Dr. Manger uses wavefront laser technology before and during your LASIK procedure to accurately and precisely measure the imperfections and irregularities in your eye. The wavefront best LASIK technology in Orange County is 25 times more accurate than the measurements typically taken during an eye exam. This allows Dr. Manger to correct imperfections that could never before be measured or corrected. When wavefront laser technology is used, the LASIK procedure is considered “Custom” or “Custom Wavefront” LASIK.
While not all Orange County LASIK surgeons use use the best LASIK technology in Orange County, Dr. Manger uses wavefront laser technology for every Orange County LASIK procedure to perform a truly custom LASIK eye surgery that delivers the clear, crisp vision you desire. Wavefront laser technology not only has the ability to affect the prescription that you’ll have after your custom LASIK procedure, but also the sharpness of your vision and how well you will be able to see fine details. The overall result of using this technology is a better visual outcome, with lower chance of certain visual side effects, than would likely be possible without it.
Femtosecond lasers are the preferred method for creating the corneal flap during the LASIK procedure. When this laser is used to create the flap, the LASIK procedure is considered “All-Laser LASIK” or “100% blade-free.” Bladeless laser eye surgery in Orange County has been one of the most groundbreaking advancements since laser vision correction was introduced in 1989.
Many people are surprised to learn that not all doctors use the best LASIK technology in Orange County and that not all LASIK surgeons perform All-Laser LASIK procedures. Many Orange County LASIK surgeons still perform “conventional LASIK.” In conventional LASIK, the corneal flap is created with a metal blade and a mechanical holding device, called a microkeratome. Although conventional LASIK has been an effective procedure for many years, Dr. Manger has always remained at the forefront of Orange County LASIK by using only the best LASIK technology in Orange County.
The benefits of LASIK using All-Laser Custom Wavefront LASIK technology in Orange County include:
- Fewer complications as seen with the earlier mechanical devices
- Increased accuracy when creating the corneal flap
- Unprecedented control and precision during the procedure
- Higher level of safety and less patient anxiety
- Reduced occurrence of side effects such as haloes and glare
