The Technology

Two of the world's most advanced lenticule lasers — available through Cnect's partner hospitals in Busan.

01 · SMILE pro — ZEISS VISUMAX 800

Faster laser.
Gentler recovery.

ZEISS VISUMAX 800 femtosecond laser for SMILE pro

SMILE pro runs on the ZEISS VISUMAX 800. Pulsing at 2 MHz, it shapes the corrective lenticule in under 10 seconds per eye, and your surgeon removes it through a small keyhole incision — no flap. Built-in CentraLign and OcuLign guidance keep the treatment precisely centred, even if your eye rotates slightly.

02 · SILK — J&J Vision ELITA

Smoother surface.
Sharper vision.

Johnson & Johnson Vision ELITA femtosecond laser for SILK

SILK (Smooth Incision Lenticular Keratomileusis) is performed on the ELITA femtosecond laser. Its ultra-fast, ultra-precise pulses are placed edge to edge for an exceptionally smooth tissue surface, creating an industry-first biconvex lenticule designed for crisp quality of vision. Fewer corneal nerves are cut, supporting a healthy eye surface and next-day recovery.
