Abstract Small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE) is one of the mainstream corneal refractive surgery at present.
Although the success rate of the surgery is high, there are still some postoperative residual refractive errors
such as overcorrection, undercorrection and refractive regression, which affect postoperative vision. With
the increasing popularity of SMILE, some patients inevitably need to perform retreatment surgery. This
review discusses major advantages and disadvantages of these options and compares the visual outcomes
based on the existing literature.
