A prospective, randomised contralateral-eye trial led by Dr John Kanellopoulos compared wavelight plus laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) to SMILE pro* (small incision lenticule extraction, VisuMax 800*) in 60 patients (120 eyes).1
These results confirmed Wavelight Plus as an excellent solution for personalised LASIK, delivering excellent predictability, accuracy, and stability.1
