The WAVE SCAN aberrometer from AMO (Abbott Medical Optics) allows us to make extremely precise measurements of the optical aberrations of each eye. This technology plays a central role in the iLASIK procedure, which pushes the boundaries of refractive eye surgery by offering an unparalleled level of precision and personalization.
An advanced front wave system
The iLASIK procedure combines bladeless flap creation (femtosecond laser) with Wavefront-guided laser treatment, for maximum safety, precision and visual comfort. Thanks to this system, both lower and higher order aberrations are mapped, resulting in a highly personalized correction of vision.
Benefits of the WAVE SCAN System and iLASIK
✅ Highly accurate measurements – High resolution front wave data allows for extremely precise treatment of deviations.
✅ Less dependent on glasses or lenses – In many cases, the result exceeds the visual acuity with classic optical corrections.
✅ Better results for various refractive errors:
- For low to moderate myopia: 100% of patients in clinical studies were able to drive without glasses or lenses, and 98% achieved 20/20 vision or better after one year.
- For hyperopia: Four times more patients were satisfied with their vision after treatment than with their glasses or lenses before.
- In high myopia: Only 2.2% of eyes required additional treatment.
- Improved night vision: Satisfaction with night vision increased significantly for all indications.
✅ Iris registration (IR) – Ensures extremely precise positioning of the laser treatment.
✅ No pupil dilation required – The measurement is taken in natural light, with the pupil at rest.
✅ Eye Tracker in XYZ direction – Tracks eye movements in real time for maximum precision.
Conclusion
The combination of the WAVE SCAN aberrometer and the iLASIK procedure offers one of the most advanced and safe solutions for permanent vision correction — fully adapted to your unique eye structure.
