Advanced LASIK and PRK technology refers to the suite of laser platforms and imaging systems that allow us to create fully customized treatment plans for each eye. These technologies go beyond traditional LASIK by integrating high-resolution corneal mapping, wavefront measurements, and minimally invasive laser systems to enhance precision and reduce post-operative visual disturbances.
For example, the Ziemer Z8 femtosecond laser creates ultra-thin, precise flaps during LASIK with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue, promoting faster recovery and greater comfort. The Allegretto WaveLight® laser delivers wavefront-optimized treatments that maintain the natural shape of the cornea and help reduce glare and halos. For PRK and surface ablation cases, the NIDEK excimer laser offers exceptional accuracy, making it ideal for patients with thin corneas or more complex visual needs.
These technologies also support topography-guided LASIK, which uses detailed corneal maps to treat subtle surface irregularities — offering an even greater level of customization for qualified patients.
