The ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer laser, built by , represents a new generation in laser vision correction. It is the first new laser that has received US regulatory approval since 1999, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® incorporates wavefront principles into the treatment and customizes it to the patients natural corneal shape. Operating at very high speed, the average treatment takes less than 15 seconds and the system's unique PerfectPulse Technology™ ensures that every laser pulse is accurately controlled while it is applied to the eye. ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer Laser System The WaveLight ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Excimer Laser was designed based on an ideal that was once only an imagination: a system with shortened surgery times, innovative and reliable eye tracking and a clear ergonomic concept. Built with pioneering Wavefront Optimized® and unique PerfectPulse Technology®, this refractive laser platform aims to protect quality of vision while providing unsurpassed safety. Repetition rate: 200 Hz Utilizes Wavefront Optimized® ablation profiles in laser vision correction procedures PerfectPulse Technology® provides intelligent laser pulse control Performs wavefront-guided treatments Spot size 0.95 mm, Gaussian beam profile Everyone's eyes have uniquely shaped corneas and prescription needs. That's why developed the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® -an advanced Excimer laser system designed to give each patient the best possible result. The ALLEGRETTO WAVE® by is distinctively different from all other Excimer laser systems. It combines Wavefront Optimized® & unique PerfectPulse Technology® together with innovative reliable active fast-track eye tracking and a small spot Gaussian laser beam. These features were designed to increase the accuracy of corneal shaping. Our eyes are constantly making small, rapid movements that are beyond our control. Computer simulators have shown that eye movement during LASIK can compromise laser beam placement accuracy. this can cause irregularities in the corneal surface., introducing new refractive errors and resulting in sub-optimal visual acuity. The ALLEGRETTO WAVE® by accurately tracks eye movements during surgery so you do not have to worry about holding your eye still. The tracker adjusts and realigns itself between each laser pulse., tracking the position of your eye continuously, guiding placement of the laser beam with pinpoint accuracy. Guided by Wavefront Optimized® & unique PerfectPulse Technology®, the small spot laser beam (less than 1 mm wide) reshapes the cornea, removing corneal tissue smaller than the width of a single human hair. This combination offers our patients state-of-the-art Excimer laser technology.
