The laser vision apparatus and control method is a patented device used in controlling a laser vision correction system.
This includes a space for storing a corrective instruction reference corresponding to an encoded instruction measured by a module separate from the medium.
This corrective instruction is customized, encoded and executable by a laser platform used to correct visual problems of the patients.
In layman's terms therefore,this laser vision apparatus and control method tailors the needs of the patient's eye conditions, its measurements and specifications, and "directs" or"guides" the laser to the appropriate corresponding treatment.
This patent is used mainly for the laser vision correction procedures commonly used to treat patients suffering from disorders of the eye such as myopia or nearsightedness, hyperopia or farsightedness and astigmatism.
Although it's the surgeons who treat the patient, it's still the laser's "job" to carry out the ultimate treatment for the diagnosed visual defect.
It's the laser manufacturer's job, also, to program the laser with the necessary algorithms and measurements that will enable to the laser to effectively carry out the required procedure.
In the end, it's still the laser's hardware and software programs that does the trick.
The hardware contains a control system that is computer linked and utilizes a software to calculate the appropriate laser shot based on the measurements entered by the surgeon.
This platform also includes mechanism in the form of steering optics and beams that will target the appropriate spot in the cornea in reaction to the instructions entered by the surgeon.
This laser vision apparatus and control method really seems like a "smart" machine, able to carry out its "duties" as per the instructions and measurements entered by the attending surgeon.
The laser vision apparatus and control method thus process the information and executes the necessary treatment.
There are generally two types of laser eye surgery, two umbrella terms which encompass most of the laser vision correction surgical procedures known today.
These are PRK or photorefractive keratectomy and Lasik or Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis.
PRK is a procedure involved a laser to remove very minute bits of tissue from the cornea to reshape it and enable it to focus better.
Custom Lasik, or wavefront Lasik takes 3-dimensional measurements of your eye to determine how your eye analyzes images it captures.
A laser is then used to shape the front parts of the cornea.
This wavefront technology is more precise than the other kinds of lasers.
Most patients prefer Lasik to PRK as the procedure is less painful and recovery time is not as long as that for PRK.
