Custom Eyes LASIK is an advanced form of laser eye surgery designed to correct vision problems with a high degree of precision. Unlike traditional LASIK, which follows a one-size-fits-all approach, Custom Eyes LASIK uses detailed eye measurements to create a tailored treatment plan for each patient. This involves using sophisticated mapping technology to capture the unique characteristics of each eye, ensuring that the laser can be precisely guided for optimal results. This personalised approach ensures better outcomes and can address a broader range of vision issues, including higher-order aberrations that standard LASIK may not correct. By targeting these specific imperfections, Custom Eyes LASIK can significantly enhance visual clarity and reduce issues like glare and halos, providing a more comprehensive solution for those with complex vision needs.
LASIK surgery has undergone significant advancements since its inception, evolving from a basic procedure to a highly sophisticated one. Initially, LASIK procedures relied on a standardized map to guide the laser in reshaping the cornea, which was a groundbreaking approach at the time. This method, while effective for many, had its limitations as it couldn’t account for the unique anatomical variations present in each individual’s eye. As a result, some patients experienced less than optimal outcomes due to these unaddressed differences.
The introduction of Custom LASIK technology marked a revolutionary shift in the field of vision correction. This advanced technique employs wavefront-guided technology, which meticulously maps the unique imperfections and irregularities in each eye. This method allows for a more precise and tailored correction of vision problems by capturing detailed data about how light travels through the eye. The wavefront-guided approach not only enhances the accuracy of the procedure but also significantly improves the overall success rates and patient satisfaction. Patients benefit from clear vision and a reduction in visual disturbances such as glare and halos, which were more common with the earlier standardised approach. This innovation has transformed LASIK into a more personalised and effective solution, catering to the specific needs of each patient and setting a new standard in the field of refractive surgery.
Custom LASIK is a highly specialised procedure that begins with a comprehensive eye examination using state-of-the-art wavefront technology. The first step in this process involves a detailed measurement of how light travels through your eye. This is achieved by capturing intricate details about the eye’s shape and identifying any existing imperfections. This precise data collection is essential, as it serves as the foundation for constructing a detailed map of your eye. This map is crucial because it will guide the laser during the surgical procedure.
In the subsequent step, during the surgery itself, a femtosecond laser is employed with great care to create a thin, precise flap in the cornea. This flap is then gently lifted, revealing the underlying corneal tissue. This exposure is necessary for the next phase of the procedure.
Following the creation of the flap, an excimer laser is used to reshape the cornea. This laser is meticulously guided by the previously created 3D map, ensuring that the reshaping process is accurate and tailored to correct any specific vision issues you may have. The excimer laser works by removing microscopic amounts of the corneal tissue, thereby altering the cornea’s shape to improve vision.
Once the reshaping is complete, the corneal flap is carefully repositioned back to its original place, where it naturally adheres without the need for stitches. Remarkably, the eye begins its healing process almost immediately after the procedure, initiating the path to improved vision. This rapid healing is facilitated by the precision of the procedure and the body’s natural regenerative capabilities.
Custom LASIK offers numerous benefits over traditional LASIK, particularly for people with complex vision issues. It can correct common refractive errors such as –10 to -12 diopters (D) for nearsightedness (myopia) and +6 D for farsightedness (hyperopia), with astigmatism correction up to 6 D with greater precision.
Additionally, Custom LASIK can address higher-order aberrations, which are minor optical imperfections that can cause glare, halos, and other visual disturbances. This leads to not only clearer vision but also improved night vision and overall visual quality.
If you opt for Custom LASIK, the procedure will generally take less than 30 minutes for both eyes. Since it utilises the world’s fastest and safest laser, the laser treatment time takes less than 10 seconds per eye; however, it can marginally vary based on individual cases. During the surgery, you’ll be given numbing eye drops to ensure comfort, and your eye will be held open with a speculum to prevent blinking.
After the creation and lifting of the corneal flap, the laser reshaping takes place, guided by the detailed map of your eye. Once the reshaping is complete, the flap is repositioned. You may experience mild discomfort or blurry vision for a few hours post-surgery, but most patients notice an improvement in vision almost immediately.
Custom LASIK is an excellent option for many individuals, but it may not be suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates are typically over 18 years old, have a stable glass prescription for at least one year, and are in good overall health. Certain conditions, such as severe dry eyes or thin corneas, may disqualify you from being a candidate.
A thorough consultation with an eye care specialist will help determine whether Custom LASIK is the best option for your needs. They will evaluate your eye health and vision requirements to make an informed recommendation.

Custom Eyes LASIK is considered safe, with a low risk of complications.
The laser treatment takes less than 10 seconds per eye, while the whole procedure lasts only about 5-10 minutes, and most patients experience significant improvement in vision within 24 hours.
Recovery time is relatively short, with many returning to normal activities within a few days.
Results from Custom Eyes LASIK are generally permanent, although some patients may require touch-up procedures years later.
While many achieve 20/20 vision or better, some might still need glasses for specific tasks.
