    [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!

    This is a hospital I discovered at a hospital event. It's great that they provide detailed explanations to help patients who have a lack of understanding about LASIK and LASEK.

  • 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.
