I went to the hospital because my eyes were hurting and got diagnosed with cataracts. They prescribed me eye drops for 5 weeks and gave me artificial tears. They said to have the surgery in the fall.

I had Cataract Surgery four months ago. When I tried to get a new pair of glasses, I was told that I needed a glasses prescription. I went to the Eye Clinic and had several vision tests. They said that the eye I had surgery on only had Presbyopia. But the other eye had astigmatism, nearsightedness, and Presbyopia as well. . . . They said that if I wore glasses in this condition, the difference in vision between my eyes would be so great that I might feel dizzy, so they told me to keep wearing the glasses I had used before the surgery. They said it might feel awkward for a while, but recommended not wearing glasses when going out for the time being.

I have detailed follow-up exams every six months to check for glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. I went in for my regular exam on August 14, and thankfully everything came back normal, so I was relieved. During the national health screening, they said I was at risk for macular degeneration, so I got the detailed exam.

It’s been 2 years since my Cataract Surgery, and it still seems absolutely perfect. I have no trouble reading small print and no glare or halos, and I can still see so well. It really feels like one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. So today, I came in for my husband’s Cataract Surgery. The doctor was kind, and the staff were all so friendly too, which put me in a great mood. So good—I highly recommend it!

The hospital is a bit old, but the doctor takes great care of patients. My mom also visits here regularly for her cataracts and is very satisfied.

Three years after having cataract surgery, my vision became blurry, so I went to the eye clinic. They said sweat had gotten into my eye and caused inflammation, and told me to be careful.

After Cataract Surgery, I was able to get back to my daily life right away without being hospitalized, and I liked that there was no unnecessary treatment. When I checked in, they also promptly let me know the number of people waiting via KakaoTalk.

The eye drops I used to take every 2 hours are now 3 times a day. I should apply sunscreen so it doesn’t get in my eyes. The next appointment date is Monday. They said the cataract surgery is semi-permanent.

2 frequently asked questions
I can see well for most things, but the text in books and on my phone is not clear. How much does presbyopia surgery cost? How long will the results last? I was born in 1972.
Hello. This is Clear Seoul Eye Clinic. For presbyopia, both presbyopic LASIK and multifocal lenses are possible. However, if you have good distance vision, presbyopic LASIK may be less suitable, and it is advisable to proceed with multifocal lens treatment. Unlike presbyopic LASIK, the multifocal lens implantation is a permanent procedure. Thank you.
