In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) was introduced in 2011 using the VISUMAX femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). It is designed for correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism. It involves the creation of a corneal tissue disk called lenticule and its extraction through a minimally invasive incision, utilizing only a femtosecond laser. This enables rapid visual recovery with very little discomfort to the patient. This observational case series monitors visual and refractive outcomes of myopic correction for more than -7.75 D. It is to * gather long-term results and refractive stability * detect rare complications or side-effects * evaluate the efficacy in a large number of patients
