Laser Vision Correction That’s Truly Personalized
There has never been a laser vision correction procedure that offers the precision and accuracy of the Advanced CustomVue Procedure. Since 2003, the Advanced CustomVue Procedure has continued to
earn FDA approvals to treat the broadest range of vision imperfections possible, including mild to severe nearsightedness, farsightedness and all types of astigmatism.
An Individualized Treatment
The Advanced CustomVueProcedure begins with an individual vision evaluation using our WaveScan
System which creates a map of your eyes’ unique imperfections. The Advanced CustomVueProcedure uses the digital information from that map to design a custom treatment for each of your eyes. This WaveScanmap information is then transferred to the STAR S4 IRExcimer Laser. The laser uses this information to apply a cool laser beam that reshapes your cornea to create a new curvature and correct your vision.
Outstanding Results
Clinical studies presented to the FDA show that the Advanced CustomVueProcedure can potentially produce better vision than is possible with glasses or contact lenses.* In fact, clinical studies have shown that more patients were satisfied or very satisfied with their vision after the Advanced CustomVueProcedure than they were before with glasses or contact lenses.*
Other notable outcomes for specific indications show:*
• Ninety eight percent of mild to moderate nearsighted patients could see 20/20 or better one year
after treatment
• One hundred percent of mild to moderate nearsighted patients could pass a driving test without glasses or contact lenses one year after treatment

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Laser assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) can only be performed by a trained physician and is specified for reduction or elimination of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism as indicated within the product labeling. Laser refractive surgery is contraindicated for patients: a) with collagen vascular, autoimmune, or immunodeficiency diseases; b) who are pregnant or nursing women; c) with signs of keratoconus or abnormal corneal topography; d) who are taking one or both of the following medications: Isotretinoin (Accutane®*) and Amiodarone hydrochloride (Cordarone®†). Potential side effects to laser refractive surgery may include glare, dry eye, as well as other visual anomalies. LASIK requires the use of a microkeratome that cuts a flap on the surface of the cornea, potential side effects may include flap related complications. Consult with your eye care professional and Patient Information Booklet regarding the potential risks and benefits for laser refractive surgery, results may vary for each individual patient.
