Wavefront Aberrometer


Boyd Vision Centre is proud to use the CRS-Master wavefront analysis unit designed by Carl Zeiss Meditec (the same manufacturer as our laser, the MEL-80) and made in Germany.

A wavefront aberrometer measures any imperfections in the focusing of images inside the eye. Most eyes can benefit from a customized laser treatment to increase the quality of focus as light travels from the front of the eye to the retina. Using the wavefront analysis, the information is input into the laser’s computer to produce a custom treatment.

Some wavefront analysers use a fairly low level of resolution. The CRS-Master uses the highest resolution of the wavefront analysers available for use by laser eye surgeons. By recording such a high level of information, any customized treatment using the wavefront map produced by the CRS-Master is as precise as possible.

As an added benefit, some people who underwent laser eye surgery using older lasers are able to have additional treatment utilizing the wavefront analysis and improving the quality of vision (especially noticeable at night).
