New instruments for lenticule extraction in small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is an alternative to Laser-Assisted in situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) for correction of myopia. In cases where surgeons inadvertently dissect the posterior surface first, identification of the anterior surface and

Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in 2015 [PDF]

open access: yesAustralasian journal of optometry, The, 2016
Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) represents a recent addition to the refractive surgeon's range of procedures. Although there remains a number of similarities to existing techniques in terms of patient selection and treatment parameters, consideration is required to optimise patient outcomes and satisfaction.

The effect of small incision lenticule extraction on contrast sensitivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The improvements due to small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in vision, e.g., in spherical equivalent (SE) and visual acuity (VA), has been widely recognized. However, the contrast sensitivity (CS) change after SMILE was not certain.

Management of incision failure during small incision lenticule extraction because of conjunctivochalasis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2017
Purpose: We report a case of incision failure during small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and its management. Observations: The incision could not be made using the femtosecond laser because of a redundant conjunctiva, so it was instead done ...
