What is LASIK?

LASIK is a safe and effective procedure that corrects nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It works by reshaping the cornea to focus light properly on the retina, improving your vision. At Precision Eyes, Dr. Giltner performs LASIK using the advanced Allegretto Wave Eye-Q Laser, ensuring precision and optimal results. The procedure typically takes only 15–20 minutes.

Does LASIK hurt?

Patients receive a mild sedative to help them relax, along with numbing eye drops for anesthesia. Most report minimal to no discomfort during or after the procedure. Due to the mild sedative you will need to have a driver with you on the day of your  procedure.

What can I expect from LASIK?

Most patients notice improved vision within one day to one month after the procedure. Many patients achieve 20/20 vision, significantly reducing or eliminating their need for glasses or contact lenses.

When can I return to work?

After  LASIK , you will need to go home and rest, as sleep is very beneficial for healing. Rest your eyes for a few hours following the procedure. Most patients can return to work the next day.

Do you offer custom LASIK?

At Precision Eyes, we are proud to offer only custom LASIK, a procedure designed to deliver highly personalized vison correction. This approach ensures that every aspect of your treatment is tailored specifically for you.

Behind the laser: How the Technology Works

PerfectPulse Technology

PerfectPulse Technology™ is an innovative approach to corrective eye surgery, designed to maximize speed, precision, and safety with the Allegretto Wave® laser. This technology uses smart energy control to adjust the laser pulse energy from creation to delivery, ensuring consistency and accuracy. With high-speed eye tracking that monitors eye movement 400 times per second, PerfectPulse Technology™ delivers each laser pulse exactly where it’s needed, achieving precise and reliable vision correction.

Eye Tracking and Speed Technology

Due to the remarkable speed of both the eye and the Allegretto Wave® procedure, the laser beam needs to be constantly and minutely adjusted to the position of the eye at any given time. Every 4-6 milliseconds, the eye’s location is measured, and the internal mirrors of the Allegretto Wave® are automatically aligned. Right before the pulse is released, a second check is made to confirm that the eye has not moved. This happens 400 times every second, once for every laser pulse. If at any time, the eye moves too quickly to be measured or moves out of range, the laser will stop and wait for the eye to move back into position.

Optimized Night Vision with Wavefront Technology

In low-light or dark conditions, the pupil expands to allow more light into the eye. Laser eye correction must account for this to avoid issues like poor night vision, glare, or halos around bright lights, such as oncoming headlights. The Allegretto Wave® laser uses wavefront-optimized technology to create a larger optical zone, matching the eye’s natural pupil size in darkness. This approach significantly reduces night vision problems, glare, and halos, providing clearer vision in all lighting conditions.
