Successful laser eye surgery depends on the high quality of your surgeon and his equipment. Treat yourself to Eyesite’s premium service – an experienced Lasik surgeon and the magnificent Alcon Wavelight Refractive Suite: the FS200 Femtosecond Laser for flap creation followed by the superfast EX500 Excimer Laser, incorporating Wavefront Correction, to reshape the cornea.
The FS200 Femtosecond laser is a fourth generation device that builds on experience from earlier lasers and represents the finest technology available. It focuses thousands of tiny laser spots inside the cornea, the spots joining together to create a perfect continuous cut. This ‘no blade’ technique produces a greatly improved flap, more precise in depth and smoothness than was ever possible with older, mechanical devices.
The Alcon Wavelight Refractive Suite – FS200 Femtosecond Laser
The world class Alcon Wavelight EX500 Excimer laser incorporates numerous technical advances including multi-dimensional eyetracking, online pachymetry (measurements of cornea thickness made during the treatment), superfast small flying-spot ablations (‘Perfect Pulse Technology’) and three customisable Wavefront Correction platforms. This is the fastest excimer laser in the world!
Wavefront Correction is a major advance in laser treatment. The Wavelight EX500 excimer laser has three Wavefront platforms- ‘Wavefront Optimized and ‘Wavefront Corrected for distance vision and ‘Custom Q’ for reading vision – one of which will be customised for the precise needs of your eyes. All my patients receive advanced Wavefront technology. The outcome is greatly enhanced quality of vision and patient satisfaction. For example problems with older systems such as glare when driving at night are reduced. In fact many patients see better with Wavefront technology than they ever did with glasses or contact lenses!

Read a detailed description of how laser eye surgery treatments work
This lady consulted me in 2009. She was short sighted with some astigmatism. Her glasses prescription was right eye: -2.50/-0.25×180 and left eye: -2.25/-0.75×180. She had bilateral Lasik with the Ziemer LDV femtosecond laser for flap creation followed by the Wavelight Concerto excimer laser customised using the Wavefront Optimised platform, for maximum quality of vision.
She says:
I had been to see two Laser Clinics before being referred to Simon Levy by a colleague. Simon was extremely professional and knowledgeable and I felt at ease straightaway.
Meeting and discussing my surgery with the same consultant that performed the surgery was essential for me and something that no-one else could offer. I knew exactly what was going to be done on the day, how I would feel and what to expect afterwards.
It is now over a year since I had my treatment and my eye sight is still perfect – I am delighted with the results!
