Lately, I’ve noticed that it’s hard to see things up close and that my eyes get tired easily, so I visited St. Mary’s Eye Clinic to get checked for presbyopia. At first, I thought it was simply because my eyes were tired, but I gradually started feeling more discomfort when looking at things up close in my daily life, so I thought it would be best to get a proper examination. At the clinic, I had my vision checked and my eye condition examined, and I also received a consultation about issues related to presbyopia. Based on the examination results, the doctor explained my current eye condition and presbyopia, which made it easy to understand the things I had been curious about. I realized that presbyopia is a natural change that can occur as we age, so rather than worrying too much, I felt that it’s important to have my eyes checked regularly and take care of them. Overall, I was satisfied with the visit because I was able to identify the issues that had been bothering me due to presbyopia and learn about my current eye condition.

I've been struggling with poor vision and often wore lenses. I always used to get allergic conjunctivitis every spring and fall. This time, my eyes were itchy, swollen, and tearing, so I went to another hospital and they told me it was a stye. I received oral medication, eye ointment, and eye drops, but it got worse, so I brought the medication here. The doctor said it was infected. 😭 They also told me that I was given the wrong medication at the other hospital, and prescribed me a completely different medication. I wish I had come here sooner. The doctor reassured me, saying it might sting a little when they drain it. They also mentioned that I had some corneal abrasions likely due to wearing lenses too much, and gave me medication to help them heal. Thanks to that, everything calmed down in just two days, and I’m no longer uncomfortable. They took such detailed care, and now I always come here when my eyes are bothering me. I highly recommend it!

I found it too uncomfortable to carry around lenses, so I impulsively decided to go for LASEK surgery. Still, I thought a lot about it until the very last moment being worried about side effects... I was scared since it was eye surgery, and I heard recovery could be tough, which made me even more anxious. However, during the consultation, they did all kinds of tests and didn’t just push the surgery on me, which I really appreciated. On the day of the surgery, I was very nervous, but it ended up being really quick. There was almost no pain during the surgery, and the doctor checked in on me throughout the procedure. After the surgery, I had a protective lens put in and even wore an eye shield when I got home. For a few hours, my eyes felt sore and I cried a lot. The next day when I went in for a check-up, I was relieved to hear that my recovery was going well, and they explained everything in detail. A few days later, the pain decreased significantly, and my vision gradually became clearer, especially with my naked eye - I was thrilled to see my vision was over 1.0! I hear dryness is a common side effect, so I'm really hoping it doesn’t happen to me...

I'm in my mid-40s, and I've been having blurry vision for the past couple of months. My sight has been hazy, especially with reading close text which is almost impossible, and I've also experienced some twitching in my vision. My eyes feel dry and itchy, which makes everyday life uncomfortable. On a friend's recommendation, I visited Plus Ophthalmology for a check-up. The hospital was clean and tidy, so I had a good first impression. Since it was my first visit, they said I needed some tests related to my eyes. They conducted basic vision tests, a retinal exam, cataract test, glaucoma test, and a pressure check, which took about 10 minutes as they have a systematic setup. The doctor diagnosed that I have some cloudiness in my right eye, dry eye syndrome, and astigmatism. Fortunately, there's no urgent treatment needed, so we decided to do a follow-up. He mentioned that I'm experiencing presbyopia appropriate for my age. I scheduled a regular check-up for six months later. The doctor is very kind.

Overall, this ophthalmology clinic stood out for its kindness and professionalism, and I feel I can visit again with confidence.

The screening is provided by the National Health Insurance Service. I couldn’t go last year, so I went this year because of the penalty. It wasn’t far from home—it was actually close. Shinchon Bareun Internal Medicine Clinic is on the third floor; I got off at Exit 6 of Ewha Womans University Station, crossed the crosswalk, and it was right there. I had an upper endoscopy, and since it was part of a health checkup, they also checked my eyesight and height, and did blood and urine tests. I’d heard that you were supposed to get sedation, so I considered it, but I chose to do it without sedation. The reason was that sedation costs 50,000 won, but I went ahead without it. They sprayed anesthetic into my throat twice, had me swallow it, and then inserted the endoscope while my throat was numb to examine my stomach. When the endoscope first went in, I gagged two or three times. While it was in my stomach, I could feel it, but it wasn’t uncomfortable. When they took it out, I gagged five times. If you can endure the part when they remove the endoscope, you can get through an upper endoscopy without much trouble. If you’re feeling well, I recommend doing it without sedation.

