Lenticular Extraction

Treats

  • Short-sightedness

  • Astigmatism

  • Presbyopia

Lenticular extraction (sometimes called SMILE) is the most modern method of performing laser eye surgery. It provides excellent results with a painless and rapid recovery.

Using air bubbles, the latest generation laser delicately shapes a contact lens-shaped piece of corneal tissue aimed to correct your vision. This tissue is removed, and the procedure is over. There are no blades, or flaps, just air bubbles.
