Beyond Conventional Topolink — Shape, Stability, Clarity
LAREK is a refractive correction and remodeling technology built on the Topolink platform.
While conventional Topolink techniques focus on corneal ablation to correct refractive errors and refractive irregularities,
LAREK is designed to correct refractive errors and corneal shape irregularities using a more advanced and biomechanically informed ablation strategy.
Conventional approaches aim for optimal refractive outcomes only when the ablated corneal shape remains stable after surgery. LAREK takes a fundamentally different path: it is engineered to intentionally guide controlled corneal shape changes post‑surgery, using those biomechanical responses to achieve a more precise and predictable refractive result.
A further advantage of LAREK is that its improved postoperative corneal architecture enhances tear‑film stability,
leading to clearer vision and greater overall ocular comfort.
LAK (Laser Asymmetric Keratectomy) represents the first-generation technique of WellC’s corneal remodeling technology.
LAREK (Laser Asymmetric Refractive Keratectomy) is a corneal remodeling technique designed to address asymmetric corneal deformation while simultaneously correcting refractive error.
