George R. Walters, M.D.
It is important to understand that not all LASIK practices use the same technology. There is not a national standard or law that says LASIK should only be performed with the best technology available.
Your firmest assurance of achieving the best vision possible is choosing a skilled surgeon who is using the most advanced technology available. Since Waco Custom LASIK & Cataract Center is privately owned, Dr. Walters has always been free to choose the best technology for his patients.
Each generation of newer technology solves issues that earlier technology could not address. The lasers used today at Waco Custom LASIK & Cataract Center achieve significantly better results, with greater patient comfort, than earlier systems.
The Visx S4 CustomVue technology, when used with the IntraLase laser, produces the best results Dr. Walters has ever achieved.
LASIK Technology -
Excimer Laser Technology
Earlier excimer lasers achieved startling results, but they were occasionally accompanied by night vision issues and their technical limitations meant that some patients could not be considered good candidates which prevented many would-be LASIK patients from enjoying the benefits of clear, natural lens free vision.
Dr. Walters employs one of the most advanced excimer lasers, the VisX S4.
What does this mean to you? It means that the state-of-the-art technology available at Waco Custom LASIK & Cataract Center can treat the unique characteristics of your eye that create your myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism and resolve them rapidly and with the highest accuracy possible.
