SMILE is Your Best Choice to Go Glasses-Free

The latest technology in correcting myopia and astigmatism, by removing a thin layer from the corneal stroma (Lenticule) through a small 2-3 mm incision, using femtosecond laser. SMILE procedure provides quick and painless visual improvement, and the risk of developing dry eyes is low due to the small incision made on the surface of cornea.

Why Choose SMILE Over LASIK/LASEK?

Minimal Incision
Small 2-3mm incision vs 20mm LASIK flap
Reduced Dry Eye
Significantly fewer dry eye symptoms compared to LASIK
Preserved Strength
Maintain corneal structural integrity
Flap-Free Procedure

No corneal flap complications – eliminates all flap-related risks

Faster Recovery

Quicker visual recovery and return to normal activities

Frequently Asked Questions

How old do I need to be for SMILE surgery?

Like other laser refractive surgery patients, you should be 21 years old and above

IS SMILE EYE SURGERY SAFE?

SMILE is a flap-less procedure, which means that all complications associated with corneal flap, as in the case of LASIK, would be excluded in SMILE. Retained part of the lenticule could happen in 3%, without significant visual compromise in most cases. If the visual outcome was suboptimal, further refractive surgery might be needed. Regression of shortsightedness could be encountered in 2% after the SMILE procedure, which might need further correction.

HOW LONG IS THE RECOVERY TIME AFTER SMILE?

On the first day following SMILE procedure, 55% of the patients will achieve 20/20 vision. This percentage would increase to 93% by the end of the first month, and 96% by 3 months.
