Our Laser Technologies

As a leading center for laser vision correction, we approach technology seriously. This means understanding that one laser platform is not appropriate for every patient. Our state-of-the-art surgical suite houses two excimer lasers. These include the Alcon Wavelight EX500 and the Johnson & Johnson VISX S-4. Both lasers allow Dr. MacRae to perform a variety of treatments, including wavefront-guided custom LASIK and PRK. Each platform includes high speed eye tracking systems that lock onto the pupil ensuring accurate alignment and safety . Even if you move a fraction of a millimeter, the laser will pause treatment until Dr. MacRae re-aligns you. This results in the best optics and superior outcomes. Both lasers are incredibly fast, placing up to 500 treatment spots per second on the cornea to make treatment times shorter and more accurate.
