Our Flagship Procedure

SMILE PRO

The most refined flapless, bladeless laser vision correction we offer — built on the Ziemer FEMTO Z8 platform for precision, comfort and a recovery-conscious result. Designed for higher expectations.

Why SMILE PRO

Refined vision correction for higher expectations

SMILE PRO corrects myopia and astigmatism through a tiny keyhole incision — no corneal flap is created. The result is a structurally stronger cornea, a lower dry-eye risk, and a recovery designed around your daily life.

Flapless & Bladeless Tiny 2–4 mm keyhole incision Lower post-op dry-eye risk Stronger corneal integrity Clear vision the next day Travel-friendly, same-day surgery

SMILE PRO at EYEONCE is delivered as Clear SMILE Supra — every treatment plan carries the same clinical backing behind it.

Certificates of excellence for international accreditation and clinical outcomes, a fully doctor-led process from evaluation through recovery, and a dedicated international patient support team.

The technology behind Clear SMILE Supra is the Ziemer FEMTO LDV Z8 femtosecond laser, delivering high-rate, low-energy treatment with advanced docking stability.

The procedure follows five precise steps: detailed eye analysis maps your unique corneal shape, then the laser creates a smooth lenticule inside the cornea — a thin disc of tissue sculpted beneath the epithelium and Bowman's layer without ever creating a corneal flap, a technique known internationally as ReLEx SMILE (refractive lenticule extraction).

The lenticule is then gently removed through a keyhole incision under 4mm, the cornea naturally settles into its new shape, and structured aftercare guides recovery.

Because lenticule creation and extraction happen through such a small opening, SMILE PRO delivers a smoother corneal interface and lower energy exposure than earlier SMILE generations — advantages EYEONCE positions specifically for patients seeking more than conventional SMILE.

It particularly suits active lifestyles, uneven or asymmetric eye conditions between the two eyes, and busy travel schedules where a quick, low-downtime procedure matters.

Every SMILE PRO plan runs through the same four-stage precision system: a detailed pre-op exam, 1:1 customized treatment planning, a doctor-led laser procedure, and structured follow-up care.

Recovery is comfort-first — most patients notice clearer vision from the next day, supported by predictable follow-up scheduling and premium post-op guidance rather than a one-size-fits-all recovery plan.

What sets SMILE PRO apart clinically is a shorter treatment flow, a higher-quality lenticule interface from more advanced pulse and scanning technology, lower energy delivery for better tissue preservation, and AI-enhanced treatment planning tailored to each patient's unique eyes — EYEONCE's premium choice for modern SMILE-based vision correction.

Good to Know

SMILE PRO — questions & answers

Everything you need to know about recovery, precautions and our lifetime aftercare commitment.

Yes. EYEONCE is a Seoul-government-registered clinic for international patients, with in-house interpreters on-site in English, Chinese, Mongolian and Thai. From your first WhatsApp message through surgery and follow-up, there is no language barrier.
For laser vision correction (SMILE PRO, SMILE LASIK, LASIK/LASEK) a stay of about 3-5 days is typical — exam and surgery can often be done the same day, with a next-day check-up before you fly home. For ICL and lens procedures we usually recommend 5-7 days. Send us your travel dates on WhatsApp and we will build the schedule around you.
Contact lenses reshape the cornea, so accurate measurement needs a break: stop soft lenses at least 5-7 days before your exam, hard / RGP lenses at least 3 weeks, and ortho-k (dream) lenses at least 1 month. If you are unsure, message us on WhatsApp.
In the rare case an enhancement is needed, it is covered by our lifetime aftercare. Please contact us on WhatsApp first (+82-10-6308-0984) — we will review a detailed re-examination and, where appropriate, arrange the re-treatment. Reaching out on WhatsApp is the fastest way to get guided next steps.
Both are flapless keyhole procedures. SMILE PRO is our most advanced generation — refined laser workflow, faster treatment and enhanced precision and centration — making it our first recommendation for suitable candidates who want the premium option.
No — the eye is fully numbed with topical anesthetic drops beforehand, so you feel pressure rather than pain during the roughly 10-minute procedure. Most patients describe mild scratchiness for the first day, easily managed with prescribed drops.
Most patients see clearly enough for daily life by the next morning. Vision continues to sharpen and stabilize over the following weeks. Because the cornea heals gradually, some fluctuation or temporary haziness in the first 1–3 months is completely normal.
Do not rub your eyes; wear the protective shields while sleeping for the first few nights. Avoid swimming pools, saunas and steam rooms for about a month, and eye makeup for around two weeks. Wear sunglasses outdoors, avoid dusty or smoky environments, and use every prescribed eye drop and artificial tear exactly as instructed.
Stop wearing soft contact lenses for 5–7 days before your exam (2–3 weeks for hard / RGP lenses) so the cornea returns to its natural shape for accurate measurement. Bring your glasses and any prescription records, skip eye makeup on exam day, and arrange transport or a companion for surgery day.
As the cornea heals, your vision recovers alongside it, so temporary blurriness can occur. We recommend avoiding electronic screens as much as possible for 1–3 months and diligently using your prescribed eye drops and artificial tears. If you feel a foreign-body sensation or pain, please visit us right away — or see a local ophthalmologist first and then contact us.
Yes. If anything seems wrong after surgery, contact us at any time. Through a detailed re-examination we will identify the cause and, where appropriate, help arrange a re-treatment. Our commitment to your vision does not end when you fly home.
Candidacy depends on your prescription, corneal thickness and eye health — confirmed by our pre-op precision exam. Costs vary by procedure, and same-day surgery is available for suitable candidates. Message us on WhatsApp with your prescription for a personalized quote.
A Real Story

"My myopia was -6.00. SMILE PRO changed everything."

Like many of our international patients, this began with a lifetime of glasses and contacts. After a full pre-op precision exam confirmed suitability, SMILE PRO was completed in about ten minutes. By the next morning — clear vision, no glasses, no regrets. It is the story we hear again and again.
