Does Dr. Goosey’s LASIK Procedure with WaveLight® Allegretto Really Work?

  • More than 17 million people worldwide haveundergone LASIK and 93% of nearsighted patients see at least 20/20 or better after LASIK surgery.

  • Every year, nearly 400,000 Americans have LASIK surgery.

  • 93% of nearsighted patients see at least 20/20 or better following LASIK eye surgery.

  • 87% of LASIK patients recommend LASIK to their friends.

LASIK with WaveLight® refractive technology FACTS:

  • 93% of nearsighted patients see 20/20 or better.

  • 83% of farsighted patients see 20/25 or better.

  • 92% of patients described their vision as “good” or “excellent”.

  • Think 20/20 vision is impressive? 75% of Wavefront Optimized® treated nearsighted patients, and 64% of Wavefront-Guided nearsighted patients actually see better than 20/20.

WaveLight® FS-200 Femtosecond Laser Technology

This femtosecond laser, used by Dr. Goosey, is the fastest on the market and offers:

  • Superior results with the most precise flap creation (just six seconds)
  • Reliable Depth Calibration and Confirmation Procedure
  • Ergonomically designed for patient comfort (no need to move between beds)
  • PerfectPulse Technology™ for precise laser alignment

Superior Clinical Results

The WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser system was the first to receive FDA approval with the widest approval range ever initially given to a new laser for both myopic and hyperopic vision correction.

Clinical Results:

  • More than 93% of patients report seeing at least as well or better than they had with glasses or contacts after one year.
  • Over 98% of patients achieved 20/40 vision (the requirement for most driving tests).
  • Nearly 60% of near-sighted patients achieved 20/16 vision after one year of treatment
  • Both near-sighted and far-sighted patients reported an improvement in their reaction to bright lights and night driving glare after these laser treatments.
  • Near-sighted patients reported an improvement in their sensitivity to light
  • Surgeons are comfortable relying on predictable results from the dependable Allegretto technology
  • More than 90% of patients achieve refraction within 1 diopter of their target correction
  • The WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser has a total re-treatment rate of less than 3% of patients

Dr. Goosey has performed thousands of highly successful laser correction surgeries with the WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser, and is considered an expert even by other eye surgeons.

Advanced Features and Benefits

Accuracy

This laser allows for fully customized LASIK treatments for each patient’s individual prescription and cornea. This preserves vision quality and corrects spherical distortions, reducing glare and improving night vision. The WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser has the lowest enhancement rate (about 2%) compared to other LASIK lasers.

Eye Tracking Technology

The laser adjusts with every pulse to ensure accurate placement, using advanced eye-tracking technology that monitors the eye’s position every 4-6 milliseconds. This prevents errors and ensures safe, reliable results.

PerfectPulse Technology™

This technology ensures precise work at high speed. TheWaveLight® Allegretto system uses ultra-thin laser pulses to sculpt the cornea with accuracy, while its smart energy control system monitors the laser’s energy levels for optimal performance. The advanced eye-tracker monitors eye movements 400 times per second, ensuring precision even during the fastest movements.

Wavefront Mapping

WaveLight® Allegretto’s Wavefront Optimized® technology compensates for the natural curvature of the cornea, preserving its spherical shape and reducing issues like poor night vision, glare, and halos. The large optical zone this laser creates helps eliminate many side effects of older LASIK technology.

This compensation, in combination with the incredibly small 1mm size of the laser, produces a smooth and effective optical zone that produces what can only be described as high performance vision.

If you imagine taking a flashlight and aiming it directly at the top of a small glass ball, you can envision that the light would form a circular shape on the surface of the ball. Imagine that you were to aim the flashlight toward the side of the ball; and, you can envision that the light would form an elliptical shape and not seem as bright anymore. If you try this, you will see what is described here since the same amount of light is suddenly distributed over a larger area; and, some of the light is reflected away due to the angled surface of the glass ball.

The WaveLight® Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser produces some of the largest available optical zones. The optical zone refers to the portion of the cornea that has been corrected by the laser.

An optical zone which is larger than normal is particularly important to help those with night vision problems; and, for patients with very large pupils. If an individual has a pupil larger than the optical zone, they may experience poor peripheral vision, poor night vision, and a higher than normal incidence of “halos” and glare. This was a disappointment and frustration in the past for both the patient and the doctor, propelling it to be one of the biggest drawbacks to conventional laser correction surgery.

Now, the advanced technology of WaveLight® Allegretto in the hands of the world renown and respected cornea and laser surgery expert, Dr. John Goosey, have amazing and positive clinical results to offer you encouragement.

Better Night Vision and Glare Control

One of the main issues with older LASIK lasers was night vision problems and glare. The Wavelight Allegretto Wave Eye-Q Laser creates larger optical zones, which are necessary for reducing these side effects, especially for patients with larger pupils. Ultimately this helps eliminate glare and night vision issues.

WaveLight EX500

Only the WaveLight®EX500 Excimer Laser utilizes Wavefront Optimized®ablation profiles designed to help maintain the natural corneal shape

The WaveLight®EX500 Excimer Laser delivers the fastest ablation time of approximately 1.4 seconds per diopter

WaveLight was the first company to introduce high-speed LASIK technology in the United States. Now, the WaveLight EX500 laser takes LASIK technology one step further with one of the fastest excimer laser systems available today in the U.S. Thanks to the incredible engineering of the laser, many people can have their vision corrected in as little as eight seconds, some even more quickly. At the same time, the WaveLight EX500 laser delivers superior results with less risk and fewer side effects.
