ALLEGRETTO WAVE™ LASER SYSTEM

We perform all of our treatments on the Allegretto Wave™ laser, which combines wavefront optimized treatment, small spot PerfectPulse Technology™, and sophisticated eye tracking for optimal results.

Wavefront Optimization

The Allegretto laser utilizes wavefront optimized technology to capture and automatically compensate for the unique curvature of your eyes, allowing your doctor to customize your laser vision correction treatment and preserve the highest quality of vision.

With earlier laser systems, the “optical zone”, or area of correction, was centered on the front of the cornea; the result was a flattened circular area that ended with an abrupt edge, causing unwanted side effects like poor night vision, glare, and halos.

The illustration below demonstrates the use of additional pulses to the cornea periphery which preserves the aspherical shape of the cornea. This compensation, combined with the incredible small 1mm size of the laser beam, produces a smooth, effective optical zone that results in higher quality vision.

PerfectPulse™ Technology
and Smart Energy Control

The Allegretto laser is the fastest and most precise laser system with the ability to treat the widest range of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The PerfectPulse Technology™ safely and accurately controls every single laser pulse from start to finish. It is applied to help ensure safe and precise work at high speed.

Smart Energy Control automatically measures and balances the energy level to ensure that each laser pulse delivers the same accurate result. After the beam has been created, it passes through three check points, where the energy level is checked and adjusted if necessary, ensuring that the beam is perfectly attuned to its destination.

Eye Tracking Technology

High-speed eye tracking is used to follow the eye’s fastest movements. Every 4-6 milliseconds, the eye’s location is measured and the internal mirrors of the Allegretto are automatically aligned. Just before each pulse is released, a final check is made to confirm the position of the eye. This happens 200 times every second, once for every laser pulse.

As a result of these unique technologies, the Allegretto Wave laser is completely controlled, achieving the most accurate level of correction possible.

Oculus Pentacam

The Oculus Pentacam is an essential tool for diagnosis and management of corneal, cataract, and refractive surgery.

The innovative technology of the Pentacam has enabled physicians to analyze the front surfaces of the eye with an accuracy that was previously not available, thus permitting them to diagnose eye conditions and diseases with greater confidence.

The pentacam captures a high resolution image of the anterior eye segment and provides information from the anterior corneal surface to the posterior crystalline capsule. The images generated are three-dimensional rotating models used for corneal topographic and chamber analysis. They are movable presentations that are highly reliable and precise.

Key advantages of the rotating image process are:

• Precise measurements of the central cornea
• The correction of the eye’s movement
• The easy fixation for the patient
• Extremely short examination time
