Custom Eyes LASIK – Personalized Vision Correction
See the world in stunning clarity—designed just for your eyes. At Planet Lasik, we bring you Custom Eyes LASIK, an advanced AI-powered laser vision correction by Amaris 1050RS technology. By mapping over 100,000 unique data points in your eye, this breakthrough procedure delivers exceptional precision and sharp vision in less than 10 seconds.
What Is Custom Eyes LASIK?
Custom Eyes LASIK is a next-generation laser eye surgery designed to correct vision problems with high precision. Unlike traditional LASIK, which follows a standard approach, Custom Eyes LASIK uses detailed eye measurements to create a personalized treatment plan for each patient. Using advanced mapping technology, it captures the unique structure of your eye, allowing for more accurate laser guidance.
This technology helps correct common refractive errors and higher-order aberrations, which can cause glare, halos, and night vision issues. By addressing these imperfections, Custom Eyes LASIK delivers sharp vision, better contrast, and reduced visual disturbances.
The Evolution of LASIK: From Standard to Custom
LASIK has come a long way, evolving from a basic one-size-fits-all procedure to a highly customized treatment. Initially, LASIK used a generalized corneal map, which worked for many but didn’t consider the unique differences in each eye. This sometimes led to suboptimal results.
The introduction of Custom LASIK technology changed the game. Using wavefront-guided technology, it creates a 3D map of the eye, identifying even the smallest irregularities. This level of detail allows for more precise vision correction and significantly reduces side effects like halos and glare. With this advancement, LASIK is now more personalized, effective, and safer than ever.
How Custom LASIK Corrects Your Vision?
Custom LASIK begins with a comprehensive eye scan using wavefront technology to map the way light travels through your eye. This data is then used to guide the laser, ensuring precise correction of your unique vision imperfections.
Step-by-Step Process:
- Eye Mapping: A detailed scan captures the unique shape and imperfections of your cornea.
- Flap Creation: A femtosecond laser creates a thin corneal flap with extreme accuracy.
- Laser Reshaping: The laser precisely reshapes the cornea based on your custom eye map.
- Flap Repositioning: The flap is placed back, and natural healing begins immediately.
This advanced procedure ensures faster healing, better outcomes, and a more comfortable experience for patients.
Benefits of Custom LASIK for Different Vision Problems
Custom LASIK provides superior correction for a wide range of refractive errors:
Nearsightedness (Myopia): Up to –12D
Farsightedness (Hyperopia): Up to +6D
Astigmatism (Cylindrical Power): Up to 6D
It also addresses higher-order aberrations, improving contrast, night vision, and overall clarity beyond what standard LASIK can achieve.
What to Expect During a Custom LASIK Procedure
Treatment Time: The world’s fastest and safest laser AMARIS 1050RS, which takes less than 10 seconds per eye, is one of the fastest vision correction procedures available.
Duration: The entire procedure takes 5-7 minutes for both eyes.
Comfort: Numbing eye drops to ensure a painless experience.
Immediate Recovery: Some blurriness is expected, but most patients notice improved vision within 24-48 hours.
Is Custom LASIK Right for You?
You may be a good candidate for Custom LASIK if you:
- Are over 18 years old
- Have had a stable prescription for at least one year
- Have healthy eyes with no severe conditions like dry eyes or thin corneas
A consultation with a Planet Lasik specialist will help determine if Custom Eyes LASIK is the best fit for you.
