What Is SMILE Surgery?
SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) surgery is the latest and advanced procedure for correcting vision problems such as myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. It works by reshaping the cornea to ensure light focuses correctly on the retina, leading to clearer vision and less dependence on glasses or contact lenses. SMILE is a minimally invasive technique that offers a comfortable experience, fast recovery, and long-lasting results.
At Dayal Eye Centre, we support you through every step of the SMILE procedure. Our expert team of surgeons uses cutting-edge technology to ensure safe and effective treatment. Book a consultation today to discover how SMILE can transform your vision!
What Causes Refractive Errors?
Myopia (Nearsightedness): Often inherited and develops during childhood. Tends to progress during the teenage years.
Hyperopia (Farsightedness): Can be inherited. Typically seen in children, it often decreases as they grow older.
Presbyopia: Caused by aging, as the eye’s lens becomes rigid and less flexible after age 40.
Astigmatism: Occurs due to an uneven corneal shape, leading to blurry or distorted vision.
What are the Symptoms of Refractive Errors?
Blurry Vision: Difficulty seeing clearly, especially at certain distances.
Doublesight: Perceiving two distinct images of one object.
Hazy Vision: Objects appear unclear or foggy.
Headache: Frequent headaches, often caused by eye strain.
Squinting: Attempting to focus by squinting, which may help temporarily.
Eye Fatigue: A sensation of discomfort or tiredness in the eyes.
Eye Pain: Soreness or discomfort in the eyes.
Trouble Focusing: Difficulty focusing on objects, especially at close range.
If you experience any of these symptoms, get your eyes checked right away at Dayal Eye Centre.
Types of SMILE Surgery
Standard SMILE: Involves a small incision on the cornea and a laser to create and extract a lenticule to correct refractive errors.
ReLEx SMILE: A more advanced version using a femtosecond laser for a minimally invasive approach.
TransPRK SMILE: Combines the benefits of TransPRK and SMILE, offering an excellent alternative for individuals who aren’t suitable for traditional LASIK.
Enhanced SMILE: Uses advanced technologies to improve outcomes for optimal vision correction.

Zeiss Visumax SMILE
At Dayal Eye Centre, we use the ZEISS VisuMax SMILE procedure to provide a groundbreaking solution for correcting myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. This advanced, minimally invasive technique offers exceptional precision, safety, and comfort, delivering excellent visual results for our patients. The VisuMax system employs high-precision femtosecond laser technology to create a tiny lenticule inside the cornea, effectively correcting refractive errors.Unlike conventional LASIK, SMILE involves a small 2-4 mm incision that helps preserve the cornea’s structure, leading to faster healing and a lower risk of complications. This approach also minimizes the likelihood of dry eye and supports quicker recovery of clear vision.

How Are We Best for SMILE Surgery in Haryana?
Diagnosis Before SMILE Surgery
At Dayal Eye Centre, we conduct a comprehensive pre-surgical evaluation to determine if you're a suitable candidate for the SMILE procedure. Below is an overview of the steps involved:
Comprehensive Eye Checkup
We begin by evaluating the overall health of your eyes to identify any conditions such as glaucoma or cataracts that could impact the surgery.
Corneal Mapping and Topography
We use advanced imaging technology to analyze the shape, curvature, and thickness of your cornea, ensuring there are no abnormalities that might affect the procedure.
Measurement of Refractive Error
We measure the degree of your nearsightedness (myopia) and astigmatism to confirm they fall within the appropriate range for SMILE surgery.
Pupil Size Assessment
We determine the size of your pupils, especially in low light, to optimize the surgery and minimize post-operative visual issues.
Ocular Surface and Tear Film Evaluation
We assess your tear film quality, as dry eye can affect recovery and comfort, ensuring your ocular surface is healthy before the procedure.
Endothelial Cell Count
We analyze your corneal endothelial cell count using specular microscopy, as a low cell count can increase surgical risks and hinder recovery.
Retinal and Optic Nerve Health
We perform OCT imaging to evaluate the health of your retina and optic nerve, ruling out any underlying issues that could affect your vision.
Prescription Stability
We verify that your prescription has remained stable over the past year to ensure a successful surgical outcome.
Who Should Undergo SMILE Surgery?
Minimum Age Requirement: 18 years or older
Stable Prescription: Your eye care prescriptions should not have changed in the past 6 months.
Nearsightedness: Prescriptions should range from -1 to -10
Astigmatism: Should not exceed 3 diopters
Eye Health: Eyes must be in good condition
Avoid If: You have glaucoma, keratoconus, unbalanced glucose levels, or eye-related allergies
Not Recommended: During pregnancy or nursing, but can be scheduled afterwards

Numbing and Preparation
The procedure starts by applying numbing eye drops to ensure comfort. An eyelid speculum is then used to keep your eye open, while gentle suction stabilizes it for precision.
Reshaping the Cornea
Using the VisuMax femtosecond laser, a precise lenticule is created within the cornea, along with a small 4mm opening—customized to correct your specific refractive error.
Removing the Lenticule
The lenticule is gently extracted through the tiny incision, reshaping the cornea and correcting the vision problem.
Vision Correction
By removing the lenticule, the cornea is reshaped to properly focus light on the retina, resulting in clearer and sharper vision.
Healing and Recovery
After the procedure, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous activities like contact sports and dusty environments to support a smooth recovery.
Take the first step toward clear vision! Schedule a consultation today to find out if you’re a candidate for this advanced, blade-free vision correction procedure.
Immediate Post-Surgery Period
After your SMILE procedure, you may experience mild discomfort, light sensitivity, and blurry vision. These are normal as your eyes begin the healing process. You’ll be provided with protective goggles to wear for several days to avoid accidental rubbing of your eyes.
First 24–48 Hours
Rest your eyes frequently during this period. Your doctor will prescribe lubricating eye drops to keep your eyes comfortable and reduce dryness. It’s normal to notice fluctuations in your vision as your eyes adjust and stabilize.
First Month of Recovery
Most patients see a significant improvement in their vision within the first month. Dryness and discomfort typically decrease, and many patients find they no longer need glasses or contact lenses.
Long-Term Recovery
Optimal vision results are usually achieved within a few months. Continue following your post-operative care plan, including using eye drops and protecting your eyes as advised, to maintain the best possible outcome.
