Description

ReLEx (Refractive Lenticule Extraction) SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a novel and advanced surgery for correcting nearsightedness. SMILE is as safe as the PRK method with the healing time of LASIK. In this procedure, a disk-shaped segment of the corneal tissue is removed through a small incision created with the femtosecond laser.
Procedures

Procedures

This operation is performed as a single step laser treatment as follows:

• The laser is programmed with the patient's specific eye measurements.

• Anesthetic drops are put in the eye.

• The eye is kept from blinking using lid speculum.

• The cornea is lifted, flattened and kept in place using a suction ring.

• A piece of the cornea with the shape of a circular disc is sculpted using the laser. This part is named “leticule”.

• A small incision, at the size of the 4 mm, is made using the femtosecond laser.

• The disc is removed through this incision.

• This process changes the corneal curvature.

• After a quick checkup, the patient can leave the hospital.

The whole procedure takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete and only a small part of this time is spent on laser treatments. The recovery process is quick and comfortable. You may use a computer or drive the day after surgery.
