Hi .. Before Lasik, a detailed check up is done to see of you are a good candidate for it . Contura is good . You can opt for a famtolasik  if you want ..smile is also good, but it is relatively newer technique and has certain limitations,  and some benefits ..you will have to discuss with your doctor.
