• Lasers were originally large beams without fast active tracking. Beam quality and fineness of calibration required that newer laser platforms be manufactured with fast active tracking and flying spot technology. These lasers took into account wave front principles to reduce aberrations so that larger optical zones reduce nighttime glare and halos. Recently we have acquired new aberrometry driven capabilities to our laser to reduce preexisting or existing aberrations. Thus the overall quality of vision after laser vision correction with advanced surface ablation and speed of application of the beam determine how accurate the eye prescription is eliminated and how the quality of vision is obtained. We compare our Allegretto Wave Laser results with all the doctors using this laser throughout the world. This allows us to make the best nomograms.
