SMILE pro is a minimally invasive procedure, meaning that there will be no risk of flap-related complications. As a result, wound recovery and visual recovery will be faster.
This minimally invasive technique involves minimal disruption to the corneal tissue, leaving many upper layers intact. It potentially preserves the eye’s biomechanical stability and promotes rapid healing.
A small piece of corneal tissue (lenticule) and a small incision are created inside the intact cornea using laser.
The lenticule is removed through the small incision with minimal disruption to the cornea.
Removing the lenticule changes the thickness of the cornea, correcting the refractive error.
SMILE pro laser vision correction is gentle and comfortable. There will only be a small opening to correct your vision.
SMILE pro takes only a few minutes to complete. The part of the procedure that uses a laser to create a lenticule lasts only 10 seconds!
Vision recovers quickly after SMILE pro. Most people can return to their normal activities as early as the next day.
With SMILE pro, you may experience less dry eyes and discomfort after the procedure.
SMILE pro is designed to eliminate your need for glasses and contacts.
