These are minimally-invasive (painless, bloodless, and cause less trauma) procedures that correct refractive errors like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism (abnormal curvature of the cornea), and presbyopia (a condition that is characterized by the eyes\u2019 inability to focus nearby objects). Your dependency on eyeglasses and contact lenses is greatly reduced, boosting your confidence. SMILE is one such laser eye surgery that permanently corrects your refractive error and stabilizes your vision. It is a safe and effective eye surgery being opted by many individuals today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us explore more about SMILE eye surgery and how it works in stabilizing your eyesight<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Does SMILE Eye Surgery Works?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) eye surgery is a laser-assisted procedure that aims to improve your vision. Refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia cause a change in your vision which makes it difficult for you to read, write, drive, and perform other daily routine activities. This significantly affects your quality of life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eyeglasses and contact lenses are considered an option for many but with their own drawbacks. On the one hand, eyeglasses are aesthetically not appealing, which lowers your confidence. On the other hand, using contact lenses is a tedious process due to the risk of allergies and infections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, laser eye surgery such as SMILE is the solution to all your problems that permanently improves your vision, thereby reducing your dependency on eyeglasses and contact lenses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>The principle behind SMILE eye surgery<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your vision depends on your cornea (the transparent part of your eye that covers the pupil and iris, that allows light to enter inside)\u00a0 and lens that focus a clear image of the objects around you, onto your retina (light sensitive layer at the back of your eye).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This happens due to the bending (refraction) of light rays to form a sharp image on your retina.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abnormal alterations in the shape of your cornea leads to the image not being focused properly thus making your vision blurry.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SMILE surgery uses a femtosecond laser to correct the abnormal curvature of your cornea.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It creates a lenticule (a disc-shaped piece of the cornea) within the different layers of the cornea.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This lenticule is then extracted (removed) through tiny incisions measuring less than 4 mm (the name given to the surgery is because of the lenticule created and size of incision).<\/span><img loading=\"lazy\"
