SMILE
SMILE, or small incision lenticule removal, is a newer laser vision correction procedure used to correct myopia and astigmatism associated with myopia. During a SMILE procedure, a surgeon creates a thin, contact lens-like layer beneath the surface of the cornea. This layer is then removed through a small opening in the cornea. After the tissues heal a few days later, vision is clearer. SMILE recovery is faster than LASIK but cannot correct farsightedness.
PRK
Before LASIK there wasPRK or photorefractive keratectomy.PRK is similar to LASIK in that it reshapes the cornea to correct vision. However, with PRK, the top layer of the cornea is completely removed instead of creating a flap.is still onetogetherprocedure and although the recovery time is a little longer, PRK isoften an excellent alternative tothose who cannot have LASIK. A thin cornea, chronically dry eyes, or a heavy prescription can rule out the possibility of LASIK, making PRK the best option.
LASEK
LASEK, or Laser Epithelial Keratomileusis, is similar to LASIK in that a corneal flap is created to allow the eye surgeon access to the deeper layers of the cornea. The cornea is then reshaped with a laser to correct vision. In LASEK, the corneal flap is thinner than in LASIK and only affects the epithelium, making it somewhat similar to PRK. Unlike PRK, the flap is repositioned and a bandage contact lens is placed over the flap to facilitate healing.
LASEK may be a better option than LASIK if you are severely myopic or if the thicker flap of the cornea is likely to detach. However, it is generally more uncomfortable than LASIK with a longer recovery time than LASIK and PRK.
non-laser surgery
With so much emphasis on laser eye surgery, it is often forgotten that there are non-laser assisted procedures as well.For some common eye problems, the bestcorrective eye surgeryit is without laser. The following are all commonwithout laser supportProceedings.

determine yoursCost of corrective eye surgerywill depend on several different factors. The cost of your procedure depends on:
- Your prescription and the amount of correction required
- The technology used for your procedure
