornea is precisely
reshaped using the LADARVision®
4000 excimer laser, guided by the data from
the wavefront map. The treatment is designed
to correct your unique profile of both lower
and higher order aberrations at the same
time.

If you're interested in a CustomCornea®
procedure, it's important to understand why
technology matters in choosing
your doctor. While many surgeons with
many different systems claim to provide customized
laser vision correction, only one system is
FDA approved and has all the elements needed
to deliver on this promise: The
LADARVision® System
from Alcon Laboratories.

visual outcomes were better with the LADAR
Vision . My re-treatment rates with the LADAR

"I
have done over 7,500 LADARvision procedures
without complaint of glare or halos. This
benefit in night vision halos. This benefit
in night vision I attribute to the precision
of the LADARtracker and the use of an optical
zone which is larger than the scotopic pupil
size."
