Conventional LASIK is a type of vision correction surgery in which the corneal stroma is cut into a flap shape, the flap is opened, the cornea is ablated to correct vision, and then the flap is closed again while recovery is awaited. During surgery, a large amount of corneal ablation can occur, so the amount of corneal damage can also increase, and related side effects may occur. In contrast, SMILE LASIK is a type of vision correction surgery that does not create a corneal flap, but passes through the corneal surface and uses a laser only on the stroma to correct vision. The surgery is performed through a minimal 2 mm incision.
