ZEISS SMILE® PRO is an enhanced technology of ZEISS SMILE
(previously known as ReLEx SMILE) and it is the latest laser vision correction procedure designed to treat
nearsightedness (myopia) and astigmatism.
ZEISS SMILE® PRO uses precise laser technology to create lenticule, a small,
contact lens-shaped piece of tissue within the cornea, and removed through a
small incision opening (<4mm), allowing for vision correction without the
need for a corneal flap.
The volume and shape of the lenticule correspond to the
amount of tissue required to correct your vision disorder. ZEISS SMILE® PRO
also maintains corneal stability and minimizes disruption to tear production,
making it suitable for patients with dry eyes or contact lens intolerance.
The biggest key
benefit for patients with ZEISS SMILE®
PRO is spending less time in surgery. In the ZEISS SMILE procedure, the
lenticule is formed in less than 30 seconds per eye, while in the new ZEISS
SMILE® PRO technology, lenticule
formation time needed is reduced even further to less than 10 seconds per eye.
It is worth emphasizing that ZEISS
SMILE® PRO can only be performed using
the VISUMAX® 800 which offers PatientSky Lighting to enhance patient’s overall
comfort and reduce anxiety.
