Why Is SMILE Surgery Sometimes Considered Difficult at Eye Clinics?

Why Is SMILE Surgery Sometimes Considered Difficult at Eye Clinics?

The reason is that each hospital has different types of vision correction equipment. If only an excimer laser is available, then only LASEK can be performed. If the clinic has a femtosecond laser, then LASIK is possible. To perform SMILE, however, even more specialized and delicate equipment is required.

If SMILE Is Not Possible, Does That Mean You Must Undergo LASIK or LASEK Instead?

In reality, most people who are eligible for LASIK or LASEK are also eligible for SMILE. Patients often choose SMILE because it is more precise and maintains stable vision.

However, in cases of high myopia, the cornea may become weakened. To avoid further weakening, LASEK might sometimes be chosen. But LASEK in high myopia carries a risk of corneal haze, and in such cases SMILE may actually be the more suitable option.

In contrast, there are cases where LASIK and LASEK are possible but SMILE is not, because SMILE does have limitations in correcting vision. Therefore, in cases of very low prescriptions, SMILE may not be an option.
