1.Wavefront Customization
Wavefront technology is a way to customize laser treatment for each individual based on unique visual characteristics of each eye.
The Wavefront map is created by bouncing harmless light rays off the patient’s retina. Results not only attempt to retain the natural shape of the cornea but also target any previous aberrations within a patient's eye. Hence, Wavefront Customization increases quality of vision and reduces the chance of night vision problems, such as glare and halos and improved treatment accuracy.
Corrective eye surgery is now common in many parts of the world with Thailand a leading location. It is generally a safe and convenient way to improve one’s vision. LASIK, or Laser In-Situ Keratomileusis, takes only about 15 minutes per eye and is done on an outpatient bases that requires no injections or sutures, just drops to numb your eyes for a short while after the surgery.
Recovery from the surgery is quick with only temporary side effects, and your new improved vision will appear soon after the procedure.
LASIK makes permanent corrections to your vision to where you will never have to wear glasses or contact lenses again.
Thailand’s TRSC International LASIK Center was the first such center to be awarded the prestigious ISO 9001:2000 certification, and it recently earned ISO 9001:2008.

The process of LASIK surgery has the potential of creating visual aberrations by flattening the shape of a patient’s central cornea. Optimization is the key to provide the best result as it uses a special-ized wavefront-guided ablation pattern to maintain the natural curve of your eye or corneal shape. It will also increase quality of vision and further reduce the chance of night vision problems such as glare and halos.
2.Optimization
Ultimate LASIK is the most advanced procedure currently available. By combining both Wavefront Customization and Optimization, Ulti-mate LASIK can not only target any previous aberrations within a patient’s eye but also retain its natural shape to avoid creating any new vision difficulties for the individual.

Microkeratome
The microkeratome is an essential tool in LASIK surgery and plays a major role in the process. The current technology makes the microkeratome very safe to use and creates a smooth sur-face cut.
Laservision International LASIK Center uses the Carriazo Barraquer(C&B) and M2, the latest technology from France. They also use MK 2000, a new and unique advancement in the microkeratome that is best suited for the Asian eye.
The excimer laser uses an ultraviolet wavelength of 193 nano-meters. It is a special laser that works on the superficial layers without damaging them in the least. It is not harmful to any of the tissue close by, and it is certainly not harmful to your eyeball. The laser is precise and 100% accurate.
