SMILE Pro Laser
Istanbul
SMILE Pro Laser in Istanbul is available at 2 hospitals in the Voumed network.
SMILE Pro is an advanced, faster version of the SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) technique, a modern, minimally invasive laser method for correcting short-sightedness (myopia) and astigmatism. Unlike older flap-based procedures, it works through a tiny opening only a few millimetres wide, with no large corneal flap. A femtosecond laser shapes a thin disc of tissue (a lenticule) inside the cornea, which the surgeon then removes through this small incision, gently reshaping the cornea so that vision is corrected. The goal is to reduce or remove dependence on glasses and contact lenses, with a quick and comfortable recovery.
