Complications of small incision lenticule extraction
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020 The procedure of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) was introduced in 2011, and since then there has been an increase in the number of cases undergoing this procedure worldwide. The surgery has a learning curve and may be associated with problems in the intraoperative and postoperative periods.

Monson small-incision lenticule extraction fixation device
Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery, 2021 Small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is a stromal based, flapless, minimally invasive form of laser vision correction for the treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. SMILE surgery is a more technical procedure compared with other refractive surgeries and generally has a longer skill mastery acquisition period.
