What exactly is the LenSx® Laser?
While our eyes all share the same basic anatomy, your eyes are totally unique when it comes to their size, depth, curvature and other key features. The LenSx® Laser with ASCENDTM Technology allows your surgeon to plan and perform a procedure that’s completely customized for each of your eyes.
For more than a decade, femtosecond lasers have helped surgeons perform LASIK with unparalleled precision and accuracy. Now the LenSx® Laser with ASCENDTM Technology brings advanced accuracy and reproducibility to cataract surgery.
