This three-month prospective, open-label, single-center, randomized investigator initiated clinical study seeks to investigate the efficacy of DEXTENZA when placed in the lower canaliculus (study eye) compared to topical corticosteroids (control eye) following bilateral SMILE surgery. In addition, the study will evaluate physician assessment of ease of DEXTENZA insertion
