The EX500 laser also uses a wavefront-guided technology that allows the surgeon to customize the treatment to each patient’s individual eye shape. This helps to ensure that the patient achieves the best possible vision results. It is used by surgeons around the world to achieve excellent vision results in a variety of patients.
- Technology: The EX500 emits 500 laser pulses per second for an extremely quick treatment. One of the fastest excimer lasers available, with a treatment time of 1.4 seconds per diopter. The laser is also equipped with PerfectPulse technology, which ensures that each laser pulse is precisely calibrated. This helps to improve the accuracy of the treatment and reduce the risk of side effects.
- More accurate treatment: The EX500 is outfitted with a multi-dimensional eye tracker that calibrates the position of your eye over 1000 times a second, leading to the most consistent treatment possible. Coupled with the improved rate of the laser, these developments greatly lessen any chance of a complication at all.
- Personalized Treatment Profiles: The EX500 is equipped to perform both the proven Wavefront-optimized and next-generation Contoura technology. The Alcon EX500 uses wavefront-optimized technology to automatically compensate for the curvature of your cornea and can also This helps to reduce the risk of side effects such as halos and glare. With Contoura LASIK, the laser takes several topographical images of the eye and analyzes the 22,000 unique elevation points on the cornea in order to recommend a custom treatment.
- Safe and Effective: The Alcon EX500 is FDA-approved and considered to be a safe and effective treatment for refractive errors. It has been used to treat millions of patients worldwide, with an extremely high success rate.
