Abstract

This paper represents overview of current literature on utility SMILE-derived (Small Excision Lenticule Extraction) corneal lenticules in refractive surgery and treatment of ectatic disease. Mostly this are unique and pioneer studies. Conclusions seem to be encouraging and warrant further in-depth research on that matter despite its results being derived from relatively small study samples.
