Ophthalmology clinics, treatments, and reviews at a glance

Vision costs 1,000~6,000,000 KRW per clinic, with 2,217 verified reviews on Cashdoc. The Vision Correction category includes LASIK and LASEK, SMILE LASIK, ICL Surgery, and Presbyopia and Cataract Surgery. It is mainly explored by people who want to see clearly without glasses or contact lenses. The available surgical options vary depending on the condition of the cornea and the degree of vision correction needed. A comprehensive eye examination is required first to determine which option is right for you. Prices also vary by hospital, so compare your options below and consult an ophthalmologist.

LASIK/LASEK costs 790,000~2,900,000 KRW per clinic, with 59 verified reviews on Cashdoc. LASIK and LASEK are vision-correction surgeries that use lasers to reshape the cornea. In LASIK, a corneal flap is created and the tissue underneath is reshaped, while in LASEK, the surface layer is removed before correction. They are primarily sought by people with myopia or astigmatism who find wearing glasses or contact lenses inconvenient. The two procedures differ in recovery time, level of pain, and the corneal conditions for which they are suitable. Eligibility varies depending on your eye condition, so compare prices below and receive a comprehensive eye examination and consultation.

Smile LASIK costs 1,000~4,100,000 KRW per clinic, with 150 verified reviews on Cashdoc. SMILE LASIK is a laser vision correction surgery that does not require a large corneal incision. A laser creates a thin piece of tissue inside the cornea, which is then removed through a small opening to correct vision. Unlike LASIK, which requires opening the cornea like a flap, SMILE LASIK involves a much smaller incision. It is mainly sought by people looking to correct myopia and astigmatism. Depending on your eye condition, you may not be eligible for the procedure, and prices may vary by hospital. Compare your options below and schedule a consultation with a specialist.

Presbyopia/Cataract costs 10,000~6,000,000 KRW per clinic, with 1,719 verified reviews on Cashdoc. Cataract Surgery replaces the cloudy natural lens of the eye with an artificial lens. Whether presbyopia is corrected depends on which lens is implanted. It is mainly considered by people with blurred vision or difficulty reading nearby text due to presbyopia. Monofocal and multifocal lenses differ in the distances at which they provide clear focus. Recovery is required after surgery, and prices can vary significantly depending on the lens. Compare your options below and consult an ophthalmologist.

Lens Insertion costs 3,900,000~5,800,000 KRW per clinic, with 61 verified reviews on Cashdoc. ICL Surgery is a vision-correction procedure that places a special lens inside the eye without removing any corneal tissue. The lens is positioned inside the eye to function like eyeglasses. It is commonly considered by people with thin corneas or high myopia who may not be suitable candidates for laser vision correction. Unlike LASIK and LASEK, which reshape the cornea, the lens can be removed if necessary. Postoperative recovery and regular checkups are required, so compare prices below and consult an ophthalmologist at an Eye Clinic.

Eyes costs 10,000~2,200,000 KRW per clinic, with 10,000 verified reviews on Cashdoc. Eye surgery reshapes the eyes through procedures such as double-eyelid surgery, eye-opening procedures, and ptosis correction. It improves the eye size and crease by adjusting the skin and muscles of the eyelids. It is commonly considered by people concerned about a sleepy-looking eye shape or their double-eyelid crease. Incisional and non-incisional techniques may differ in recovery time and how long the results last. As recovery time is required after surgery, compare prices below and consult with a specialist before making your decision.
