Wavefront technology has been used in astronomy and imaging technology to improve imaging, contrast, and definition for decades. Its use in laser eye surgery started in the late 1990’s when it was recognized that correcting more than just nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism could improve how well someone can see after
their LASIK surgery, especially in low light conditions.

High Contrast Vision Beyond 20/20 is a Reality for Many with CustomVision LASIK

For many people considering LASIK, the goal is simple: see 20/20 without glasses or contacts. But with today’s most advanced technology, vision correction can often go beyond basic 20/20 clarity.

At Stahl Vision, CustomVision™ LASIK is designed to deliver high-contrast, high-definition vision by using highly detailed measurements of each patient’s unique visual system.

What Is CustomVision™ LASIK?

CustomVision™ LASIK is an advanced refinement of modern laser vision correction techniques, including:

  • Wavefront-Optimized LASIK

  • Topography-Guided LASIK

  • Wavefront-Guided LASIK

  • Ray-Tracing LASIK

By combining the strengths of these technologies, CustomVision™ LASIK allows us to create a highly individualized treatment plan designed specifically for your eyes.

What Is High-Contrast Vision?

High-contrast vision refers to the ability to see fine detail, sharp edges, and subtle differences in brightness.

A helpful way to think about it is the difference between standard television and high-definition television (HDTV). HDTV delivers sharper images, richer detail, and greater depth.

With CustomVision™ LASIK, the goal is to help your eyes themselves produce that same high-definition level of clarity—without glasses or contact lenses.

How CustomVision™ LASIK Achieves It

At Stahl Vision, we combine advanced measurement technology combined with the experience of treating more than 50,000 patients to develop highly sophisticated nomograms—customized treatment formulas that account for factors such as your prescription, age, gender, astigmatism, corneal shape, and the overall dimensions of your eye.  This allows us to correct not only standard vision errors but also many of the subtle optical imperfections that affect visual quality.  By combining this level of diagnostic detail with advanced laser technology, we are able to deliver exceptional visual outcomes with a level of precision, customization, and safety that you simply will not find anywhere else.

By addressing these details, many patients experience:

  • Sharper, crisper vision

  • Improved contrast sensitivity

  • Better clarity in low-light conditions

  • Vision that can meet or exceed 20/20

  • Highest level of safety

The Goal: High-Definition Vision

Our goal with CustomVision™ LASIK is not just to help patients see the eye chart clearly—but to help them experience exceptional visual quality in everyday life.

For many patients, that means achieving high-contrast, high-definition vision that simply wasn’t possible with earlier generations of LASIK technology.

Night Vision and LASIK: Improving Night Driving with CustomVision LASIK Treatments

Many people who wear glasses or contact lenses struggle with poor night vision, especially while driving. Blurry lights, halos around headlights, glare from streetlights, and reduced contrast can make nighttime driving uncomfortable and sometimes stressful.

One of the main reasons for night vision problems is that vision is not only affected by nearsightedness or farsightedness, but also by tiny optical imperfections in the eye called higher-order aberrations. These microscopic irregularities cannot be corrected with traditional glasses or contact lenses and are a common cause of halos, glare, and reduced clarity at night.

How CustomVision LASIK Can Improve Night Vision

Modern CustomVision LASIK treatments use advanced diagnostic technology to identify and correct these subtle visual imperfections. By combining wavefront analysis, detailed corneal topography measurements, with the overall dimensions of the eye,  we can create a highly personalized vision correction plan for each patient.

This technology allows us to:

  • Detect microscopic optical imperfections in the eye

  • Precisely map how light travels through your visual system

  • Customize the laser treatment to reduce aberrations that affect night vision

By addressing these small imperfections, CustomVision LASIK can significantly improve visual clarity, contrast sensitivity, and overall night vision performance.

LASIK and Night Driving

Many patients who undergo advanced wavefront-guided LASIK report improvements in their ability to see clearly in low-light conditions. In fact, studies have shown that patients are approximately four times more likely to experience improved night vision than worsening symptoms with modern CustomVision LASIK technology.

After treatment, patients often notice:

  • Reduced halos around headlights

  • Less glare from streetlights and oncoming traffic

  • Sharper contrast in low-light environments

  • Greater confidence when driving at night

A Clearer View at Night

For many people, the improvements go beyond simply eliminating glasses or contacts. Patients frequently tell us they have never experienced vision this crisp and clear before, especially in challenging lighting conditions.

