ReLEx SMILE or Contoura Vision for me?
Hello, I am possibly eligible for both SMILE and Contoura Vision, which should I opt for and why? Both are equally affordable and I can't seem to find a reason to prefer one over the other (except maybe that contoura vision has 10% rate of achieving vision over 20/20 - better than regular human eye). I'd appreciate if you guide me through your professional opinions
RE: sph+1.75 # cyl-1.60 # axis 15 # VA 20/20
LE: sph+1.50 # cyl-1.25 # axis 7 # VA 20/20
I.P.D. 69
Healthy eye pressure, very mild dry eyes (not very dry) diagnosed with astigmatism/myopia
In my specific case, which would make more sense?
Thanks
