Clinical Outcomes After SMILE and Femtosecond Laser-Assisted LASIK for Myopia and Myopic Astigmatism

Abstract: Both FS-LASIK and SMILE procedures achieved good visual outcomes in the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism. SMILE had a lower induction rate of spherical aberration at 6 months postoperatively in the analysis of 6 mm diameter than that of FS-LASIK.

“…The surgical predictability was defined as the percentage of eyes corrected to within ±0.50 D of the intended correction. The present study showed that 97% of eyes after SMILE and 100% of eyes after WFG FS-LASIK met this criterion, this is also comparable to earlier studies [1720, 22–24]. No eye lost one or more lines of CDVA postoperatively in either group.…”

“…Our results show no significant differences in visual outcomes. The surgical efficacy, defined as the percentage of eyes achieving a UDVA of 20/20 or better, was similar for SMILE (90%) and wavefront-guided femtosecond LASIK (88%), consistent with previous reports [7, 8, 13, 1722]. The surgical predictability was defined as the percentage of eyes corrected to within ±0.50 D of the intended correction.…”

“…As such, there are no comparative studies of different laser platforms for this procedure. However, SMILE has been compared with femtosecond-assisted LASIK in multiple prior studies which show comparable efficacy, safety, and predictability between the two modalities, with induction of fewer HOAs with SMILE [29 & , [30][31][32]. Furthermore, SMILE appears to not only offer a biomechanical advantage to LASIK [33][34][35], but has also been shown to be less detrimental to the ocular surface and corneal innervation, thus resulting in less symptomatic dry eye disease [36][37][38][39]40 && ].…”

“…Small-incision lenticular extraction (SMILE) is a new kind of surgical procedure that avoids flap-related complications, 5 and it is gaining more attention. Both procedures have performed well in studies in all measures of safety, efficacy, and predictability 6, 7, 8. Although some previous studies have compared corneal biomechanical properties after SMILE and LASIK, the results have been inconsistent 9, 10.…”
