VIDEO: Expert clarifies differences between methods of customized laser treatment

Key takeaways:

  • There are different methods of customized excimer laser treatment.
  • Wavefront-guided laser treatment can be helpful when refining refraction in cases with a limited amount of higher-order aberrations.

VILAMOURA, Portugal — At the ESCRS winter meeting, Jorge L. Alió, MD, PhD, speaks about customized excimer laser treatment using total wavefront-guided or topography-guided methods.

“The first are very useful in refining refraction in special cases with a limited amount of higher-order aberrations, and the second use the topography information in order to provide adequate guidance to the treatment for large irregularities,” he said.
