What is ReLEx Smile?
The ReLEx Smile procedure (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is not only very sensitive and almost painless, but also a “flap” (corneal flap) method. This modern technology offered by the Aesthetic Myra team can correct complex visual impairments such as nearsightedness up to -10 diopters and corneal curvature up to 5 diopters. There are virtually no risks and side effects, as ReLex Smile, as the name suggests, only needs a minimal cut of 2-3mm in length. This method is also used by people who have very thin corneas or who often experience dry eyes in Turkey.
Compared to other laser techniques such as LASIK, ReLEx Smile is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require flaps or microeratomes.
ReLEx Smile Treatment procedure
The ReLEx Smile process, called femosecond, is not sensitive like other laser eye techniques, that is, it does not depend on many different parameters such as corneal thickness, corneal condition, water content. This eye laser technology takes place in a closed system, meaning the laser is only attached to the eye with a contact lens shaped to the desired size. In this case, the patient does not necessarily have to work. For example, during LASIK treatment, the eye may need to be directed to a specific point of light.
Also, the eye tracking control system helps detect eye movements so laser therapy in ReLEx Smile can be interrupted directly from the start to avoid possible sources of error. The result of this modern technology can also be verified in advance. Also, it is very easy to use after treatment. General laser eye treatment with the ReLEx Smile technique takes about 5 minutes per eye and is largely painless.
Main benefits of ReLEx Smile Treatment in Turkey
In addition to the extreme sensitivity in the application of the femosecond laser, the fact that no pain occurs, the incision in the eye is minimal and the patient does not have to work like other eye operations, the whole procedure takes only about 10 minutes. However, there are other advantages as there are almost no restrictions 20-30 minutes after the ReLEx Smile treatment. You can take a shower, exercise right away, or sleep without a sleeping bag. Also, if you opt for laser eye surgery in Turkey with Aesthetic Myra, you will save a lot of money! Do you have any question? We will be happy to answer and assist you in detail.

What are the conditions suitable for the ReLEx Smile method?
The innovative ReLEx Smile method is suitable for patients with the following diopters:
- Myopia: -10 to -1 diopter
- Astigmatism (astigmatism): -5 to -1 diopter.
- This technology is not suitable for hyperopia. Whether ReLEx Smile is suitable for you will be determined after personal treatment by the surgeon.
How do surgeons apply the ReLEx Smile method?
The ReLEx Smile technique is the innovative application of Femto-LASIK without the need for an excimer laser. With ReLEx Smile, eye laser treatments have become much more precise, faster and safer. The laser only requires a minimum aperture of two millimeters to prepare a three-dimensional lentil (slice) in the area of the inner cornea. The disc is then removed with this laparoscopy technique.
Visual impairment is corrected by correcting the shape and tissue volume of the removed lens. This delicate procedure reduces the problem of tear formation and keeps the cornea stable. Therefore, the ReLEx Smile technique is particularly suitable for patients who wear contact lenses and experience dry eyes.
Is eye surgery painful?
No. Local anesthesia is performed by first dripping drops into the eye. Thus, you will not feel pain during the procedure. If you wish, you can take a mild sedative before the operation. During the treatment, the surgeon will give you detailed information.
However, every patient responds differently to laser treatments. Sometimes it may feel as if there is a foreign body in the eye. Normally, patients recover after a day and feel nothing. After the ReLEx Smile treatment, you should rest and use your eye drops regularly.
How is the recovery process after ReLEx Smile application?
The ReLEx smile procedure is a minimally performed operation and usually heals completely after about twenty minutes. Afterwards, you don’t need to take any major precautions and you can shower and exercise. Protective tapes are also not required for the night. At the first follow-up check shortly after the procedure, you will receive some instructions from your doctor that you must follow. You can usually have full vision in about two to four days.
What is the price of laser treatment with ReLEx Smile technology?
For laser eye treatment with ReLEx Smile, you pay 1,800 Euro per eye in Germany. Private health insurance sometimes covers all or some of the costs. Official health insurance does not currently cover the costs of laser eye surgery. However, some clinics/institutions offer a flexible payment plan.
What are the risks of the ReLEx Smile method?
Serious side effects in laser treatment, which has this advanced technology, are very rare. In order for the healing process to be stable, you must follow your follow-up appointments. The same applies to the doctor’s instructions. Any laser eye treatment has no side effects and is easy to treat.
