SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) eye surgery is a revolutionary step in laser vision correction, offering patients a minimally invasive and precise solution for achieving clear vision. At the Pio Clinic, we specialise in this advanced procedure and offer patients a safe, effective and comfortable experience. SMILE is particularly effective for people with short-sightedness and astigmatism, providing results comparable to LASIK, but with distinct advantages.

The procedure uses a femtosecond laser to create a small lens within the cornea. This lens is then removed through a tiny incision, reshaping the cornea and improving vision. Unlike LASIK, SMILE does not require the creation of a corneal flap, which improves structural stability and reduces the risk of dry eye. Patients experience minimal discomfort and the recovery process is quick, with most returning to daily activities within a few days.

At Pio Clinic, our priority is to provide state-of-the-art care. Our ophthalmologists are trained in the latest SMILE techniques and use state-of-the-art equipment to ensure precision and safety. We offer comprehensive evaluations to determine candidacy for the procedure and personalised follow-up care to monitor healing and optimise results.

SMILE is particularly attractive to those seeking a less invasive option with faster recovery times. It’s a game changer for people with active lifestyles, minimising post-operative restrictions and ensuring lasting visual improvement. Whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or someone looking to simplify your daily routine, SMILE can help you achieve freedom from glasses and contact lenses.
