Doctor David Donate, an internationally renowned eye surgeon
He constantly tries to improve existing surgical techniques, and more specifically, the SMILE technique that he contributed to enhance, inventing the “Sub-Cap Lenticule Extraction” in 2015. This is a modification of the SMILE procedure that eye surgeons use to correct any remaining myopia after SMILE. This approach preserves the advantages of SMILE by helping to avoid pain, discomfort and dry eye, and maintain the structural properties of the cornea.
