Testimonial

“SMILE has a different learning curve to LASIK, since it requires the surgeon to identify
planes and perform a smooth dissection. My dissector has been shown in laboratory
tests and through clinical results to provide the smoothest interface that has equated to
excellent postop visual acuity”
