In this insightful episode of the Docpods podcast, renowned ophthalmologists Dr. Rahil Chaudhary(MD, of Eye7Hospitals) and Dr. Ibrahime Asif delve into the intricacies of modern eye surgeries. They discuss the effects of various procedures like LASIK, SMILE, and Contoura on eye health, particularly focusing on the issue of post-surgery dryness. 👉The podcast begins with a pivotal question: Do older eye surgery technologies such as LASIK, SMILE, and Contoura lead to prolonged dryness? Dr. Chaudhary highlights that patients often experience dryness for 3 to 4 months post-surgery, a concern for many considering these procedures. 👉Dr. Ibrahime Asif then addresses the intriguing claim that SMILE surgery might result in comparatively less dryness. He explains the root cause of dryness in these laser treatments - damage to corneal nerves. Each procedure, be it Contoura LASIK, PRK, EPI-Contoura, or SMILE, inevitably harms these nerves, leading to dryness. However, SMILE stands out due to the unique biconvex shape of the lenticule removed during the procedure. This shape is believed to cause less damage to the corneal nerves, thereby reducing the severity and duration of dryness. Dr. Asif emphasizes that with minimized nerve damage, patients can expect a less demanding recovery process and a lower likelihood of prolonged dryness. 💬Stay Informed Subscribe to our channel for more updates on SiLK and the future of vision care. 👍Don't forget to like, share, and comment on this video to spread the word about this revolutionary technology! ⍟ ⍟ ⍟ 👨🏻⚕ABOUT DR.
