As refractive surgery becomes more common, ophthalmic technologies are constantly improving and advancing. Among the most prominent advanced refractive surgery technologies today are SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight – solutions trusted by many experts to deliver optimal vision improvement for patients.
SmartSurf ACE Rated by optometrists as a modern, safe, gentle, and precise technique, it offers customizable, multi-tasking supplementary treatments: corneal scarring, corneal dystrophy, post-Phaco refractive error correction, post-TransPRK haze treatment, etc. Speaking about SmartSight technology, at the SCHWINDAY event, when analyzing a clinical case with a patient suffering from severe myopia and astigmatism, where the corneal thickness was not excessive compared to the degree of myopia and astigmatism, the doctors also stated that after only one day of surgery, visual acuity could reach 12/10. The cornea showed almost no signs of edema, and the refractive parameters measured by the automated measuring device yielded very impressive results.
What are the standout features of SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight?
What are SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight refractive surgery technologies? What are the differences between these two technologies and how are they applied?
Smartsurf ACE | SmartSight |
SmartSurf ACE is a non-contact refractive surgery technology that uses an Excimer laser to reshape the corneal surface without the need for flap creation. | SmartSight is a refractive surgery method that utilizes a Femtosecond Laser technique to split the corneal stroma, minimizing invasiveness. |
Precise corneal processing in Step by step, ensuring safety. The entire process is performed on a Schwind AMARIS machine. | No flap is created, and invasiveness to the cornea is minimized. The entire procedure is performed using a Schwind Atos machine. |
SmartSurf ACE combines the benefits of the non-contact TransPRK surface treatment with SCHWIND's advanced SmartPulse technology, resulting in faster vision recovery, quicker wound healing, and no side effects. You may also like  When is the appropriate time for refractive error correction surgery?Refractive surgery (for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, etc.) is indicated for individuals 18 years of age and older with stable vision for at least 6-12 months. New techniques in treating refractive errors are being applied, but proper indication is crucial. SmartPulse technology creates a smooth surface, leading to faster vision improvement. | The CenTrax® guidance system, with its automatic torsional compensation and automatic eye-tracking, makes docking easier for the doctor, while using low energy and high speed for faster recovery time and better visual quality.

SmartSurf ACE is suitable for most patients, especially those with thin lenses and refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. | SmartSight is suitable for most patients, treating myopia up to 12.5 diopters and astigmatism up to 6 diopters. |
This method is particularly ideal for people who frequently participate in water or outdoor activities such as athletes ; or those who need high observational skills and sharp vision such as pilots or police officers… | This method minimizes corneal tissue preservation, enhances accuracy in correcting refractive errors, and significantly reduces the risk of dry eye after surgery—a very common complication . |

The outstanding benefits of the two technologies for patients.
Both SmartSurf ACE Both SmartSight and refractive surgery are modern methods that offer many outstanding benefits.
First and foremost is the improved vision; with SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight surgery, vision will improve significantly and stabilize quickly, helping patients no longer rely on eyeglasses or contact lenses.
Next is the level of safety and assurance procedures. Both SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight technologies achieve high accuracy, fast recovery times, and minimal invasiveness. These improvements enhance the patient experience and quality of life after surgery.
At the SCHWINDAY event, a seminar was held jointly by SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions Group and Viet Can Trading & Services Joint Stock Company. - Organized by SCHWIND's distributor in Vietnam , leading experts and optometrists all agreed that the use of these two technologies and SCHWIND's comprehensive ecosystem has yielded very positive results. Many patients have seen up to 98% improvement in vision, and astigmatism charts have significantly reduced after surgery. These two technologies have optimally supported doctors in examinations and surgeries, contributing to an improved quality of life for patients.
Leading ophthalmologists share their expertise at the SCHWINDAY event.
SmartSurf ACE and SmartSight technologies are advanced solutions developed by SCHWIND . As a world- leading ophthalmic laser technology company, we are always at the forefront of research and development to optimize refractive surgery techniques.
Aware that each patient has unique characteristics such as different types of refractive errors, corneal thickness, and corneal center positions, SCHWIND always focuses on minimizing the impact on the patient's corneal surface while concentrating on personalized results. This commitment ensures the most advanced and safe methods, reducing stress for both doctors and patients during surgery.
