 The CustomCornea® Solution

Traditional LASIK surgery can provide excellent results in correcting a wide range of common vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. These vision problems are known as lower order aberrations.

Custom Cornea® is a new kind of LASIK procedure which takes a similar approach and can help with many of the same visual problems. There are two reasons. CustomCornea® is different. CustomCornea® is the first laser vision correction procedure to go beyond reshaping your cornea based on your prescription for eyeglasses or contacts. The procedure is completely customized to your eyes and your eyes alone. Secondly, CustomCornea® can help with other vision problems that could not be detected previously, known as higher order aberrations. Experts believe these aberrations can be responsible for vision problems like glare and halos in low-light conditions and at night.

Higher order aberrations cannot be treated by traditional laser vision correction procedures, or even by wearing glasses or contacts. CustomCornea® is the first laser vision correction procedure that's FDA approved to address higher order aberrations.

Success Story
Introduced in 1999, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer Laser has become known around the world.

Prof. Theo Seiler and his team performed the first global wavefront-guided treatment on this platform. The system soon found strong acceptance specifically in central Europe, the Middle East and Asia. In 2000, the FDA clinical trials for Wavefront Optimized® LASIK were initiated with 11 clinical sites in the United States. Only three years later, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer Laser became the first system to receive concurrent approval for myopia and hyperopia along with the widest range of approvals ever granted to a new laser platform.

Based on refractive business reports, the WaveLight ALLEGRETTO WAVE® laser is the fastest selling laser system in the world. Multiple physicians have chosen the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® laser as their refractive workstation of choice...and there is a reason why.
