There are a number of factors that will affect both your actual laser vision correction procedure and the results you can realistically expect to gain from it. Among them are:

• Your existing vision problems, and the amount of correction that can be achieved
• The experience and expertise of the physician attending you
• The technology behind the laser eye surgery system your physician will use

The first two factors may seem self-evident, but the third may come as some surprise. This is understandable since many people are unaware that different laser systems with different capabilities are available. Technology matters because it can impact the accuracy with which your cornea is reshaped and therefore the results you can expect from the procedure.

That's why, when finding your doctor, it's important that you consider the laser vision correction system he or she will use for your procedure. Specific technical attributes of laser eye surgery systems that you should compare and discuss with your doctor are:

• The Wavefront device
• The laser system used
• Eye tracking capabilities

See the world Like Never Before

Wavelight was the first company to introduce high speed laser vision correction in the United States. Now, the ALLEGRETTOWAVE EYE-Q takes the technology one step further with the fastest excimer laser system available today. Operating at 400 HZ while applying 400 treatment pulses per second, many people can receive correction treatment in as little as 8 seconds, some even less.

The ALLEGRETTOWAVE EYE-Q customizes every treatment to the patient's individual prescription and cornea while aiming to improve what nature originally designed. The Wavefront Optimized treatment considers the unique curvature and biomechanics of the eye, preserving quality of vision and addressing the spherical distortions that can induce glare may affect night vision. Wavelight represents a new generation in laser vision technology.
