SMILE Laser Vision Correction
SMILE: The Latest Technology in Laser Vision Correction
Love your contacts, but your eyes don’t? Maybe you suffer from contact lens intolerance (CLI). CLI is a common condition in which your lenses (a foreign body) cause pain and discomfort in your eyes, and your eye can no longer tolerate the contact lens.
Why you'll love SMILE Flapless LASIK:
- Minimally invasive and flapless
- Fast recovery time
- Less expensive than buying contacts over time
SMILE Flapless LASIK is performed in three steps:
- Lenticule creation - A thin lenticule and small incision are created inside the intact Cornea.
- Lenticule removal - The lenticule is removed through the incision with minimal disruption to the corneal biomechanics.
- Impairment is corrected - Removing the lenticule changes the shape of the cornea, thereby achieving a refractive correction.
If you’re tired of dealing with the hassle and discomfort of contact lenses, SMILE Flapless LASIK might be the solution for you. Schedule a consultation at Toyos Clinic to get started.
