Custom Cornea

LADARVision®

At Dello Russo Laser Vision, we make use of the LADARVision® wavefront Custom Cornea System for its unsurpassed technological excellence and superior visual Custom LASIK results. This FDA-approved system combines state-of-the-art wavefront mapping technology with a flying spot excimer laser and active tracking system to achieve unparalleled accuracy in treatment. If you are interested in a treatment, please contact our practice.

The system's technology, originally developed for use in astronomy, first creates an extremely detailed, three-dimensional map of your eyes' unique visual aberrations, allowing the doctor to perfect your sight with the Custom Cornea procedure. This allows our surgeons to treat not only lower order visual aberrations (nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism), but also higher order aberrations that are commonly associated with night vision problems such as glare and halos.

In addition, the unique design and tracking system ensures absolutely accurate placement of the laser beam as it reshapes your cornea. The system is designed with a narrow beam excimer laser (just .8mm wide), capable of removing microscopic amounts of corneal tissue. This treatment is also equipped with flying spot technology and the LADARVision wavefront active tracking system, which work together to compensate for your eye's involuntary movements during surgery. The makes use of an infrared laser, a positioning sensor, and tracking mirrors to measure and predict even the smallest eye movements, while the flying spot laser beam is able to retarget its area of focus in under 10 milliseconds. The Custom Cornea system using LADARVision wavefront technology performed by a surgeon at Dello Russo Laser Vision will have patients who have undergone LASIK surgery seeing with clarity.

Intralase FS Laser

Dello Russo Laser Vision is proud to offer our patients the option of all-laser Custom LASIK with our state-of-the-art Intralase FS laser (femtosecond laser). Intralase has revolutionized the first stage of Custom LASIK surgery, which up until now has required the use of a mechanical blade called a microkeratome to create the corneal flap, by replacing that blade with safer, more accurate laser technology for the system. The narrow beam size and rapid pulse of this FDA-approved laser allow Custom LASIK surgeons to target the exact depth and location at which to create the flap, resulting in precise, predictable flap incisions. In addition, use of this laser in the procedure to create the flap avoids possible complications from the high eye pressure induced when using the microkeratome blade. The results: precise, predictable incisions and greater flap stability following your procedure. If you would like to learn more about the Custom Cornea system, which makes use of the LADARVision wavefront tracking technology, and all-laser LASIK with our Intralase laser , please contact Dello Russo Laser Vision today.
