It provides dependable correction of refraction. Compared to SMILE, LASIK gives better uncorrected visual acuity and low-contrast visual acuity. LASIK is approved for the correction of farsightedness (hypermetropia).On the other hand, SMILE has quicker recovery from post-procedure dry eyes. Since the incision is small, very few corneal nerves are damaged. Corneal sensation recovers sooner than with LASIK, which lifts a large flap of the cornea, damaging many nerves.There are some biomechanical advantages to SMILE, since it uses only a small incision. The cornea may retain more of its strength. SMILE may be better for you if you have an active lifestyle. LASIK lifts a large flap of the cornea, which may be dislodged during vigorous activity.SMILE is also more cost-effective, as it requires only one laser. The femtosecond laser creates both the lenticule and the incision for extracting it. LASIK needs a second laser (an excimer).</blockquote>
