ABOUT THE Alcon® WaveLight® FS 200 Femtosecond Laser

Safe and Efficient Bladeless and more Precise Tailored to your Eyes
The WaveLight FS 200 Femtosecond Laser allows our surgeons to customize the refractive procedure for each patient’s needs. This innovative approach improves safety and efficiency when creating the corneal flap during this life-changing procedure. The femtosecond laser used in bladeless, all-laser LASIK directs tiny rapid pulses of infrared light to a precise, computer-controlled depth within the cornea to create the flap. The depth is determined and programmed by the AIO surgeon. These high-energy light pulses (15,000 per second) eliminate the need for a blade and result in faster flap creation. It also offers tailored performance, including adjustable hinge position and size, variable side-creation angles, and flap sizes and shapes. This allows our surgeons to expand their treatment options, and even offer refractive surgery to patients who may have not been a good candidate in the past.

About the Allegretto Wave Laser

Accuracy Total Control Superior Clinical Results Perfect Pulse
Taking human sight beyond 20/20 is possible. The ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q customizes every treatment to the patient’s individual prescription and cornea while aiming to improve what nature originally designed. The Wavefront Optimized™ treatment considers the unique curvature and biomechanics of the eye, preserving quality of vision and addressing the spherical distortions that can induce glare and night vision reduction. WaveLight was the first company to introduce high-speed laser vision correction in the United States. Now, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q takes the technology one step further with the fastest excimer laser system available today in the U.S. Thanks to the incredible power of the laser, many people can have their vision corrected in as little as eight seconds, some even more quickly. At the same time, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q delivers superior results, with less risk of side effects. PerfectPulse Technology™ ensures safe and precise work at high speed. Each ultra-thin laser pulse is used to sculpt the corneal surface of the eye with the utmost accuracy. The high-speed eye-tracker follows the eye’s fastest movements, checking the eye’s positions 400 times per second while ensuring an accurate placement of each laser pulse on the cornea. In addition, an integrated crossline projector provides the surgeon with an exact alignment of the eye’s position, making the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q one of the safest, most effective optical lasers currently available.
