Older Generation Technology
In the early years of LASIK eye surgery, night vision problems were a very common complaint from patients who had LASIK. The reshaping of the cornea performed by early LASIK technology quite often resulted in an unnatural corneal shape, creating visual distortions. These created distortions are commonly called glare and haloes, because they are usually much worse at night or only noticeable at night when the pupil is larger to allow more light in the eye.

Custom LASIK technology, the most significant advancement in LASIK technology since LASIK was first FDA-Approved, was designed specifically to improve the results of LASIK eye surgery by minimizing the creation of night vision halo and glare.
Next-Generation WaveLight Technology
As the first vision correction laser system engineered following the development of Custom LASIK technology, the WaveLight Allegretto laser is designed specifically to preserve the purity of your optical system and to maximize visual results in all levels of light - especially at night. With the WaveLight Allegretto, 20/20 Institute LASIK surgeons are able to customize a treatment to correct your prescription with the goal of preserving the natural shape of your cornea.

The result is more accurate visual results and better night vision. In the WaveLight Allegretto Wave Eye-Q clinical trials conducted by the FDA, many patients reported that their night vision had actually improved after LASIK surgery than compared to their glasses or contacts.
