It is a highly effective effective outpatient procedure that is suitable
for most low, moderate and higher prescriptions.

reshape the front surface (cornea of your eye)

Wha t is Custom LASIK?LASIK?
•With custom (or Wavefront) LASIK, your eye's ability to
focus light rays is measured, and a 3-D map is created. The
map demonstrates irregularities in the way your eye
processes images.
•Information contained in the map guides the laser in
customizing the treatment to reshape your eye's
corneal surface so that these irregularities can be corrected.
