The eye-tracking system ensures that laser beam follows the movements of the eye, even if the patient involuntarily looks away during the treatment.

The active "eye tracker" is a control system that follows the laser beam online. Even in case of rapid eye movements, corneal ablation proceeds exactly where it should. The center of the cornea is treated even more precisely than before and any ablation of corneal tissue in the wrong place is ruled out.

Modern lasers of the Scanning Spot type scan the cornea with a laser beam and cannot work without such an eye-tracking system. With this type of laser, astigmatism can be treated in a much more tissue-sparing and precise manner than up to now. Our modern laser units are equipped with the ultrarapid Fast-track technology.

During the treatment, this eye-tracking system, the most up-to-date available today, follows not only lateral movements along the X and Y axis, but also compensates rotational eye movements in real time.
