Lasik Wavefront Technology

Lasik surgery has improved the eyes of millions of people around the world. Visual becomes seen in people able to see their children again and help influence family income through work. Two articles that just million, which would never be able to do it again.

However, Lasik eye surgery has not been sitting on its laurels. Near the LASIK surgery techniques are improving all the time. Such improvement is wavefront technology. use technology wavefront Lasik eye surgery to more accurately map the patient's eyeball, making the surgery more accurate.

This is important because the eyes are not all the same. They are like the hands, at first glance all look the same, but once you get to the details, they are not. There are all sizes, shapes and proportions. The same is true for the eyes.

The best map of the eye, is more likely that the surgeon will give the best view, approach them with respect to the specific questions in their particular case. Wavefront technology helps the surgeon to achieve this goal.

Wavefront technology is really a technology that has been modified from astronomy. in astronomical telescopes, it is essential that the lenses are as perfect as possible because increasing, even the slightest change could lead to large distortions, which in turn the telescope will be almost useless.

Astronomers have used this technology in the 1970's, when it was very late when he noticed a spark for use in eye surgery and modified. Wavefront technology was born and Lasik eye surgeons and considered by others with high expectations.

In fact, the spark that has the potential value of the piece of astronomical technology came to a German doctor named Josef Bille, aid in the practice had begun.

It has gradually strengthened and adapted sensors and Lasik manufacturer announced in 1997. This in turn enables device manufacturers to customize Lasik Wavefront technology in their own material.

Wavefront technology is very complicated in design and technology, but also to be understood easily. machine sends a wave front flat light (called a wavefront) through the eye of the retina that refers to the wavefront device.

wavefront machine is compared to decide the two measures are found, what to do to correct and guide the laser instead of solutions. Simple as that!

However, the genius who created and modified wavefront technology is not everything. They send their machines wavefronts from different angles, so that the computer will become a three-dimensional image of an even greater precision.

Currently there are over 60 models, which can automatically from a laser wavefront LASIK technology, to be corrected. So if you have trouble with long or short sighted, make an appointment with your LASIK surgeon as soon as possible.
