Allegretto Wave Benefits

People who look into LASIK to improve their vision do not usually consider the type of laser that will be used on their eyes. What they usually focus on is the end result, where they can see what time it is from across the room or imagine themselves driving without the aid of contacts or glasses. However, the type of laser used in their LASIK surgery determines the success of their future vision. At the Kelly Laser Centers, we use cutting edge technology to make sure your vision is as good as it can possibly be following laser vision correction.

To get to this point, we use the Allegretto Wave excimer laser, one of the newest lasers on the market.

Benefits of Allegretto Wave

• Speed – Allegretto Wave is extremely fast and is able to track the movement of the eye at 200 pulses per second. Even those with high prescriptions will have a short laser procedure

• Cross Line Projector – A red cross line lets Dr. Kelly know exactly what position your eye is in relation to the laser for precise control

• Wavefront-guided Technology – Your eye is unique from any other eye. As a result, no two LASIK surgeries are the same. To help achieve a successful outcome, your eye needs to be mapped at a microscopic level. Wavefront-guided technology is able to reduce aberrations, which increases vision.

• PerfectPulse Technology – Combines eye tracking and speed so that the laser beam hits the cornea exactly where it should

Not many patients will think about the type of laser we use to help you see. However, Allegretto Wave excimer laser is definitely something you should know about, if only to put any anxiety you may have.

If you are interested in LASIK surgery or learning more about Allegretto Wave and are in the Long Island, Manhattan, or New York City area, please contact the experienced eye surgeons at Kelly Laser Center for a complimentary consultation.
