Custom wavefront LASIK is a refined version of traditional LASIK surgery that uses advanced diagnostic technology to map the unique imperfections of the patient's eye. By creating a custom map of the cornea, wavefront LASIK enables the surgeon to tailor the laser treatment more precisely, improving the quality of vision and reducing the risk of post-surgery side effects.
The procedure involves reshaping the cornea using a laser based on the detailed measurements from the wavefront analysis, improving both clarity and sharpness of vision.
Custom wavefront LASIK can offer superior outcomes compared to traditional LASIK, particularly for patients with complex vision problems or higher degrees of refractive error.
