Technology
The Sebban Eye Centre uses the latest technology for laser eye surgery and corneal surgery.
Award-winning SCHWIND AMARIS® laser
The Sebban Eye Centre uses the SCHWIND AMARIS®, one of the best eye surgical lasers on the market today.
Our patients receive the highest standard of care and benefit from our laser's advanced features including:
› 500 Hertz ablation speed delivers an ideal balance between the total number of laser pulses and the energy delivered, resulting in optimum smoothing of the cornea
› 1,050 Hertz turbo eye tracker which ensures precise positioning of each laser pulse and compensation for any eye movements
› Intelligent Thermal Effect Control (ITEC) prevents damage to the surrounding corneal tissue during ablation (gentle removal of the epithelium)
› SCHWIND CAM software modules make it possible to customise individual treatments to suit individual patient needs
› TransPRK "no touch" treatment is performed using the SCHWIND AMARIS® laser. It is the only surface treatment where the epithelium is removed with the laser, avoiding the need for surgical instruments to make contact with the eye. More information on TransPRK
Customised Wavefront Treatment
In order to treat higher order aberrations, we may recommend a treatment with the help of Wavefront technology. Every eye is different and each has its own pattern, much like a fingerprint, called the Wavefront. By creating a three dimensional map of the eye, irregularities can be better detected and the laser can correct the finest asymmetrical distortions of the eye.
Treating Presbyopia with PresbyMAX
With the SCHWIND AMARIS® laser, the most advanced PresbyMAX® software is now available.
With PresbyMAX it is possible for the first time to correct short sightedness, long sightedness and astigmatism together with presbyopia. The near vision of presbyopic patients is significantly improved with less dependence on reading glasses. Both eyes are treated together, creating multi-focal vision in each eye.
