Products:
From the beginning, VISX's success has been based upon unparalleled Research and Development efforts in the field of Laser Vision Correction technology. Today these efforts are represented by the VISX WavePrint™ System consisting of: The STAR S3™ Excimer Laser System and the WaveScan Wavefront™ System.
The VISX STAR S3 Excimer Laser System:
The VISX STAR™ platform's heritage of dependability and performance is well known. The STAR S3 from VISX has taken that reputation to an even higher level. Our latest excimer laser system has a faster chair, automatic alignment for both eyes, horizontal alignment capability, multiple treatments and offline programming, and the following exciting features: Variable Spot Beam Technology: Variable-shaped beams ranging in size from 0.65 to 6.5 millimeters are scanned* and offset to allow personalized refractive treatments. Exclusive SmartBeam™ technology adjusts beam size according to treatment, minimizing corneal tissue removal. *The VISX® laser utilizes the VSS technology in creating a blend zone in myopic patients receiving1.0 diopter of vision correction. ActiveTrak™ 3-D Active Eye Tracking: The only laser system that can capture all three dimensions of intra-operative eye movements without the requirement of pupillary dilation. Larger Ablation Zones: VSS™ (Variable Spot Scanning) technology adds a blend zone that increases the ablation zone by 51%, increasing the overall diameter of the ablation to 8 millimeters. The WaveScan Wavefront System:
This Wavefront refractive technology provides a WavePrint™ Map--a unique fingerprint of the patient's vision. Giving the doctor a precise, more detailed visual analysis that can help provide a personalized Laser Vision Correction treatment.
