About Eye & LAsik Surgery
 
Zyoptix is a much more advanced form of LASIK. Specifically, Zyoptix is different because its highly sophisticated technology allows the surgeon to:
  • Examine each eye for previously unseen details knows as ‘aberrations’
  • Plan the customized treatment that can correct individual visual errors and aberrations in each eye.
  • Programme a laser with a combination of smaller and larger beams to deliver a precise treatment – a treatment that is unique to each patient.
  • Saves up to 25% of tissue loss.

Zyoptix and LASIK corrections: The big differences

In addition to standard visual errors, Zyoptix also measures and treats small vision errors (higher order aberrations) that scatters light in a pattern that is unique to you. Scattered light errors could, for example, cause shading seen round one edge of a perfectly round light, and certainly they are an important cause of poor quality night vision. About 70% of people could benefit from Zyoptix treatment.

These small errors are detected with wavefront technology and treated by the laser with a combination of smaller and larger beams, allowing the surgeon to deliver a more precise, personalised treatment.
