The hospital, under the guidance of Matthew Edwards, have invested heavily in the most advanced technology available in refractive surgery.

 Carl Zeiss Mel 80 excimer laser

The Sheffield Vision Centre has invested in a German-built MEL-80 excimer laser designed by the world renowned laser manufacturer, Carl Zeiss.

The Carl Zeiss MEL-80 laser features the latest advances in laser technology. 

 The MEL-80 has been proven to be the most accurate laser in the world according to FDA trials.  There are several reasons the MEL-80 is capable of such outstanding results.

• Small spot size
• Vertical, horizontal and rotational eye tracking
• Individual iris recognition
• High frequency laser delivery
• Wavefront Aberrometry with Carl Zeiss CRS-Master
 

Carl Zeiss WASCA Wavefront Analysis


All potential laser patients undergo Wavefront Analysis at their free consultation. The only way to decide whether wavefront guided LASIK or LASEK will be superior to standard treatment is to undertake this evaluation. Bausch and Lomb Orbscan and Zeiss Visante examination are other facilities used for accurate pre-treatment corneal measurement.
