PRNewswire, New York, N.Y. –December 18, 2001— Since FDA approval in the 1990's, there has been a tremendous growth in the number of patients who have undergone LASIK vision correction surgery. Over one million patients have been treated in the United States alone, and millions more people are expected to undergo this surgery in the next few years. With this increased amount of surgery, the number of patients who will have problems such as glare, halo, and starburst will ... increase. These problems are typically due to different prescriptions being required for different portions of the eye. One of the most important steps of LASIK surgery is using the correct prescription to program the laser. Traditionally, vision was measured with a single lens prescription that corrected the whole eye on average. Conventional laser treatment methods can only treat that one prescription. Vision Wavemap® custom laser vision analysis uses a laser beam to measure the varied prescriptions at many different points on a patient's eye and produces a 3D map of their vision. Any distortion in these maps is due to the amount of variation in prescription needed for that patient's eye. The distortion level gives the surgeon a more complete analysis of the person's eye, and can help to predict who might have glare, halo, and starburst if they have conventional vision correction surgery.
