Our Technology
Pan Pacific has access to the global technology that is revolutionizing laser vision correction today for tomorrow. We understand that technological leadership is a must for continued excellence in patient care.
IntraLase a 100% blade-free technique used to create the corneal flap. The computer-guided IntraLase laser delivers rapid pulses of light, a quadrillionth of a second each, to a pre-programmed depth and position within your cornea. Each pulse forms a microscopic bubble. As the IntraLase laser moves back and forth across your eye, the bubbles connect to form a corneal flap. Just prior to LASIK surgery, the doctor gently lifts the flap where these bubbles have created a smooth surface. Click here for IntraLase facts
The NIDEK EC-5000 laser is designed to reshape the cornea to reduce or eliminate nearsightedness, with or without astigmatism. It has been approved for the reduction and elimination of myopia in the low, moderate and high ranges.
The NIDEK EC-5000, one of the first lasers to gain FDA approval for use in the United States, is one of the most popular lasers worldwide and is the laser of choice for hundreds of top surgeons in the United States and Canada.
The VISX STAR platform's heritage of dependability and performance is well known. The STAR S4 IR from VISX has taken that reputation to an even higher level. Our latest excimer laser system represents the most advanced laser technology platform available today. Integrating data collected by the WaveScan/WaveFront System, the STAR S4 IR utilizes these exclusive VISX technologies to deliver precision custom ablations:
Laser Vision
Correction is now FDA approved to treat Myopia, Hyperopia, and Astigmatism. The
U.S. Food & Drug Administration has approved CustomVue treatments,
establishing a new standard for the correction of nearsightedness (myopia),
farsightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. You
may have heard CustomVue treatments referred to as "custom LASIK" or
"wavefront LASIK." CustomVue treatments use WaveScan technology,
originally developed to reduce distortions in high-powered telescopes, to:
In
addition, the CustomVue procedure uses Iris Registration Technology, the first
fully automated method of aligning and registering wavefront corrections for
CustomVue treatments. This non-contact method of aligning the treatment to the
cornea provides greater alignment accuracy. With
CustomVue treatments, your doctor can measure and correct the unique
imperfections in your vision. As shown in FDA clinical studies for treatment of
myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, the CustomVue procedure can produce better
vision than is possible with glasses or contact lenses. Is
the CustomVue Procedure for You? Treatments
are available for a variety of patients, including those with astigmatism,
whether the astigmatism is associated with nearsightedness, farsightedness or
mixed astigmatism. As a result, more than 92 percent of the U.S. population that
requires vision correction, 21 years of age or older, are eligible for this
life-altering procedure. Treatments
are now available for people with:
People with "mixed" or "irregular" astigmatism have
vision that is often difficult to correct with eyeglasses or contact lenses. As
shown in an FDA clinical study, with CustomVue treatment these individuals now
have the potential to achieve better vision than is possible with glasses or
contacts. CustomVue treatment offers the broadest range of wavefront-guided
treatments available. |
