Wavefront Laser Eye Surgery
Wavefront Laser Eye Surgery is an advanced form of LASIK that uses detailed corneal mapping to customize vision correction.
It enhances accuracy, sharpness, and minimizes visual distortions like glare or halos.
Overview And Clinical Background
Customized Vision Correction
Wavefront LASIK captures detailed optical irregularities unique to each eye.
The laser then reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors with high precision.
- Technology: Uses 3D wavefront mapping to guide laser treatment.
- Benefit: Higher visual quality than standard LASIK.
- Ideal for: Patients seeking clearer night vision and reduced glare.
Symptoms, Signs And Presentation
Candidates often have blurred vision from myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.
Wavefront LASIK fine-tunes correction beyond standard glasses or contacts.
- Blurred or distorted vision: Difficulty focusing at different distances.
- Glare sensitivity: Especially while driving at night.
- Dependence on glasses: Seeking permanent correction.
Diagnosis Methods And Investigations
Corneal and Optical Mapping
Preoperative evaluation ensures the eye’s health and suitability for laser correction.
Wavefront analysis measures tiny imperfections in light travel through the eye.
- Corneal topography: Maps the curvature and thickness.
- Wavefront aberrometry: Detects higher-order aberrations for custom correction.
- Pupil size testing: Ensures safe and accurate treatment zone.
Treatment Options And Surgical Techniques
The laser gently reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors.
The entire procedure takes about 15 minutes per eye with quick recovery.
- Step 1: A corneal flap is created and lifted.
- Step 2: Laser ablation corrects the corneal shape per wavefront data.
- Step 3: Flap is replaced without stitches for natural healing.
Recovery, Risks And Prognosis
Most patients notice clearer vision within 24 hours.
Temporary dryness or mild glare may occur but resolves quickly.
