Laser Eye Center of Lubbock is the first and only Laser Vision Correction center in Lubbock to do CustomVue wavefront laser vision correction, with its Star S4 vision correction system.  Star S4 features all of the benefits of S3.  Additionally, Star S4 can perform CustomVue wavefront corrections.  CustomVue provides a way of correcting higher order aberrations of the eye such that the vision correction, night glare, and visual outcomes are almost always better than traditional laser vision correction.
