Who can benefit from Wavefront LASIK?
Most people, including those with higher-order aberrations, can benefit from Wavefront LASIK. Until Wavefront was developed, those patients with a significant amount of higher-order aberration had less satisfactory results with conventional LASIK than others. Over 90% of people who currently wear glasses or contact lenses for nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism can now benefit from some form of laser vision correction. The best way to determine how a customized procedure may benefit you is to have a comprehensive eye evaluation and obtain a WavePrint map of your own individual visual “fingerprint.
