It is one of the most advanced laser treatments for nearsightedness and astigmatism. However, rapid developments in ophthalmology never stop, and some specialists are already offering the next evolution: the <strong>SMILE\u00ae pro<\/strong> procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a leading expert in laser eye surgery in Stuttgart, <strong>Doctor-medic Liliana B\u00e1nyai<\/strong> is the first to perform the SMILE\u00ae pro procedure at her laser center. While the surgical steps remain similar, the use of next-generation laser technology represents a significant leap forward for patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.neue-augen.de\/augen-lasern\/relex-smile\/\">SMILE\u00ae pro Laser Method \u2013 Read More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"comparing-relex%25c2%25ae-smile-and-smile%25c2%25ae-pro\">Comparing ReLEx\u00ae SMILE and SMILE\u00ae pro<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>SMILE\u00ae pro is not a completely new surgical method but rather a sophisticated evolution of the proven SMILE\u00ae procedure. Compared to LASIK or <a href=\"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/laser-eye-surgery-under-45\/femto-lasik\/\" title=\"Femto-LASIK\">Femto-LASIK<\/a>, it is significantly gentler and is frequently used to treat myopia and astigmatism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the SMILE process (<strong>Small Incision Lenticule Extraction<\/strong>), the cornea does not need to be fully opened and folded back (no &#8220;corneal flap&#8221;). Instead, only a tiny incision is made in the cornea. Through this, a so-called <strong>lenticule<\/strong>\u2014a thin disc shaped precisely to correct the specific refractive error\u2014is removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doctor-medic B\u00e1nyai introduced ReLEx\u00ae SMILE years ago as an especially gentle method. Now, as the first surgeon in Stuttgart to offer SMILE\u00ae pro, she highlights the benefits of this innovation: <em>&#8220;Unlike the conventional ReLEx\u00ae SMILE method, the laser process in SMILE\u00ae pro is even more precise and faster\u2014typically taking <strong>less than ten seconds<\/strong>. Additionally, the incision is extremely small at only two to three millimeters, which is a major advantage for eye surgery.&#8221;<\/em> This short incision promotes even faster healing with fewer complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.neue-augen.de\/augen-lasern\/relex-smile\/\">Discover the SMILE\u00ae pro Procedure Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zeiss-visumax%25c2%25ae-800-hightech-made-in-germany\">ZEISS VISUMAX\u00ae 800: High-Tech &#8220;Made in Germany<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>These advanced SMILE\u00ae pro treatments are made possible by the latest laser technology from <strong>ZEISS<\/strong>. With the <strong>VISUMAX\u00ae 800<\/strong>, Doctor-medic B\u00e1nyai relies on cutting-edge high-tech made in Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ZEISS VISUMAX\u00ae 800 is among the most advanced femtosecond lasers in the world. The computer-aided system allows for exact tracking of eye alignment and gives the surgeon greater control during the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The innovations of the VISUMAX laser don&#8217;t just benefit the surgeon; they primarily offer a higher level of <strong>comfort and safety<\/strong> for the patient. In addition to a more patient-friendly setup, the short surgical duration significantly reduces stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Doctor-medic B\u00e1nyai explains: <em>&#8220;We are currently experiencing enormous technical leaps in laser eye technology\u2014with the latest ZEISS laser as the prime example. It is vital for us as ophthalmologists to stay at the forefront of innovation to provide even patients with complex cases with modern, safe treatment.<\/em>&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.neue-augen.de\/augen-lasern\/relex-smile\/\">SMILE\u00ae pro in Stuttgart \u2013 Learn More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the first time in Stuttgart, SMILE\u00ae pro laser eye surgery is being offered at B\u00e1nyai Augenheilkunde \u2014 the further development of ReLEx SMILE\u00ae.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":91596471138,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","sseo_meta_title":"","sseo_meta_description":"","sseo_reviewed_by":0,"sseo_last_reviewed":""},"categories":[85],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-91596471137","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-laser-eye-surgery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91596471137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91596471137"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91596471137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":91596471936,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91596471137\/revisions\/91596471936"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91596471138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91596471137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91596471137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neue-augen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91596471137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
