title: Alcon CustomCornea platform with LADARWave and LADARVision.
abstract: The Alcon CustomCornea platform is a basis of refractive surgery using a wavefront sensor (LADARWave) to provide the desired ablation profile, and an excimer laser(LADARVision) to administer it to the eye. These two systems are linked using identical software features to align the wavefront measurement and the ablation such that there fractive correction is delivered to the correct location on the eye. The technology behind these two systems and the clinical outcomes achieved using CustomCornea will be discussed.
