With CustomVue™ or Wavefront Guided laser vision correction, a new standard is established, providing a precise level of measurement and correction never before possible.

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 an individual's eyes 25 times more precisely than with standard methods used for

glasses and contact lenses. This information is transferred to the laser, providing a new level of precision and accuracy.

Reach the full potential of your vision.

The pattern of visual imperfections in your eye is as unique to you as your fingerprint. Before these recent

advancements in technology, doctors were only able to use standard measurements to correct vision, meaning that prescriptions could only provide a certain level of correction regardless of an individual's needs.

CustomVue™ allows us to measure these visual imperfections at 200 individual points. We can treat each of the 200 points individually to create a personalized vision correction that is ideal for you. This treatment can potentially provide vision better than you have ever experienced with glasses or contact lenses.

Great results by day and by night.

One year after the CustomVue™ procedure, patients in a clinical study reported these great results without glasses or contact lenses:

100% could pass a driving test
98% could see 20/20 or better
70% could see 20/16 or better
In the clinical study, four times as many people were very satisfied with their night vision after the procedure as compared to their night vision before with glasses or contact lenses.

Developed to make the LASIK laser eye surgery procedure even more effective, Wavefront allows for a complete, personalized measurement of the entire visual system, including the eye's shape, lens shape, corneal shape, depth of the eye, and the most accurate identification possible of anatomic anomalies that could cause vision conditions such as impaired night vision or the presence of halos. After each eye is evaluated, the computer designs a personalized LASIK surgical plan for the patient, and the surgeon loads that plan directly into the computer of our VISX Star 4 laser. Thanks to Wavefront, this highly accurate, FDA-approved laser can correct all or most vision problems identified in the plan with one LASIK treatment, whereas traditional LASIK laser eye surgery is a bit more limited in the number of refractive errors it can simultaneously correct.

Pre-operative Examination

No matter what type of laser eye surgery you choose, you will first need to have a pre-operative exam to verify that you are a good candidate for laser vision correction. This exam should include the following :

A glaucoma test

A refraction evaluation to ensure correction level information in the laser is accurate
A lensometer test to ensure that vision is stable
A pachymeter test to measure the cornea's thickness and determine which procedure suits you best
An orbscan test to map the shape and contour of the cornea
Wavefront diagnostic evaluation
Eye dilation to evaluate the retina and optic nerve
Prior to your surgery day

You must make appointments with your local eye care professional for your follow up. Make appointments with your doctor at home 1 week, one month and 3 months after your surgery date.
You will need to provide our clinic with the name of your eye care professional.
