What is SMILE?
SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a revolutionary laser vision correction procedure that offers a minimally invasive alternative to traditional LASIK surgery. It involves creating a small incision in the cornea and using a laser to reshape the underlying tissue, correcting vision problems like nearsightedness and astigmatism.
