What Can Lasik Eye Surgery Do For Me?

We use the System at the Beverly Hills LASIK Center

, a Wavefront LASIK eye surgery method that is both a diagnostic approach and a treatment that allows our doctors to take detailed measurement of a patient's eyes -- similar to a fingerprint -- so they can provide personalized and precise vision correction. In the system's diagnostic phase, a device called the WaveScan makes a WavePrint Map, which is a detailed map of a patient's vision. In the treatment phase, the doctor uses the information from the WavePrint Map to perform the vision correction.

Eye corrections of this size require the use of the VISX 3D Active Trak laser, a laser specifically designed to track the minute movements of the eye during laser treatment. With this laser, our doctors are able to prevent any slight errors that might develop if a patient moves his or her eye during the surgery. The other advantage of the VISX 3D Active Trak laser is that a patient no longer has to hold his or her eye perfectly still during the LASIK eye surgery procedure, which can often be a challenge for both the patient and the surgeon. Another unique feature of the VISX laser technology is Variable Spot Scanning (VSS). VSS allows for a larger treatment area, offering greater flexibility in developing a more personalized laser vision procedure. The Beverly Hills LASIK Center can serve all Wavefront LASIK eye surgery needs for patients throughout Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Los Angeles, and worldwide. Contact us today in Beverly Hills with your questions about Wavefront LASIK treatment to see if the procedure is right for you.

Custom refractive eye surgery integrates corneal mapping, the use of the FDA-approved VISX laser, and technologically advanced computer equipment to allow a patient's vision to be corrected at a much more precise degree than traditional LASIK eye surgery. Instead of using the standard lens test, our surgeons perform corneal mapping. During this procedure, a tiny computer reads the eyes, evaluating what corrections are needed and to what degree. This computer, called WaveFront, then transmits this customized prescription to the VISX, the FDA-approved laser used to perform all CustomVue refractive eye surgeries. The VISX laser allows for vision correction to the nearest 1/100 of a power -- making it 25 times more effective than LASIK eye surgery performed on one of our Santa Monica or Los Angeles patients without CustomVue (or Custom Cornea).

According to recent FDA studies, 100 percent of 189 patients who underwent CustomVue Wavefront LASIK eye surgery reported post-operative 20/40 vision or better without contact lenses or glasses, 94 percent reported 20/20 vision, and 74 percent reported 20/16 vision or better. The overwhelming majority of those studied also reported that their night vision was much sharper and stronger after the LASIK eye surgery than ever before. Wavefront LASIK is more precisely designed to enhance the quality of your vision. Our doctors will advise you about the best choice of our three FDA approved excimer lasers to help you to achieve the optimum results for your LASIK procedure. Contact the Beverly Hills LASIK Center today about Wavefront LASIK, and find out if you would be a good candidate for the procedure.
