LADARVISION®
CustomCornea®

How is this procedure different from traditional LASIK?

Traditional LASIK surgery can provide excellent results when correcting a wide range of vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.These vision problems are known as lower order aberrations. CustomCornea®, delivered by the LADARVision® system, is a new kind of LASIK procedure that takes a similar approach and can help with many of the same visual problems. However, CustomCornea® is different from traditional LASIK in two important respects:

• CustomCornea® goes beyond reshaping your cornea based on your prescription for eyeglasses or contacts. The procedure is completely customized to your eyes and your eyes alone.
• CustomCornea® can help with other vision problems that could not be detected previously, known as higher order aberrations. Experts believe these aberrations can contribute to vision problems such as glare, halos, and night vision problems.

Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Cetner is among the first in Illinois to offer this breakthrough technology.
