What is ZEISS SMILE® PRO?

ZEISS SMILE® PRO (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is a next-generation laser eye surgery that gently reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors such as short-sightedness (myopia). Unlike traditional LASIK, ZEISS SMILE® PRO does not require a corneal flap — making it a gentler, faster, and more comfortable vision correction option for eligible candidates.
Key Features:
Minimally invasive with faster healing
High-precision femtosecond laser
Reduced risk of dry eyes
Quiet, blade-free, and comfortable procedure
Fast, accurate laser time — just 10 seconds.

Note: Suitability for ZEISS SMILE® PRO can only be determined through a thorough clinical consultation by our certified eye specialists.

Who Can Benefit from ZEISS SMILE® PRO?

ZEISS SMILE® PRO may be suitable for individuals who:
Have mild to moderate myopia (short-sightedness)
Experience mild astigmatism
Lead active lifestyles or are involved in sports
Seek a minimally invasive, flapless LASIK alternative
Desire faster recovery and lower risk of dry eyes
A comprehensive consultation is needed to determine candidacy.

Who Is Not Suitable for ZEISS SMILE® PRO?

While ZEISS SMILE® PRO offers numerous benefits, it may not be suitable for individuals who:
Have high degrees of hyperopia (long-sightedness)
Are diagnosed with keratoconus or irregular corneal conditions
Have uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune conditions
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have thin corneas or severe dry eyes
Other advanced options may be recommended by your specialist.

ZEISS SMILE® PRO Procedure Steps

How ZEISS SMILE® PRO Works — Step by Step:
Numbing drops are applied; no general anesthesia is needed.
The ZEISS VisuMax® 800 laser creates a lenticule (a thin disc-shaped piece of tissue) and a small incision.
Through the micro-incision, the lenticule is gently removed, reshaping the cornea.
No stitches are required, and the incision heals naturally.
Total laser time is approximately 8-10 seconds per eye.
