Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye SurgeryThe constructions of the eyes are different for each individual. So a generalized lasik eye surgery is not suitable for vision correction of everybody. Before lasik eye surgery the doctor usually examines the eye for its constructional irregularity and accordingly prescribes a type of lasik surgery. Earlier this examination was done by the traditional way. Even these days less costly lasik eye surgery still uses the older technologies. The latest technology in lasik eye surgery is wavefront laser eye surgery. In this procedure a map of the interior of the eye is formed with the help of a wavefront machine. The wavefront machine sends a light beam through the pupil of the eye. With the help of this light of beam first the size of the pupil is measured so that correct amount of light can be sent up to the retina. The light beam sent by the system reflects on the retina and is recorded on the wavefront machine. Now different machines work differently. Some machine records the reflected beam out of the pupil, others record the ingoing and out coming beams of light to and from the pupil. This lasik wavefront records are used to form a map of the eye which is used for wavefront guided laser eye surgery. This type of wavefront eye surgery is called Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery. In the traditional approach the mapping of the eye is made with the help of the experience of the doctor and the interactions of the patient. This, many times leads to wrong diagnosis resulting in over correctness or under correctness of the vision. In custom wavefront lasik eye surgery this mapping is done totally by the computer software leaving no chance for wrong diagnosis. That is why custom wavefront lasik eye surgery is much more successful that conventional lasik surgery. The map of the eye is then used in custom wavefront lasik eye surgery to make up a customized corneal ablation. This customized corneal ablation is then interfaced digitally to the Excimer laser eye surgery system. In custom wavefront lasik eye surgery the laser eye surgery system makes use of a very high speed computerized system to track the movement of the eye. This is because however steady you look at the eye makes frequent jumps that are beyond your control. The custom wavefront lasik eye surgery machine scans the eye thousands of time per second. This helps the computer in custom wavefront lasik eye surgery to pin point the laser for custom ablation of the cornea without any disturbance due to the eye movement. In addition the machine used for Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery uses a very fine laser which travels very rapidly in an overlapping pattern which provides quick visual recovery and customized correction as per your prescription. Though Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery is costly but it reduces the post lasik complications such as haloes, night glaring etc., by perfectly ablating the cornea and bringing the vision to a near correctness. The advantages of Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery are we have a better chance of having a perfect vision of 20/20. Sometimes in Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery the vision gets better than 20/20. Unlike in traditional lasik eye surgery Custom Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery reduces the complication of loosing contrast sensitivity. Summary |
