title: [SMILE: Re-Treatment Options - Techniques and Results].
abstract: With a rate of less than 2 %, retreatment after SMILE is rare. If a touch-up is required, there are different options to choose from: surface ablation (PRK/LASEK) with Mitomycin C, the standard femto-flap procedure with the same parameters, the CIRCLE procedure, which extends the previous SMILE interface into a flap, or the innovative but off-label capless SMILE procedure, which preserves all the advantages of SMILE.
