 Wavefront Lasik Eye Surgery, otherwise known as Custom Wavefront Lasik, is a procedure which can correct common vision problems like nearsightedness.
Lasik in general is a rather popular vision repair technique for quite a few reasons. Lasik Surgery is known for being a very quick and relatively painless medical procedure. Each eye tends to take around ten minutes. Healing from wavefront lasik is also very fast, generally taking no longer than a couple of days.
The wavefront procedure is known for being more precise than the normal or standard technique and is utilized to cure "higher-order" aberrations in the eye.
During the procedure, a beam of light is sent into the eye, and with the use of various data points, a map is created with the information sent back to the wavefront sensor. The way this works is when the light returns to the sensor, it reads distortions which indicate areas in the eye that have deficiencies.
The map that is created is used to pinpoint problem areas, which are the aberrations mentioned before. |

 While in the past not everyone could afford LASIK eye surgery, the price has come down enough in the past few years that this safe and effective solution to vision problems is now available to most people. If you're thinking about having eye surgery then I'm sure you'd like to have an idea of the true cost of laser eye surgery.
First of all you need to understand that laser eye surgery is quoted on a per eye basis. So when you get a quote, hear or read an advertisement you're getting the price for the procedure on just one eye. You'll need to double that price if you're going to have the procedure done on both eyes.
Next you should know that the price of eye surgery varies widely based on several factors. The most important of these is location, type of laser surgery and experience of the doctor.
People on the east and west coasts of the U.S. will typically find the highest prices for LASIK surgery. That's simply to be expected since the cost of living here is higher |
