  • All surgical steps can be carried out by a single laser and without a blade in RelEx SMILE treatment yielding very good results for especially high myopia and being revolutionary for bladeless laser treatment. It is performed by removal of lenticula by smaller incision than Femto LASIK method.

  • Smile laser surgery is performed by use of VisuMaxfemtosecond laser being the patented techology of Carl ZeissMeditec and is FDA certified. The surgeon use femtosecond laser to create a small tissue in the form of a lens (lenticula) in the cornea in SMILE procedure. Then, an incision in the form of a small spring is applied to the cornea surface with the same laser and the surgeon excretes the lenticula from this incision. When the small lenticula is removed, myopia will be corrected and shape of the cornea will be changed. Cornea incision recovers within a few days without any sutures and clear vision will be experienced very fast.
