Q.
What if I close or move my eye during my laser eye treatment?
A.
Drops are used to eliminate the blink reflex and an eyelid holder keeps your eye open during you laser eye treatment. There is a very sophisticated eye tracker which follows your eye as it moves during your treatment. If your eye moves out of line the laser tracks the slightest of movements and will not action.

I previously used the Nidek system but found that the results were less than optimal in many patients. Since using the STAR S4 IR™ Excimer Laser System at Optical Express, I say with confidence that this technology is the best and out-performs any other system, including the Nidek. The results are phenomenal.
