At Elite LASIK & Cataract, we’ve always prioritized providing quality and quantity: The best options, and the widest range of procedures possible to ensure that our patients can get the vision correction that’s best for their eyes.

With SMILE eye surgery, we’re able to provide both! SMILE is an exceptional procedure that’s ideal for many patients, and we’re proud to include it among our many offerings. Our SMILE doctors can help you decide if SMILE is right for you during your free consultation!

What Is SMILE Laser Eye Surgery?

SMILE is one of the most advanced LASIK alternatives on the market today — it’s minimally invasive, meaning a quicker and easier recovery!

During SMILE, we use an extremely precise laser to create a tiny disc of tissue in the cornea. This disc is then removed through a tiny microincision to painlessly reshape the eye and correct the problems causing your vision issues.

SMILE is FDA Approved to correct mild to severe nearsightedness (plus some astigmatism if necessary) making it an excellent option even for patients who have been told that LASIK or PRK won’t be a good fit for them.

Our State-Of-The-Art Surgical Technology

SMILE eye surgery uses the ZEISS VisuMax® femtosecond laser, a medical technology we’ve come to love. It’s efficient, unbelievably precise, and can make even the tiniest adjustments in real time to ensure that your SMILE laser eye surgery is perfectly adapted to your unique vision correction needs.

Benefits of SMILE

Due to the minimally invasive process, SMILE can be completed quicker and with less interaction with the eye than similar procedures. This makes it a great fit for patients with sensitive eyes, or anyone looking for the fastest possible recovery!

Perhaps most importantly, SMILE eye surgery has nearly identical success rates to LASIK and related surgeries. And, if you’re concerned about potential side effects like dry eye after surgery, SMILE carries a lower risk than other vision correction procedures.

Our Experienced SMILE Surgical Team

At Elite LASIK & Cataract, every member of our team is here to give you the best experience and outcomes possible. You’ll get plenty of face time with your doctors and surgical team — in fact, our insistence on giving patients time with their surgeon before the procedure is something you won’t find with other practices in the area.

We want you to be informed, comfortable, and treated like a member of our family every step of the way, from your free consultation to your final post-operative checkup.

Do I Qualify for SMILE Eye Surgery?

Most adults with stable vision prescriptions meet the requirements for SMILE laser eye surgery — in fact, because SMILE is so gentle on the eye, many patients qualify for it who wouldn’t qualify for other eye surgeries!

SMILE is affordable, especially when compared to a lifetime of eyewear. We accept a variety of payment and financing options so you can get SMILE eye surgery when you need it!

If you’re interested in SMILE eye surgery near you, set up your free consultation. We’ll assess your eye health and discuss your options to ensure that SMILE is a great fit for you!

I rarely leave reviews but I felt I absolutely had to here to help others who are researching their best option for lasik or any of their corrective surgeries. Seriously look no further!! The staff here are beyond friendly, accommodating, empathetic, knowledgeable, helpful, and you can just tell they’re not just following some set of company guidelines that tell them to be nice to clients, they genuinely care about you. I went in for my free consultation at the end of July and was told while I didn’t qualify for lasik (based on shape of my cornea I think?) I did qualify for PRK and the doctor thoroughly explained that procedure and what it would entail from surgery day all the way through recovery and beyond. I was scheduled for PRK on Aug 5th and from the moment I walked in til the moment I left on surgery day, I was extremely well taken care of and I COULD SEE!! For the first time in 25 years I could see without glasses. The doctors told me what each day of recovery would look like and they were spot on!! I experienced no pain, but some mild irritation on recovery day 3 and sensitivity to light and eyes were watery. Vision was blurry for about a week, so I did have to take a couple more days off work than I planned to (doctor told me I should have planned for a week ahead of time, I should have listened.) For about a month after surgery, I wasn’t quite 20/20 but I could see! Seeing signs off in the distance was still a bit blurred but could definitely see well enough to function. I just kept slowly but surely gaining better eyesight as I healed. I just had my 3 month check up a couple weeks ago and I am 20/20 and can read on the 20/15 line! While PRK is a longer recovery process than lasik, it is worth it!! I wouldn’t change a thing and cannot think the doctors and their team enough. I can’t think of anywhere I’ve ever been where I’ve gotten better customer service. I hope this helps anyone who needed help making a decision on where to go for their vision!

Had my lasik done about a week & 1/2 ago and could not be more happy! Libby the technician was fantastic! Dr. Massela was great and Dr. Davis who preformed my surgery was amazing! Everyone made me feel at ease and I definitely recommend this place. I can see 20/20 and even slightly better. Thank you Elite Lasik!

The staff, the office, literally everything about this company is phenomenal. They were so helpful and accommodating as I traveled from out of state for the SMILE procedure. I am so grateful for how they’ve helped change my vision for the better!

I had Refractive Lens Exchange about 6 months ago and I am extremely pleased with the results. It has been life-changing to have clear, sharp vision. I can’t ever remember being able to see this well. I have not needed my contact lenses or reading glasses since the procedure. My night vision has improved dramatically. The procedure was painless, the people were wonderful, and the recovery was quick. I wish I would have had RLE years ago. Thank you, Elite!!

I had a really great experience with all the staff and front office people. Libby and Keisha were super polite and always made me feel very comfortable. While the procedure was slightly uncomfortable for the first few hours right after, it was completely worth it and when I had questions the staff answered all of them in a timely and calm manner. My vision is now 20/15 and I’m pretty sure it’s better than even before I needed contacts as a kid! Would definitely recommend and will do so for any of my friends that want the same great service as I got. Thanks!
