An excimer laser produces a cool ultraviolet light that vaporizes tiny amounts of corneal tissue without causing any thermal damage. This precise reshaping corrects myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. In essence, the laser is permanently correcting refractive errors for which solutions such as glasses and contact lenses are designed to compensate. Once the necessary refinements have been completed, the cornea[1] can properly refract light, reducing or completely eliminating the patient’s need for corrective eyewear. The WaveLight EX500 performs this fundamental part of surgery with exceptional precision and efficiency, with special safety features to minimize risks. During LASIK, we also incorporate the WaveLight FS200[2], a laser tool used to create the corneal flap with far greater precision and safety than a keratome blade.
