Prof. Maja Bohač at the 2nd ARSM in Ljubljana
The meeting brought together 39 speakers from 12 countries.
Prof. Maja Bohač, MD, PhD, Head of the Department of Refractive Surgery at Svjetlost Eye Clinic, gave an invited lecture titled “Current State of Lenticular Extraction” at the 2nd Alps Refractive Surgery Meeting (ARSM). The meeting took place in Ljubljana on 6-7 November 2026 and brought together 39 speakers from 12 countries. ARSM brings together ophthalmologists from Slovenia, Austria, Italy and beyond, continuing the more than twenty-year tradition of the Ljubljana Refractive Surgery Meeting.
In her lecture, Prof. Bohač gave an overview of lenticular extraction, the third generation of laser vision correction. In this procedure, a laser shapes a thin disc of tissue inside the cornea, which is then removed through a small incision, without the flap used in LASIK. This makes the procedure minimally invasive, with a fast recovery.
Svjetlost Eye Clinic is one of the leading centres for this method. Prof. Bohač performed the first SmartSight procedure in Europe, and the clinic is a reference and development centre for SCHWIND.
