Introduction
Welcome to Bharti Eye Foundation, where advanced
refractive-correction procedures are performed to enhance your vision. In this
article, we will explore the innovative technique known as Cornea
Lenticule Extraction (CLE) and how it is revolutionizing refractive surgery.
With a focus on Bharti Eye Foundation's expertise in this field, we will delve
into the details of this procedure and its benefits.
What is
Cornea Lenticule Extraction (CLE)?
Cornea Lenticule Extraction, also known as Small Incision
Lenticule Extraction (SMILE), is a minimally invasive refractive surgery procedure that corrects
vision problems such as myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. This
innovative technique reshapes the cornea without the need for creating a flap,
unlike LASIK surgery.
How does Cornea Lenticule Extraction work?
During Cornea Lenticule Extraction, a femtosecond laser is used
to create a lenticule, a thin, contact lens-shaped
layer within the cornea. The lenticule is then removed through a small
incision, altering the shape of the cornea and correcting refractive errors.
Advantages of Cornea Lenticule Extraction
Cornea Lenticule Extraction offers several advantages over
traditional refractive surgery methods, making it an excellent choice for many
individuals seeking vision correction. Some key advantages include:
1. Minimally Invasive: Cornea Lenticule Extraction is a minimally invasive procedure that requires only a small incision, resulting in a faster recovery time and reduced risk of complications.
2. Flapless Technique: Unlike LASIK, Cornea Lenticule Extraction does not involve creating a corneal flap, minimizing the risk of flap-related complications.
3. Preservation of Corneal Strength: CLE preserves more of the corneal biomechanical integrity compared to other procedures, reducing the risk of long-term complications.
4. Greater Predictability: The advanced technology used in Cornea Lenticule Extraction enhances the precision of the procedure, leading to more predictable outcomes and improved visual acuity.
5. Suitable for a Wide Range of Refractive Errors: Cornea Lenticule Extraction can effectively correct myopia and astigmatism, catering to a broad range of refractive errors.

Step-by-Step Procedure at Bharti Eye
Foundation
To provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the Cornea
Lenticule Extraction process at Bharti Eye Foundation,
let's walk through the step-by-step procedure:
1. Preoperative Assessment: Before undergoing Cornea Lenticule Extraction, our experienced ophthalmologists conduct a thorough preoperative assessment to evaluate your eye health and determine your eligibility for the procedure.
2. Customized Treatment Plan: Based on the assessment results, our ophthalmologists develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal outcomes.
3. Anesthesia Administration: Before the procedure begins, a local anesthetic eye drop is administered to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.
4. Lenticule Creation: Using the femtosecond laser, our skilled surgeons create a precise lenticule within the cornea. This step involves the application of laser energy in a highly controlled manner.
5. Lenticule Extraction: A small incision is made to access the lentic
