The WavePrint Map provides the most complete picture of your eye ever available. This allows your doctor to plan a treatment that is personalized exactly to your unique eye.

Your vision is unique -- as personal as your fingerprint or your DNA. WaveScan, featuring the WavePrint Map, provides the most complete picture of your eye ever available.

The WavePrint Map shows us the refractive state of your eye. The WaveScan measures the way light travels through your eye and compares it to the way light would travel through a "perfect" eye. This determines the refractive errors or aberrations of the eye.

This painless process allows your doctor to plan a vision correction treatment that is personalized exactly to your unique eye.

Your Horizon Eye Care professional will use this information to plan a personalized treatment for you.
