Our Technology
Since LASIK became a household word in the late 90s, advances in technology have exceeded all expectations, with some of the lasers themselves becoming almost household words.
Intralase is one name you have probably heard, for good reason; Intralase was the first laser approved by the FDA to replace the vibrating hand-held microkeratome blade for the flap-creation step of LASIK. Intralase is the laser of choice for most US LASIK surgeons performing genuine all-laser LASIK.
Another name you may know and will certainly hear more about is Allegretto Wave.
Since Blue Laser Group introduced Northeast Georgia’s first Allegretto Wave laser we have been constantly amazed by the Allegretto’s superior results. Many patients who would have needed two treatments with other lasers have achieved 20/20 vision (or better) with just one treatment with the Allegretto’s advanced technology.
What is Advanced Wave Front technology?
Your eyes are as unique as your fingerprints and the most precise laser vision correction technology addresses these highly individual characteristics. Wave front technology captures each eye’s unique imperfections with far greater accuracy than ever before, translates that information into digital treatment instructions and sends them directly to the Allegretto Wave Excimer Laser System. 
What does all this mean to you? It means highly personalized treatment of the corneal conditions that been creating your vision problems, plus the confidence that your surgeon is using the most advanced state-of-the art technologies to help you attain your vision goals.
Investment in state-of-the-art technologies such as these is a factual measure of commitment to results. A full-time independent LASIK surgeon like Dr. Richard Blue, committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for his patients, will choose the technology that meets his exacting standards. He won’t compromise those standards by less precise but less expensive equipment.
In the final analysis, your successful LASIK outcome depends most on the skill, commitment and experience of the surgeon who performs your procedure. Once you have satisfied yourself that you are in the best possible hands, trust your surgeon to use the best possible tools to bring your vision into the 21st Century.
