Custom LASIK is a personalised vision correction treatment, which uses a computerised device called a corneal topographer to measure your individual cornea, examining specific corneal irregularities (called aberrations) and calculating how to best improve your vision. In contrast, standard or traditional LASIK and other laser eye treatments, such as SMILE and PRK, are programmed based on the prescription of your glasses or contact lenses, which does not take your corneal aberrations into account.
Topography guided technology allows your eye surgeon to customise where the laser will remove tissue from the cornea, taking into account your cornea’s individual shape and irregularities.
Custom LASIK has the ability to improve not just the clarity of your near and far vision, as measured by the Snellen chart, but it can also improve the quality of your vision.
