It’s been almost 1 year since the surgery, and these are the pros and cons I feel Pros: 1. I can see so well >I wore glasses and contact lenses my whole life, so just being able to see well itself feels amazing and really nice 2. Highly recommend for people with allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis >I usually lived with atopy + allergic rhinitis + conjunctivitis, so I wore contacts and rubbed my eyes a lot Because of that, I would get corneal scratches, developed under-eye wrinkles, and my eyes would swell so much that my lenses would pop out often, but now none of that happens, so I’m very satisfied 3. Fast recovery after SMILE LASIK surgery >I’m addicted to dopamine, so I thought it would be hard if I couldn’t use my smartphone for long, so I chose SMILE LASIK instead of LASEK. After a few hours of pain on the same day, I was fine right away Cons: 1. Glare/halos >My pupils were originally large, so I already had eyes with glare/halos, and they told me that if I got SMILE LASIK, the glare/halos could get worse I still had the surgery, but nighttime driving is uncomfortable >Nighttime driving discomfort is the biggest downside I feel right now, but I can still drive with my bare eyes >After surgery, I could barely look at bright lights, almost like I was being exorcised, but after about a week it got better Conclusion: >I haven’t really felt any major downside yet, and glare/halos seem to be the biggest drawback >Overall, I’m very satisfied, and I think it was the best surgery I chose to get Like 0 Empathy emoticon Translating SMILE LASIK Would you like to save this review? +0 This is a surgery review pursuing natural beauty.

Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewSep 4 LASIK surgery
I corrected my vision in eyes with severe astigmatism through LASIK surgery, not SMILE LASIK. It’s been 1,748 days since the surgery, but my vision is still staying around 1.2. From the start, I had no intention of getting SMILE LASIK; I w
Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewSep 4 Several years after SMILE
I think it’s been a little under 10 years since I had SMILE. At first my vision was 1.5, then it gradually went down. I only checked until it was 1.0 and haven’t checked since, but I think it’s still about that level.
