Visiomed Eye and Laser Clinic have a tradition of world-class eye care in a friendly environment. Their passion and dedication enhanced and expanded their skills, ensuring that Visiomed stayed at the forefront of medical innovation. Their task is to constantly review the surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction of any other surgeons working under the Visiomed banner.

If you have astigmatism, you experience overall blurry vision, shadowing, or distortion of objects. Cataracts are a clouding of the lens that occurs as we age and causes blurry or hazy vision. Our clients continue to experience an unparalleled combination of technology and surgical experience, making our clinic, our team of expert surgeons and dedicated nursing staff most favoured by referring optometrists, as well as clients in need of laser eye surgery as well as those who have had surgery previously.

It uses invisible ultraviolet light pulses to remove precise amounts of corneal tissue (the transparent outer coat of the eye that helps focus light to create an image) from the eye to reduce or eliminate farsightedness, short-sightedness and astigmatism (distorted vision). Not only is it fast during wavefront laser eye surgery, it is also extremely accurate. Wavefront-optimized technology is also used to create a large optical zone by automatically compensating for the curvature of the cornea. The speed of our laser technology enables us to correct one diopter of vision within just two seconds. This enables the surgeon and nursing staff to prepare you and your eyes for the procedure and feed all relevant data about your eyes into the laser machine. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled for the next day and you will be able to return to work on the day thereafter. Every single laser pulse is completely controlled from the moment it is created to where it meets the eye. Each ultra-thin laser pulse is used to sculpt the corneal surface of the eye with the utmost precision. If for any reason you should move your eyes rapidly or look away, the laser will automatically stop and wait for the eye to return to the correct position for further treatment. Wavefront technology is used to measure both lower and higher order aberrations (visual imperfections in the eye’s optical system). By addressing all aberrations, we are able to offer the laser eye treatment that will give you the very best results possible. A grid pattern of rays of light are passed through your eye using a computerised wavefront measuring instrument (the WaveLight Analyzer). As the light waves travel through your eye’s optical system, the imperfections in the eye distort the grid pattern. With an extraordinarily high resolution of the cornea resulting from 22 000 measuring points and a large placido disc, the ALLEGRO Topolyzer is an incredibly accurate tool for the examination of the most complicated vision disorders and is able to accurately identify Keratoconus and it also has a pupillometry reading. As the WaveLight Allegretto is the most advanced laser available for laser eye surgery and the only laser to have been built right from the start for CUSTOM procedures, it is also the only laser currently ready to accept data from the Pentacam device to add another custom laser eye surgery procedure to our options.
