SMILE Pro

Greater Precision and Safety
The most advanced laser technology for clearer vision

SMILE Pro is an upgraded version of conventional SMILE. While SMILE is performed using the VISUMAX 500 laser system, SMILE Pro uses the cutting-edge VISUMAX 800 femtosecond laser. This advancement shortens laser treatment time to under 10 seconds, resulting in quicker recovery and clearer vision with greater precision.

1.Laser Application in Just 10 Seconds
- The shortest laser exposure time ever used for corneal lenticule creation.
2. Real-Time Pressure Monitoring
- Automatically adjust for eye position and movement during surgery.
3.Minimally Invasive Incision
- Removes corneal tissue through a micro-incision of approximately 2mm.

Why SMILE Pro is the Most Advanced Choice Today

1. Faster, Safer Surgery & Quicker Recovery
SMILE Pro reduces laser time to just one-third of conventional SMILE, minimizing eye exposure time.This lowers the risk of infection and suction loss, and reduces corneal damage - helping you recover faster and more safely.
2. CentraLign Technology for Superior Accuracy
CentraLign technology precisely aligns the visual and pupil axes, minimizing visual disturbances like glare and halos, and ensuring sharper central vision.
3. OcuLign Technology for Precise Astigmatism Correction
OcuLign technology automatically adjusts the astigmatic axis in response to subtle eye movements, allowing for precise correction even in cases of moderate to high astigmatism or light spread concerns.

Not All SMILE Pro Surgeries Are the Same - B&VIIT is Different.

AI Precision Meets Surgical Excellence

Shorter Surgery, Faster Recovery

With a minimally invasive 2mm incision that preserves the corneal epithelium, patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to daily activities as early as the next day - ideal even for short stays.

Which vision correction surgery is appropriate for me?

	SMILE	LASIK	LASEK(PRK)	Phakic IOL
Advanced	💎SMILE Pro - 4X faster than previous versions - Surgery time within 10 seconds	💎PersonalEYES LASIK - Precise correction, even for high-order aberrations - Reduces glare and residual astigmatism	💎PersonalEYES LASEK - Precise correction, even for high-order aberrations - Reduces glare and residual astigmatism	💎Viva ICL - Corrects both presbyopia (aging eyes) and myopia (nearsightedness) - Uses EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) technology
Basic	SMILE	LASIK	LASEK(PRK)	Available for myopia and astigmatism
Method	No flap, minimally invasive	Flap creation followed by laser correction	Epithelium removed before laser correction	A 2~3mm incision is made at the edge of the cornea to insert a custom lens behind the iris
Characteristics	High safety and fast recovery	Less pain and fast recovery	Resistant to external impact	No corneal tissue removal - safe for high prescriptions and thin corneas Minimizes risks of glare, dry eyes, and myopia regression The lens is removable and replaceable
Best for	Those who want quick recovery Those with dry eyes Those needing correction for myopia or astigmatism	Those who cannot take long breaks from work Those sensitive to pain Those needing astigmatism correction Corneal thickness over 500μm	Those with very thin corneas or very small eyes Those with severe dry eyes Those engaged in activities that impart impact upon the eyes	Those who cannot undergo laser eye surgery due to ultra-high myopia or astigmatism Those with very thin corneas Those with great fear of surgery
Postoperative Care	-	Avoid any impact or pressure on the eyes right after surgery	Requires 3~6 months of care	Requires regular check-up and caution to prevent impact
Postoperative Check-ups	Day after surgery, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year postop		Day after surgery, 4 days postop, and long-term care for 3~6 months	Every week for 1 month, and regular check-up required
Pain and Downtime	Minimal discomfort Return to daily life by next day		Mild discomfort Recovery period of 3~4 days	Very little pain Recovery by the next day
