LV Platinum LASIK

LV Platinum LASIK -- can measure your eyes' the unique combination of lower and higher-order aberrations to create a custom Wavefront map.

The Wavefront map is transferred to the Excimer Laser to design a unique profile for your treatment. Your cornea is then precisely reshaped using a Multi-dimensional beam delivery system input with pre-calculated data from the Wavefront map. In addition, LV Platinum LASIK utilizes sophisticated Multi-dimensional eye tracking to detect the positional changes of the eyes, enabling us to deliver the highest quality and most accurate treatment.

Our most recent technology in LASIK is LV Signature Femto-LASIK, by the operating of LDV Femtosecond Laser Machine making all the LASIK procedure blade-free
with higher accuracy and more safety treatment.

The LASIK innovative technology procedure takes only 15 minute per eye and the process is:

• The procedure starts with a topical anesthetic eye drop to anesthetize the cornea, 15-20 minutes prior to the operation. During this period our refractive surgery specialist will explain each step.
• The patient will then moves and lie down horizontally under the laser. The eye area is then cleansed with an antibiotic solution
•  An eye speculum is put into the eye to remove any worry about blinking.
•  The surgeon applies some suctions to the surface of your eye-you will feel slight sensation of pressure. Then, the superficial cornea is separated into two layers, using a delicate instrument called “microkeratome”; leaving small attaching hinges to facilitate the repositioning (like a door of window with hinge).
• The flap that is created is then gently lifted. Using the excimer laser to reshape the cornea.
•  For near-sightedness, the central corneal curvature is decreased.
• For farsightedness, the central corneal curvature is increased.
