    [Incheon Location] Vision Correction Event

    The atmosphere of the hospital at first was spacious and the lighting was comfortable. The places for eye examinations were also gathered in one spot, making it convenient for testing. I was eligible for both LASIK and LASEK, but I went with LASEK on the recommendation of the doctor. Fortunately, the surgery was also possible on the same day. The doctor was kind, and all the hospital staff were attentive and considerate. The teachers in the operating room were also great. During the surgery, they gave me a stuffed toy to hold onto, which helped me a lot as I was nervous. On the first day, my eyes were very stinging and tears were flowing like a tap. However, from the moment I started using the drops, the tears lessened significantly, and my eyes opened slightly. Contrary to my worries, by the next day, I was able to walk around alone in a dim state. However, my eyes suddenly became itchy, so today, at the doctor's suggestion, I received a prescription for antihistamines. It's interesting how the clarity is gradually improving, with notable differences from yesterday to today and morning to evening.

    Personalized Fifth-Generation Smart SMILE LASIK

    6 days post-LASIK, no pain and daily activities are possible! It looks a bit wobbly and there is some glare, but I'm monitoring it as the recovery period is one month. ✌️ It seems good!

    I’ve been coming here since I was in school. I heard from a lot of my classmates that they’re good at LASIK and LASEK, so I trust them and keep coming back! I usually just get checkups, so they put in dilating drops? every time and then examine my eyes. I visit once a year, and I’m satisfied every time.

    I was looking into vision correction for my son, who's in the military, and came across a great promotional price along with good reviews, so we came in for a consultation on the first day of his leave. I initially wanted him to have SMILE surgery, but after the examination, it turned out that LASIK was more suitable for him. I was a bit surprised, but thanks to the kind explanation from Dr. Pung Gye Hyun and the detailed and friendly advice from the consultant, I learned what LASIK is all about and made a deposit for the appointment. My son will be having the Wavefront LASIK procedure, and since we need to remove 20% of the cornea, we decided to do corneal strengthening at the same time. Since his leave is only 4 days long, there won't be enough time to remove the protective contact lenses, so we plan to come back for the procedure at the end of January during his final leave. I hope he can have a successful vision correction in January so that he can comfortably exercise without glasses!!

  • Should I undergo LASIK or LASEK, and how much will it cost?

    Hello. We apologize for the delay in our response. First, LASIK and LASEK are different surgical methods. LASIK is a procedure suitable for patients with a thick cornea and has a faster recovery, whereas LASEK can generally be performed for most patients. A decision should be made based on the results of your examination. The cost for LASEK is 690,000 KRW, and for LASIK, it is 1,290,000 KRW. Thank you.
