Differences between provider's lasers

I am currently looking inot LASEK wavefront and was hoping to compare the types of lasers used by different providers. Is there one that is clearly better than others?

Most clinics will generally claim to have the best lasers and it really does depend on which criteria you are basing the judgement on. What is more important is the skill of the surgeon and the level of aftercare you are offered following surgery.

During a laser eye surgery consultation you should ask your surgery what percentage of the patients he/she treats ends up with perfect 20:20 vision as this is after all the reason you are having the surgery.

It is also important to ask the complication rates of the clinic and surgeon in question to ensure your surgery is as safe as it possibly could be.

Hope this helps
