ORange WaveTec is a cutting edge technology that allows Dr. Assil to take a picture of the eye at the time of surgery to verify that the nearsightedness, farsightedness or the astigmatism (eyeglass prescription) was corrected, and that the correct lens was selected. This means Dr. Assil is able to correct the eye prescription in “real time” so the patient may not need any glasses after surgery.  Dr. Assil serves on the Medical Advisory Board of WaveTec and was the first physician to use the ORange WaveTec technology that has dramatically advanced the successful outcome of cataract surgery by freeing patients from eyeglasses, often for the first time in their lives.
