Congratulations!  By learning more about CustomVue LASIK surgery, you are taking the first step toward achieving improved, normal and natural vision. 

 The most exciting and recent development in vision correction surgery is CustomVue (also known as Wavefront-guided) LASIK.  CustomVue Lasik has transformed people’s lives.  The ability to see better without the hassles of contact lenses or glasses has inspired patients to explore new opportunities in their personal lives, in their workplace as well as recreational activities.  More than 4 million people in the United States have already enjoyed the benefits of Laser Vision Correction.

 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved CustomVue treatments as a new standard for the correction of nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism.

 HOW DOES IT WORK?

 Using WaveScan based digital technology, originally developed for use in high-powered telescopes to reduce distortions when viewing distant objects in space, we can now identify, measure and correct imperfections in your eyes 25 times more precisely than with standard methods used for glasses and contact lenses.  This information is transferred to the laser, allowing the surgeon to map and correct your eye’s optical imperfections with microscopic detail.

 Wavefront-guided surgery might be superior to traditional laser surgeries for many candidates.  CustomVue LASIK is personalized for you, resulting in sharper, clearer vision and reduced risk of side effects such as glare, night vision difficulties, and halos which can sometimes occur following standard LASIK procedures.