With today’s advanced Custom LASIK technology, achieving clearer, more comfortable night vision after LASIK is more possible than ever.

Nomograms for LASIK: Precision and Safety in Custom LASIK

At Stahl Vision, we have combined the experience of treating more than 50,000 LASIK patients with highly detailed measurements of the eye to develop CustomVision LASIK™—a proprietary and trademarked approach to custom LASIK eye surgery designed to deliver exceptional visual outcomes with an advanced focus on precision and safety.

A key component of achieving consistent results in modern LASIK surgery is the use of LASIK nomograms.

What Is a LASIK Nomogram?

A LASIK nomogram is a highly refined set of customized treatment formulas programmed into the laser before surgery. These formulas adjust the laser treatment to account for the unique characteristics of each patient’s eyes.

LASIK nomograms incorporate many variables, including:

  • Your glasses or contact lens prescription

  • Age and gender

  • Astigmatism

  • Corneal curvature and corneal shape

  • The overall dimensions and optical system of your eye

  • Surgeon-specific treatment data and outcomes

By analyzing these factors, the nomogram allows the surgeon to precisely calibrate the laser treatment for each individual patient. This level of customization is a critical factor in achieving predictable outcomes and maintaining the highest standards of LASIK safety.

At Stahl Vision, our proprietary Stahl Formula Nomogram has been refined through decades of experience and tens of thousands of procedures.

Using this advanced approach, we have been able to improve outcomes from the typical 90% of patients achieving 20/20 visionto over 99% of myopic patients achieving 20/20 vision, with more than 80% seeing better than 20/20.*

For many patients, this means vision that is even sharper than what they previously experienced with glasses or contact lenses, often with improved visual clarity and night vision.

Why Nomograms Matter for Custom LASIK

Not all LASIK centers use sophisticated nomograms. However, the most precise and safest LASIK treatments rely on detailed nomograms that are continuously refined based on real patient outcomes.

The best LASIK nomograms are built from:

  • Years of surgical experience

  • Tens of thousands of patient outcomes

  • Advanced diagnostic technology

  • Continuous analysis and improvement

At Stahl Vision, our custom LASIK nomograms are constantly refined to improve accuracy, predictability, and safety in laser eye surgery.

How We Develop Our Custom LASIK Nomograms

Creating highly accurate LASIK nomograms requires a combination of technology, data analysis, and surgical expertise.

Controlled Surgical Environment

We carefully control the temperature, humidity, and corneal hydration in the laser suite to maintain consistent surgical conditions. These environmental factors can influence laser precision and must be tightly managed to achieve the most accurate results.

Advanced Wavefront Measurements

We use advanced wavefront mapping technology to analyze the complete optical system of the eye. These measurements help detect tiny visual imperfections and allow us to create a highly individualized treatment plan for each patient.

Wavefront data is used both to design the treatment and to monitor and analyze outcomes after surgery, helping refine our nomograms over time.

Computer Modeling and Data Analysis

Using advanced computer modeling, we analyze numerous variables that affect LASIK outcomes, including:

  • Age and gender differences

  • Astigmatism patterns

  • Corneal shape and thickness

  • Eye length and optical dimensions

  • Differences between wavefront measurements and traditional refraction

  • Interactions between higher-order aberrations and standard vision errors such as nearsightedness and farsightedness

These calculations allow us to develop and refine our LASIK nomogram formulas.

Custom Treatment Software

To implement the nomogram for each patient, we use specialized software developed by Dr. Brian Stahl that creates a personalized treatment plan based on each patient’s measurements and visual goals.

Advanced Laser Technology

Even the best nomogram requires a highly precise laser system. At Stahl Vision, LASIK procedures are performed using the Wavelight Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Excimer Laser, which includes high-speed eye tracking technology to maintain accuracy and enhance safety throughout the procedure.

Continuous Improvement

Developing world-class LASIK nomograms is an ongoing process. Every treatment and outcome provides additional data that allows us to refine and improve our formulas over time. Our commitment to constant analysis and improvement helps ensure that each generation of nomograms becomes even more precise.
