2 weeks from today...

Heading to the Lasik Institute in Edina, MN. SUPER EXCITED and very happy that it's a steal of a deal $2600 total. Gundersen STARTS at $2300 per eye...and yes, my eye doc. at Gundersen recommended them!

Custom Wavefront LASIK

With CustomVue LASIK technology, 98% of patients who used the VISX laser, can see 20/20 or better after one year after procedure.

Custom LASIK - Leading Edge Results

The key difference with Custom LASIK is the use of the wavefront analyzer which brings a whole new level of knowledge.

Custom Wavefront is 25 Times More Precise
Originally invented by NASA, wavefront technology is now available for medical uses. The wavefront analyzer produces a sophisticated map of your vision, like a "fingerprint", which is 25 times more precise than standard measurements. It also captures imperfections, or "higher order aberrations", or tiny irregularities which cannot be corrected by glasses or contact lenses.

Glares or Halos
These imperfections are typically linked to glare and halos with glasses or contact lenses - however with Custom Wavefront these issues are becoming a thing of the past. All of this personalized eye data is transferred electronically to the laser and a Custom LASIK treatment plan is developed.

This plan will exactly match and correct your visual errors. In fact, with Custom LASIK, many patients will actually see better than they could with glasses or contacts. Many also notice reduced glare and night vision problems versus previous corrective lenses before LASIK surgery. Custom Wavefront LASIK has been called leading edge because it has the potential to improve not only how much you see, but also how well you can see.

Custom LASIK is a "specialized treatment" using the most advanced technology in the laser eye surgery industry. This procedure is premium priced. Treatment and recovery time are typically the same with Custom LASIK as traditional LASIK. Learn more about CustomVue Technology!

You will LOVE IT!!! I am so happy with how I see now - I had some major correction - still not quite 20/20 in both eyes - but considering I was starting at a -10.08 I am not complaining! I do still have some night halos and haze- even considering I had custom Lasik done- but - it was still worth every penny!~ it is weird getting used to just being able to actually see - I frequently thik I need to go take out my contacts! ;-P

enjoy~
