NewView Laser Eye and Jacqueline D. Griffiths, M.D. Now Offer a Personalized Approach to Laser Vision Correction with the Advanced Capabilities of the VISX® WavePrint™ System
Reston, VA – Jacqueline D. Griffiths, M.D., Medical Director of NewView Laser Eye, Inc. in Reston, Virginia now offers her patients the most advanced, personalized treatment in laser vision correction with the VISX WavePrint System.
Each person’s vision is unique. Now, with the WavePrint System, for the first time doctors can develop a laser vision plan based on your personal vision needs. The WavePrint Map, a "fingerprint of your vision," obtains a precise and detailed analysis of your entire optical system. "I am pleased to be able to offer my patients the first truly personalized approach to laser vision correction with the VISX WavePrint System," said Dr. Griffiths. "The data available with this new technology not only personalizes treatment, but also enables me to immediately and accurately assess whether a patient is a good candidate for laser vision correction." The WavePrint System incorporates a host of VISX technologies, including the WavePrint Map, the 3D ActiveTrak™, and Variable Spot Scanning* (VSS™). The 3D ActiveTrak is the only system with three-dimensional tracking that follows every involuntary movement of the eye during treatment. VSS allows for a larger treatment area, offering the physician greater flexibility in developing a more personalized laser vision procedure, when pupil size is a consideration. The results are very impressive and there is the potential for sharper vision and improved night vision over contacts and glasses. Utilizing this new technology, doctors have been able to provide patients with superior sharpness and quality of vision with fewer complications. This translates into higher patient satisfaction. *The VISX laser utilizes the VSS technology in creating a blend zone in myopic patients receiving = -1.0 diopter of vision correction.
