i'm trying to decide between contoura vision and smile surgery but i'm confused about the side effects and why contoura is considered better even though it's cheaper than smile can you explain which one would be the better option overall

Contoura offers better customization for corneal irregularities; SMILE has less dry eye and no flap. Choose based on your corneal thickness and lifestyle. Consult a refractive surgeon for suitability.

My doctor noticed an old faint linear scar on my cornea during an exam but said it's normal and didn't suggest surgery why wouldn't they recommend removing it if it's a scar? Should I be concerned about it affecting my vision later?
