The health of your eyes is critical and their safety a fundamental requirement. Therefore, WaveLight lasers come with a unique safety feature: PerfectPulse Technology ™. This sophisticated technology ensures that the entire treatment and each pulse of the laser beam are completely controlled.
PerfectPulse Technology ™
- High precision process control
- Eliminates environmental factors like humidity and temperature with a sealed enclosure for the optics
- Ensures placement of every laser pulse with ultra-fast eye tracking that follows the fastest eye movements precisely with the laser beam. So, even when your eye moves, the treatment remains perfectly centered
- Prevents thermal effects on the eye and dryness, improving the healing process
In order to provide the most precise results, physicians conduct an accurate assessment of the eye’s visual defects and exactly determine its health. The WaveLight laser then uses this information to create a precise treatment with an accurate and predictable outcome.
The WaveLight laser uses a very small laser beam that shapes the eye’s surface like a very delicate brush. The smooth shape of the beam creates an even surface across the entire eye, once again shortening healing times and providing precise results.
With the WaveLight laser systems the actual treatment time lasts only a few seconds as compared to often longer procedures. An average treatment will take no more than 10-12 seconds – in many cases even less.
This faster treatment reduces the risk of infection because it minimizes the eye's exposure to surrounding air. Also, clinical studies demonstrate that a quick treatment will reduce the healing and recovery time since the stress impact on the eye is lessened and dehydration is reduced.
