ReLEx SMILE Laser Eye Surgery

Ophthalmology
Experience the Next Generation of Bladeless Laser Vision Correction Imagine life without the hassle of glasses or contact lenses. ReLEx SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is the latest, most advanced laser eye surgery available, offering a minimally invasive, "flapless" alternative to traditional LASIK. SMILE provides exceptional visual outcomes for myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism, with the significant benefit of a faster, more comfortable recovery. We are proud to connect international patients with Turkey's premier eye clinics, which utilize this groundbreaking technology. How Does ReLEx SMILE Work? SMILE is a single-step, all-in-one laser procedure. Lenticule Creation: A high-precision femtosecond laser creates a tiny, lens-shaped piece of tissue (a "lenticule") inside the intact cornea. This lenticule is shaped precisely to correct your unique refractive error. Minimally Invasive Extraction: The laser then creates a microscopic incision (less than 4mm) on the cornea's surface. Correction: The surgeon gently removes the lenticule through this keyhole incision. By removing the lenticule, the shape of the cornea is changed, correcting your vision. The procedure is typically completed in just 10-15 minutes for both eyes. The SMILE Advantage: Why It's Different No Flap: Unlike LASIK, SMILE does not require creating a corneal flap. This means better corneal stability and a dramatically reduced risk of flap-related complications. Less Invasive: The "keyhole" incision is 80% smaller than a LASIK flap. Reduced Dry Eye: Because fewer corneal nerves are disturbed, patients experience a significantly lower incidence of post-operative dry eye. Faster Recovery: Most patients are back to their normal activities, including sports and swimming, much faster than with other procedures. Why Choose Turkey for Your SMILE Procedure?
