Most vision correction programmes are either wavefront or aspheric (Q-Adjusted). At present, treatments are either wavefront guided which do not take the corneal shape into consideration or aspheric which does not take the wavefront into consideration. Advancements in technology have combined Corneal Wavefront Technolgy with Q-Adjustibility, "PerfectShape™ LASIK" - Corneal Wavefront Q-Adjusted LASIK takes the original corneal shape, wavefront and asphericity into consideration. This gives patients superior corneal contours, resulting in good day and night vision.

Most visual aberrations originate from the cornea. Corneal Wavefront Q-Adjusted LASIK will 'regularise' the cornea, and ablate the cornea into a "perfect" shape at the same time. "PerfectShape™ LASIK" aims to improve night vision by customising treatments to each individual's eye.
