Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) at Joint Warfighter Refractive Surgery Center (JWRSC): Patient Outcomes

Abstract

Largest study of POM6 and POM12 SMILE outcomes at Military Facility. High Myopic Treatments (MRSE less than or equal to -6.0 D) and High Cylinder Treatments (greater than or equal to 2.0 D) lead to higher risk of not achieving UDVA 20/20 atPOM12. Future studies are needed to compare SMILE versus LASIK or PRK for High Myopic and High Cylinder Eyes to determine best treatment. Minimal postoperative complications at POM12.
