THE TECHNOLOGY

The most important factors in the successful outcome of your LASIK procedure are the skill and experience of your surgeon. But a surgeon needs state-of-the-art equipment to give you the best possible results.

That's why Schaeffer Eye Center uses only the most recently FDA-approved excimer lasers and combines them with the diagnostic precision originally invented by NASA for use in high-powered precision telescopes, called Wavefront technology. Our Wavefront technology measures the way light travels through your entire optical pathway and compares it to the way light travels through an optically perfect eye. This creates a 3-D map of your vision that is as unique to you as your fingerprint and 25 times more precise than conventional equipment. This customized "fingerprint" is then transferred electronically to the laser.
