General Information
VendorAdvanced Medical Optics, Inc. (AMO) - VISX
ItemCustomVue System: Star S4™ Excimer Laser
FeaturesIntegrating data collected by the WaveScan WaveFront System, the STAR S4 utilizes these exclusive VISX technologies to deliver precision custom ablations:
  • Variable Spot Scanning (VSS): Variable beam sizes from as small as 0.65 mm up to 6.5 mm scanned over the treatment area, conserving tissue and optimizing treatment times
  • Variable Repetition Rate (VRR): VRR delivers treatment at varying repetition rates, optimizing treatment time
  • ActiveTrak 3-D Active Eye Tracking: Captures all 3 dimensions of intra-operative eye movements—no dilation required
  • ActiveTrak Automatic Centering: Locates, and then automatically sets the treatment center to the ­center of the pupil.

Product Description
Visx Star S4™ Excimer Laser System and WaveScan Wavefront System

The VISX STAR platform's heritage of dependability and performance is well known. The STAR S4 from VISX has taken that reputation to an even higher level. Our latest excimer laser system represents the most advanced laser technology platform available today.

Latest excimer laser system has a faster chair, automatic alignment for both eyes, horizontal alignment capability, multiple treatments and offline programming. Variable Spot Beam Technology: Variable-shaped beams ranging in size from 0.65 to 6.5 millimeters are scanned and offset to allow personalized refractive treatments. Exclusive SmartBeam™ technology adjusts beam size according to treatment, minimizing corneal tissue removal. The Visx® laser utilizes the VSS technology in creating a blend zone in myopic patients receiving­1.0 diopter of vision correction. ActiveTrak™ 3-D Active Eye Tracking: The only laser system that can capture all three dimensions of intra-operative eye movements without the requirement of pupillary dilation. Larger Ablation Zones: VSS™ (Variable Spot Scanning) technology adds a blend zone that increases the ablation zone by 51%, increasing the overall diameter of the ablation to 8 millimeters. The Wavefront refractive technology provides a WavePrint™ Map--a unique fingerprint of the patient's vision that displays the refractive errors and aberrations of the eye. The VISX Star S4 Excimer Laser System and WaveScan Wavefront System combine to form the CustomVue™ system.
