The fastest excimer laser ALCON EX 500
The WaveLight® Refractive Suite is the fastest refractive surgery platform.
Built on trusted WaveLight® excimer technology, the WaveLight® EX500 Excimer Laser is the next leap forward in fast, accurate refractive laser treatments. Its unique performance is a prerequisite to safe and permanent diopter removal.
Built for Speed and Superb Outcomes
The WaveLight® Refractive Suite is the fastest refractive surgery platform:- The WaveLight® EX500 Excimer Laser is the only excimer laser to operate at 500 Hz, with an average treatment time of approximately 1.4 seconds per diopter
Precisely Focused on Accuracy
With a powerful 1050 Hz-type multi-dimensional eye tracker, synchronized at 500 Hz, the WaveLight® EX500 Excimer Laser offers safety and exceptional precision:- Movement tracking with just 2 milliseconds of latency
- Dynamic pupil tracking from 1.5 mm to 8.0 mm
Optimized Shot Distribution
The WaveLight® EX500 Excimer Laser maintains a high pulse frequency with a minimized thermal load:
Only 1 pulse in 5 is allowed to overlap
Optimizes temporal and spatial shot distribution
Additional pulses are sent to the periphery to compensate for energy loss
Reduces the potential for nighttime glare
Designed with Efficiency in Mind
The WaveLight® EX500 Excimer Laser workstation has been ergonomically designed to provide enhanced information and usability throughout the refractive procedure:
- Integrated heads-up display
- Fiber slit projector with LED light source
- Increased working distance of 25 cm
- Standard, high-resolution video system
- Built-in, non-contact, online pachymetry
