Question 1

Why do people have ReLEx SMILE / LASIK surgery?

Accepted Answer

Research has shown that there are four main reasons that people choose to have LASIK. They are:

Life simplification: No longer having to deal with glasses or contacts.
Independence: Freedom from dependence on glasses and/or contacts.
Performance: Ability to perform better in sports-related activities.
Ability to see 24/7 when it counts: Better vision for all occasions (e.g., during sports activities, swimming, evening out etc.)
LASIK can also increase field of vision which is restricted in spectacle wear.

Question 2

Do I need an examination first?

Accepted Answer

Prior to treatment, you will have a thorough eye examination, called a laser vision consultation, conducted at DLEI to determine whether your eyes are healthy and suitable for LVC (Laser Vision Correction) . In addition, a detailed video and computer image is taken of your eye that will detail the curvature, shape, overall smoothness and regularity of the cornea.

Question 3

How much can Laser Eye Surgery improve my vision?

Accepted Answer

This depends largely on the amount of correction required. Most people require a low to moderate degree of laser vision correction that should result in vision similar to that with glasses or contact lenses. Vision is usually blurry in the first 1-2 hoursafter the LVC procedure. After few hours vision comes back to normal.

Question 4

How long does it take to recover from Laser Eye Surgery?

Accepted Answer

We recommend you plan to have laser vision correction when you can afford 2 days to relax and enjoy the benefits of your new vision. A postoperative visit is required at 24 hours. The healing of the eye occurs during this period so we recommend you take a day or two off from work.

Question 5

Am I a candidate for LASIK?

Accepted Answer

The decision to have laser vision correction depends on the results of a thorough preoperative evaluation. Just as you are a unique individual, each eye requires unique and careful examination with the best technology. At Dada laser eye institute, we complete a 2 hour, evaluation to determine whether or not you are a safe candidate for laser vision correction. Some basic requirements include:

A stable eyeglass prescription for at least 1 year
Best corrected vision of at least 20/40.
Healthy cornea.
No active eye disease.
Over 18 years old.

Question 7

What is SMILE?

Accepted Answer

It is an acronym standing for Small Incision Lenticule Extraction ( SMILE ) is a minimally invasive and innovative procedure. Instead of the laser ablation of the cornea, only minimal amount is lasered to create a lenticule which is then extracted through a keyhole corneal incision (compare 2mm to 20 mm used in LASIK) ReLEx and SMILE are same but both terminologies are used commonly worldwide.
