Introducing the Safest and Fastest Eye Laser of the World for freedom from spectacles and contact lens, using the Wavelight Concerto 500 Hz Laser system which is designed to occupy a novel niche market of luxury excimer laser technology, has been launched at Shroff Eye Hospital in Mumbai. The first of its kind, the 500Hz Wavefront, one of 6 in the world and only one in India, is the latest advancement of Wavelight lasers today, the only platform approved by US FDA to improve night vision.
The Wavelight Concerto 500 Hz is by far the fastest technology which ensures uncontested treatment time, treating one Dioptre (spectacle number) in 1.6 seconds and average treatment of under 5 seconds. The patients have faster visual recovery. The treatments are perfectly accurate and well-centered and do away with possibilities of errors such as glares and haloes that still exist today with older laser systems.
"The Concerto is a high-end platform developed for the surgeon who has premium expectations for technology and service and wants more from an excimer laser than just a reliable piece of equipment” said Max Reindl, President and Chief Executive Officer of WaveLight Laser Technologie AG. "We have developed a best-of-breed laser that implements the current state of the art in terms of technology, thus setting a new standard in laser refractive surgery."
The Wavelight Concerto laser was also awarded “Design Award of the FRG 2006” for its outstanding design and exemplary ergonomics, even receiving a ‘Feng Shui’ certification. The Concerto combines safety, perfection, quality, and individuality to achieve excellent results and the highest vision quality. It is the first laser system to fully integrate diagnostic and treatment capabilities into one laser platform. (Cataract and Refractive Surgery Today 2007)
“With this technology our treatments are customized for the person’s needs, numbers and age to give a precise result. With the launch of the Concerto, people in India will have access to technology, safety and precision available only at 6 centers in the world and at one-fourth the cost at Shroff Eye Hospital. Considering our experience of 88 years in eye care, we chose to upgrade to the 500 Hz Wavefront technology, to be able to offer the best available in lasers today to our patients in India ” said Dr. Anand Shroff, LASIK expert and renowned eye-care specialist with 12 years experience at Shroff Eye
