Advanced CustomVue™ combines a number of technology innovations into a laser
vision correction procedure individually customized to
each eye. |

 WaveScan
WaveFront™ System with Fourier Algorithms
Your eyes are
as unique as your fingerprint. Advanced CustomVue
addresses your eyes’ distinct characteristics using the
WaveScan WaveFront System and VISX™ Technology’s exclusive mathematical rules (Fourier
algorithms) to capture each eye’s unique imperfections
with far greater accuracy than ever before possible.
Like a topographical map showing the surface features of
a landscape, WaveScan™ technology
creates a detailed map of your eye’s optical system. The
system translates that information into completely
personalized digital treatment instructions and sends
them directly to the STAR S4 IR™ Excimer Laser System. |
The Advanced CustomVue procedure provides a new level of precision in treatment alignment with VISX Iris Registration, the first FDA-approved, fully automated method of aligning treatment. It’s normal for the pupil to shift positions from the time an eye is measured to the time of treatment. Iris registration technology centers the treatment correctly, regardless of the amount of time between WaveFront measurement and laser treatment and independent of changes in the pupil center from measurement to treatment. |
VISX STAR S4 IR™ Excimer Laser System
The VISX STAR S4 IR Excimer Laser system represents the most advanced laser technology platform available today. Integrating data collected by the WaveScan WaveFront System, the STAR S4 IR utilizes VISX Iris Registration and other exclusive VISX technologies to deliver advanced precision and enhanced safety. The Advanced CustomVue procedure is not affected by the patient’s eye movement during treatment and minimizes correction to only those areas of the cornea that require reshaping.
