LASIK
During a LASIK procedure, a circular corneal flap is created first with a femtosecond laser. After the corneal flap is established it is then raised. The surgeon then uses an excimer laser to reshape on the underlying stroma by removing the appropriate corneal tissue for vision correction.
SMILE
SMILE (small incision lenticule extraction) is a laser eye surgery intended to correct near sightedness (often in higher degrees of severity) astigmatism to improve the patient’s overall vision. SMILE is the most recently developed mainstream laser eye surgery to earn consideration for widespread treatment. Although it is relatively new, refractive errors in over three million eyes have been corrected by SMILE as of June 2020.
CLEAR
Cornea Lenticule Extraction for Advanced Refractive Correction (CLEAR) is a femtosecond laser surgery that is used to correct Myopia and Astigmatism without creating a corneal flap, similar to SMILE but created with a low energy laser.
