Custom LASIK is a procedure that involves the use of wavefront analyzer which helps the surgeon to customize the conventional LASIK procedure to every individual eye. Customized procedure enables a person to see clearer and sharper then ever before.
Custom LASIK uses an equipment called the wavefront analyzer (aberrometer) to accurately measure the way light travels through the eye. The resulting map of the eye is then programmed into the laser, which then treats the eye based on the personalized 3D map. Custom LASIK helps to treat “higher order” aberrations, which are tiny imperfections in the optical system of the eye. They have a significant impact on the quality of vision. In fact, higher order aberrations are untreatable with contact lenses, glasses or conventional LASIK.
The procedure for both custom LASIK and Conventional LASIK is the same but the pre assessment tests differ greatly. The wavefront analyzer used with custom LASIK brings a whole new level of knowledge and accuracy for the surgeon to perform this advanced procedure. This treatment has a significant impact on quality of vision and eliminates the problem of glare and halos at night. Topography, Aberrometry and Pachymetry are pre-operative tests required.
