Overview of VISX CustomVue
This section explains what makes VISX CustomVue different from traditional laser eye procedures and why each treatment is as individual as your eyes.
VISX CustomVue uses advanced eye-mapping data to guide every laser pulse, creating a plan that respects the one-of-a-kind details of your cornea.
The procedure corrects myopia, hyperopia, mixed astigmatism, and high myopia, offering clear vision to a wide range of patients.
VISX CustomVue is FDA-approved and has been used successfully for many years, adding an extra layer of safety and confidence.
The Technology Behind VISX CustomVue
Several integrated systems work together to deliver precise, dependable results during your laser vision correction.
This technology creates a high-definition digital map of your eye, capturing even tiny irregularities to guide the laser.
The system automatically centers treatment even if your eye makes small movements, ensuring accuracy and safety.
Using variable spot scanning and variable repetition rates, this laser reshapes the cornea in seconds while keeping you comfortable.
