The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the VISX CustomVue procedure
for correcting nearsightedness and astigmatism.
The following are some of the FDA clinical study results. One year after the VISX
CustomVue procedure*:
- 100% could pass a driving test without glasses or contact lenses
- 98% could see 20/20 or better without glasses or contact lenses
- 70% could see better than 20/20 without glasses or contact lenses
Four times as many participants were very satisfied with their night vision after
CustomVue, compared to their night vision with their glasses or contact lenses.
Overall, many participants were more satisfied with their quality of vision after
the VISX CustomVue procedure than before the procedure with use of glasses or contacts.
Uncorrected visual acuity is the measurement of how well you see without the aid
of glasses or contact lenses. Quality of vision refers to not only what you see,
but also how well you see under a variety of conditions, such as driving at night.
* FDA clinical results for Low to Moderate Myopia, Up to -6.0 D MRSE with or without
astigmatism up to -3.0 DC
