Nidek EC-5000

 
     

The Nidek EC-5000 laser is designed to reshape the cornea to reduce or eliminate nearsightedness, with or without astigmatism. It has been approved for the reduction and elimination of myopia in the low, moderate and high ranges.

Why we've chosen the Nidek EC-5000:

 
    Nidel EC-5000 excimer laser
   

The Nidek EC-5000, one of the first lasers to gain FDA approval for use in the United States, is one of the most popular lasers worldwide and is the laser of choice for hundreds of top surgeons in the United States and Canada.

  • The Nidek laser's patented technology offers a 7.5 mm transition zone, one of the largest available, meaning it has the range to safely and effectively treat patients with large pupils. If patients with big pupils are treated with a laser with a narrow transition zone, they are at an increased risk for glare and halos following surgery.
  • This laser produces an extremely smooth surface on the cornea after the procedure. Smoother ablations, as they're known, promote faster healing and result in better vision.
  • The Nidek EC-5000 has an eye tracker that stops the laser treatment if your pupil moves outside a specified zone.
  • The Nidek EC-5000's illumination and aiming beams provide surgeons precise control of the laser beam delivery arm.
  • The Nidek offers advanced computerized performance. During the procedure, the computer monitors the system parameters continuously.
