Advances in eye surgery have transformed how vision correction is performed—making procedures faster and more comfortable than ever before. At NVISION Eye Centers, Dr. Sheri Rowen, MD, and her team use the latest laser and diagnostic technologies to deliver individualized results.
Dr. Rowen is known internationally for helping to introduce groundbreaking tools and surgical techniques that have set new standards in ophthalmology. Her Newport Beach and Fullerton centers serve patients throughout Southern California, who want access to leading-edge options for clearer vision and shorter recovery times.
Advancing Precision in Laser Vision Correction
Dr. Rowen is among the first surgeons in the region to incorporate next-generation laser platforms and diagnostic systems into patient care. Each technology used at her practice is selected for its proven accuracy, safety, and ability to deliver lasting vision improvement.
WaveLight® EX500 EXcimer Laser System (Alcon) Laser System
The WaveLight® EX500 EXcimer Laser System (Alcon) is one of the most trusted laser platforms in modern refractive surgery. It is FDA-approved for the treatment of myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism—making it one of the most versatile and advanced systems available today.
This high-speed laser combines precision with safety. Using PerfectPulse™ Technology, it tracks eye movement up to 1.050 times per second, automatically adjusting or pausing treatment as needed. This ensures precise laser delivery, minimizes heat exposure, and reduces the risk of glare or halos after surgery.
Because the WaveLight® EX500 EXcimer Laser System (Alcon) preserves the cornea’s natural curvature, patients experience sharper, more balanced vision across different lighting conditions. The procedure is quick, effective, and offers a high probability of achieving vision within one diopter of the intended target.
Contoura Laser Vision is an advanced form of LASIK that uses detailed corneal topography measurements to create a customized excimer laser treatment profile designed not only to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism, but also to reduce subtle corneal irregularities and higher-order aberrations unique to each patient’s eye. By incorporating thousands of elevation data points from the corneal surface, Contoura treatment can improve the quality of vision as well as visual acuity, often resulting in sharper vision, improved contrast sensitivity, and reductions in glare, halos, and night vision symptoms compared with conventional laser vision correction in appropriately selected patients.
LENSAR™ Laser System
The LENSAR™ Laser System represents the next generation of femtosecond technology for cataract surgery. Unlike earlier systems, LENSAR™ was designed specifically for refractive cataract surgery, optimizing both safety and precision.
Using advanced 3-D imaging, the system creates a detailed reconstruction of the eye’s anterior segment, allowing Dr. Rowen to perform highly accurate corneal incisions and lens fragmentation. These automated, bladeless movements enhance surgical control while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues.
The result is a smoother, more predictable procedure with reduced recovery time and improved vision quality. Patients benefit from exceptional outcomes—often with clearer vision immediately following surgery.
Commitment to Innovation
Dr. Rowen’s dedication to staying ahead of the curve means her patients always benefit from the latest improvements in vision technology. She continues to evaluate and integrate new systems that improve precision, safety, and comfort. Her leadership in ophthalmology has made her a sought-after educator and consultant for laser and surgical device development worldwide.
