SMILE pro Why Shinsegae Eye Center?
Power of clinical data
0+
Years of accumulated SMILE surgery expertise
yields surgical design values optimized for each patient's eyes.
No-wait system
4units owned
Two VISUMAX 800 and two VISUMAX 500 units
run together for optimal surgery without delays.
Pioneer adoption in Korea
First introduced
Only 25 clinics nationwide were first to introduce SMILE pro,
and in Gwangju·Jeonnam, we are the only clinic to pioneer it.

Gwangju Shinsegae Eye Center
SMILE pro perfected
Shinsegae×VISUMAX 800
Overwhelming speed in just 10 seconds
Laser exposure shortened to under 10 seconds,
reducing eye stress and infection risk.
Automatic centration correction
Automatically detects subtle eye rotation and astigmatism axis
for precise vision correction with less error.
Zero pressure sensation
An open-feel robotic-arm system
keeps you comfortable throughout surgery.
SMILE pro advantages
Ultra-precise lenticule separation
Uniform laser application reduces corneal deformation
and enables smooth separation.
Micro-movement detection
Detects subtle eye movement in real time
and automatically corrects the visual axis center.
Precise astigmatism correction
Corrects astigmatism axis rotation
for more accurate
astigmatism correction.
More precise vision correction with CentraLign & OcuLign
Real-time eye-center trackingCentraLign
Detects subtle eye movement during surgery to keep
the laser exposure position more accurate.Precise astigmatism-axis correctionOcuLign
Corrects astigmatism-axis rotation to deliver the laser
more accurately at the planned correction position.

A more refined laser determines the quality of your vision
SMILE pro delivers the laser precisely where needed with uniform laser spacing, ultra-precision scanning, and fast exposure speed.
It reduces bubble clustering and corneal-deformation burden, enabling smoother, gentler separation that supports faster visual recovery.
Conventional SMILE
24-second laser exposure
If bubbles form during laser exposure,
surrounding tissue may be affected temporarily.
SMILE pro (SMILE® pro)
Under 10 seconds laser exposure
The 2MHz ultra-fast laser completes surgery before bubble effects reach surrounding tissue,
helping reduce stress on corneal tissue.

Precautions After SMILE
2
Makeup
Basic makeup is fine from the day after surgery,
powder and eyeshadow after 1 week,
mascara and eyeliner after 2 weeks
3
Daily Activity
Light activity is fine the next day— don't overdo it,
and return to normal activity from day two
4
Going Out
Protect your healing eyes from UV outdoors —
protective glasses or sunglasses are recommended
5
Alcohol
Alcohol can cause inflammation after surgery,
so avoid it completely for at least one week
and avoid heavy drinking for about two weeks
6
Swimming
Avoid pools and places prone to eye infections
for about two weeks after surgery
7
Driving
Take extra care for 2–3 weeks,
especially when driving at night
8
Exercise
Ball sports can impact your healing eyes, so
avoid intense sports for one month
9
Screen Time
Fine from the day after surgery, but for 1–2 weeks
your eyes may tire easily, so
avoid long work sessions
Surgery is only complete with aftercare
More than a one-off procedure — we'll be your lifelong vision partner.
SYSTEM 01
Data-driven precision analysis
Beyond routine exams, we cross-analyse 60+ test datasets to design safety around data and help block surgical complication risks in advance.
SYSTEM 02
Intensive monitoring right after surgery
From the moment surgery ends through the first 24 hours of early recovery, we activate an intensive early-care guide and emergency response system so you can rest assured.
SYSTEM 03
Regular vision tracking program
We track vision changes on set schedules after surgery — day 1, week 1, month 1 — and support stable visual recovery with personalised eye-drop prescriptions and management.
SYSTEM 04
Lifelong vision primary-care system
Even after vision correction, we consider age-related conditions such as presbyopia and cataract, and stay your lifelong partner managing eye health through every stage of life.
