Wavefront CustomCornea®
CustomCornea®- With the chance to see
beyond 20/20, this changes everything you thought you knew about
LASIK.
No
two eyes are the same. Every person has small distortions in
their vision that even glasses and contacts can not correct. It
is these subtle differences that make your eyes completely
unique to you. Texas Tech’s Laser Vision Institute is pleased
to be among the first centers in the United States to offer
Wavefront CustomCornea® This advance in technology allows the
surgeons at the Laser Vision Institute to perform a more
accurate, more precise laser vision correction offering a level
of vision never before possible.
For years doctors have measure vision by having patients
read letters on a standard Snellen Eye Chart. Doctors
consider your vision "normal" if you can identify the
small letters on the 20/20 row from a distance of 20
feet. Until now, laser vision correction, like glasses
and contacts, could only correct the visual distortions
caused by nearsightedness, farsightedness, and
astigmatism. However, these three types of vision
distortions only account for 85%-90% of the overall
quality of your vision. Now thanks to advanced
Wavefront CustomCornea® technology, its possible to
measure and address the other 10% to 15% of visual
distortion. With this advance in technology, the Laser
Vision Institute’s patients now have the potential to
not only see beyond 20/20, but to have clear, crisp
vision never experienced before.
WHY IS THE LASER VISION INSTITUTE SO EXCITED ABOUT
WAVEFRONT CUSTOMCORNEA®?
