SMILE surgery

This is a All-Laser LASEK procedure that uses the iVIS system to perform everything from corneal epithelium removal to vision correction via laser. It corrects vision by applying a laser to the corneal surface without creating a corneal flap, and the surgery is planned based on the individual's corneal condition and the degree of myopia and astigmatism. Before the surgery, a comprehensive examination is conducted to check corneal thickness, shape, intraocular pressure, and pupil size to determine surgical eligibility and the amount of correction required.

A recovery period of 3 to 5 days is required, and a return to daily activities such as work is generally possible in about a week.

Recommended for

  • For those who want to reduce the inconvenience of wearing glasses or contact lenses
  • For those considering a vision correction method that does not involve creating a corneal flap
  • For those who require safety against external impacts due to frequent exercise or outdoor activities
  • For those who need a quick recovery to return to their daily routine

Procedure Benefits

  • All-laser method: Using the iVIS device, the entire procedure, from corneal epithelium removal to vision correction, is performed using a laser.
  • Surgery without a corneal flap: By not creating a corneal flap, it avoids issues such as the flap shifting or folding.
  • Personalized surgical plan: The scope of correction and the surgical plan are determined based on test results, such as corneal shape and the degree of myopia and astigmatism.
  • Post-operative follow-up care: The cost of post-operative care for vision correction is included for 3 months from the date of surgery, and the recovery status will be monitored.

Risks and Notes

- Postoperative pain, foreign body sensation, glare, dry eye, light sensitivity (halos/starbursts), visual fluctuation, corneal haze, infection, and under-correction or over-correction may occur, and recovery time varies by individual. - Use eye drops as prescribed and do not remove the protective lens on your own. - Be careful not to rub your eyes or allow water or foreign substances to enter them, and protect your eyes from UV rays when going out. - Please follow the medical staff's instructions regarding when to resume face washing, eye makeup, swimming, exercise, and driving. - If you experience sudden vision loss, worsening pain, redness, or discharge, contact the clinic immediately. ※ Post-operative care costs for vision correction are included for 3 months from the date of surgery. After 3 months, additional costs may apply, and regular follow-up appointments are required depending on the condition of your eyes.
