New Laser Vision Correction Technology Gives Vision Improvement Without the Wait
Lasik eye surgery has been around for several years now, and the
procedure has helped thousands of people see more clearly. And as with most
medical technological advances, Laser Vision Correction has taken on a more
precise technique that gives patients a quicker recovery, less risk and very
importantly, allows them to see better within a day or two of the surgery.
The Lasik Eye Center in Columbia, SC Leads the Field
in Laser Vision Correction Eye Surgery
By using the Visx STAR S4 Excimer Laser, the Lasik Eye Center
physicians provide patients with the most accurate results in vision
correction. The high tech device uses two separate lasers to reshape the cornea
and thus eliminates the previous practice of combining blades and lasers to
make the corrections. Additionally, by
using the STAR S4 Excimer Laser, doctors at The Eye Center in Columbia can
combine the Variable Spot Scanning and the Variable Repetition Rate features.
And by using these procedures, known as the Advanced CustomVue procedure, the
entire process is accomplished quickly, and the thermal heating of the cornea
is reduced.
Benefits of
the Advanced Laser Technology
To say that the improvement in Laser Vision Correction provides
key benefits is an understatement. Here are a few of the benefits:
● Immediate
vision improvement
● Reduced
patient pain
● Reduced
recovery time since the entire procedure is accomplished with lasers, not
blades
● Reduced risk
for complications due to using blades
● More
precision reshaping of the cornea, thus improving vision to a higher degree
● No need to
dilate the eyes
