Zyoptix Eye Treatment Procedure
Advance VisionCare's Zyoptix system for personalised vision treatments uses the latest version of the tried and tested Bausch & Lomb Technolas z100 laser. We offer Zyoptix to all suitable patients, because it offers superior quality of vision compared to standard LASIK. This laser has been specifically designed for customised laser eye treatments and consistently achieves a high standard of vision.
The additional diagnostic screening benefits of wavefront technology has allowed patient improved selection and personalised treatment to a level never imagined before. Zyoptix provides the surgoen with so much more detailed information on which to base decisions about your treatment.
Zyoptix means that laser eye treatment is now unique to each eye. With Zyoptix, treatment is designed specifically to treat your individual vision errors
How it works
Wavefront was first developed by astrophysicists and has now been applied to Zyoptix. It provides the most technologically advanced measurement not just of standard visual but also of scattered light errors known as 'aberrations'. Zyoptix software combines data from two different types of diagnostic equipment, then programmes the laser with your unique treatment, based on this data. Data is collected to assess the structure of your cornea (called topography).
Data is also collected from a measurement of your optical system using the advanced wavefront technology - a measurement not normally taken with Standard LASIK treatments.
Aberrometry
Wavefront technology or aberrometry is based on the principle that if an eye had no imperfections at all, light passed through it would not scatter. But because no eye is perfect, light scatters to form distinct patterns - called a wavefront. Wavefront technology measures your personal/individual patterns and thus allows the surgeon to plan a treatment that exactly matches individual vision errors.
Your wavefront will be measured by the market-leading aberrometer, the Zywave Aberrometer from Bausch & Lomb. The Zywave aberrometer measures the eye from the centre to the outer edges (the periphery) of the pupil. This is especially important, because at night your pupils open up and more light is scattered in the periphery of the pupils.
Topography of Cornea
The Orbscan IIz topographer analyses the physical shape/contours of your cornea and allows our surgeon to decide if it has a suitable shape, is healthy and thick enough for treatment. It is the only topographer currently available that measures the shape of both the front and back surface of the entire cornea (other systems only measure the front surface) and can therefore provide a complete picture of the thickness of cornea. The Orbscan IIz is able to provide such high precision information as it captures data within seconds from 9000 points on the cornea during each.
