The present review describes the current status of wavefront-guided corneal surgery and up-to-date results. Wavefront-guided LASIK procedures performed to date achieved uncorrected vision of i.o or better in a larger number of patients than with conventional LASIK surgery, but the "eagle eye" has remained the exception. In part of the patients reductions of higher order aberrations could be obtained, but in the majority of ca-ses an increase was observed. This increase was however less than with conventional LASIK surgery. Correction of higher order aberrations has not yet been perfected since the predictability of corrections appears to be deserving of improvement on the one hand and aberrations are still induced by the technique on the other hand.
