Small Incision Lenticule Extraction
Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) is a minimally invasive eye surgery used to correct refractive vision problems such as myopia and astigmatism. The procedure involves a small incision to remove a lenticule from the cornea, reshaping it to improve focus. It offers quicker recovery time and reduced risk of complications compared to traditional LASIK surgery. SMILE is ideal for patients seeking an effective, less invasive option for vision correction.
