SMILE Laser Vision Correction

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) represents one of the most advanced refractive surgery technologies available, and Dr. Jung specializes in this innovative approach.

Technology Overview:

SMILE is a third-generation laser vision correction procedure offering significant advantages over earlier LASIK technology:

How SMILE Works:

  • Femtosecond Laser Precision: Advanced laser creates precise lenticule (lens-shaped tissue) within the cornea
  • Minimal Incision: Single small incision (2-4mm) rather than creating a large flap like LASIK
  • Lenticule Removal: Carefully extracted lenticule reshapes cornea, correcting refractive error
  • Rapid Healing: Minimal tissue disruption promotes faster healing and better visual recovery

Advantages of SMILE:

Minimal Tissue Disruption:

  • Smaller incision preserves more corneal nerve fibers
  • Reduced risk of dry eye compared to LASIK
  • Better corneal stability and structural integrity

Biomechanical Advantages:

  • Preserves more corneal tissue structure
  • Enhanced corneal strength and stability
  • Better long-term refractive stability
  • Reduced risk of ectasia (corneal weakening)

Patient Comfort:

  • Faster visual recovery (days to weeks vs. months)
  • Less postoperative discomfort
  • Reduced dry eye symptoms
  • Better quality of vision

Safety Profile:

  • Excellent long-term safety profile
  • Lower complication rates
  • Minimal flap-related complications (single incision vs. full flap)
  • Better predictability of outcomes

Candidate Selection:

Dr. Jung carefully evaluates candidates for SMILE surgery:

Ideal SMILE Candidates:

  • Myopia (Nearsightedness): Treatment of myopia from -1.0 to -10.0 diopters
  • Astigmatism: Correction of myopic astigmatism up to -5.0 diopters
  • Thin Corneas: Those not suitable for LASIK due to corneal thickness
  • Dry Eye Prone: Patients who would struggle with LASIK dry eye