Recently, I felt like my vision was blurry even when wearing my glasses, so I visited Ace Eye Clinic. As soon as I entered, I had a vision test. I thought the letters were definitely large, but I read them completely wrong, and both the staff member conducting the test and I burst out laughing. I usually think I can see well, but the moment I entered the examination room, my confidence disappeared. The staff guided me kindly, and the examination was carried out very thoroughly. The doctor explained my current eye condition and how to take care of it in an easy-to-understand way, so all the questions I had were answered at once. As I left after the appointment, I promised myself I would cut down on using my phone, but then I caught myself checking my messages as soon as I walked out and laughed again. I was satisfied that I could receive care in such a comfortable atmosphere, and I plan to keep coming back for regular checkups.

The inside of the clinic was clean and comfortable, and I was satisfied with their friendly responses when I had questions after the consultation.

I made a health check-up appointment a week ago and came in today. It was very busy because it's the end of the year, but the nurses provided systematic guidance, and everything went smoothly. After measuring my basic vision, hearing, height, and body weight, I took a breast and chest X-ray. Following that, I carefully filled out a questionnaire on my lifestyle and medical history with the nurse’s guidance. After finishing, the nurse re-measured my blood pressure and completed the basic tests with a urine and blood test. I had to wait a while for the gastroscopy because there were many patients waiting, but seeing how skillfully and systematically the nurses worked put me at ease. When I entered the endoscopy room, the doctor and nurses double-checked my date of birth and name, provided detailed explanations about the procedure, and then administered sedation. I'm glad I was able to complete the procedure safely today.

I started seeing sudden black spots and threads that looked like black cotton, so I went to the clear eye clinic. When the nurse asked how I was doing, I explained, and after completing the vision and dilation tests, I met with the eye doctor. All the test results indicated I had floaters, and although my left eye was fine, my right eye showed signs of multiple hemorrhages and suspected vascular occlusion. They referred me to Dongguk University Hospital, which has both ophthalmology and interventional radiology. I asked if I had to go only to Dongguk University or if I could go elsewhere, and the doctor told me to figure it out myself, then provided a referral letter, allowing me to get checked at another clinic with internal medicine. Fortunately, there were no major issues, but I was told to return for another check-up in three months. Thank you to the clear eye clinic for the good care and the referral letter!

Every time I moved my eyes in the morning, I noticed something like a black thread following my vision, so I went to the ophthalmologist. After checking in, I filled out a questionnaire and had my eyesight checked again. In the consultation room, they first asked whether the symptoms were in one eye or both, and whether they appeared suddenly or gradually. After they put in eye drops to dilate my pupils, I had to wait about 20 minutes before undergoing an examination of the inside of my eye. The bright light temporarily dazzled my vision, but the exam didn't take long. The doctor said there was no problem with my retina and it appeared to be floaters, advising me to come to the hospital right away if I noticed a sudden increase in black dots or flashes of light. After the exam, I was also informed not to drive for a few hours because my near vision might be blurry. I was able to directly ask questions about things I was curious about, and the results were shown to me on a screen, making it easy to understand.

The location was great since it’s right by Exit 2 of Moran Station, so I searched for a clinic on my way to work that morning and came in. I was very happy with my experience, and I plan to come back if I ever need to. First of all, the clinic was very clean, and the nurses were lovely and kind, so I had a good first impression. I came in because I had poked my eye with the stem of a cherry tomato plant I was growing. I was in pain, worried all night, and my eye was bleeding. The director also seemed very experienced. After a simple examination, I had an MRI and waited, and I was impressed that they also checked my vision. It was to assess the current condition of my eye because of the injury. It was as detailed as getting your vision checked when ordering glasses at an optical shop, and it felt like they were carefully looking after my condition as a patient. At first, I didn’t understand why it was necessary, but I found out later and felt even more reassured. I was worried, but thankfully the swelling has gone down a lot with the antibiotic eye drops I was prescribed. I was told in the past that I had high eye pressure, so I plan to come back for a thorough examination next time~ Thank you.

I made an appointment at Gwangmyeong Samsung Best Internal Medicine and went in for a health checkup. After filling out various medical questionnaires, I had basic tests such as vision and hearing tests, balancing on one leg for 20 seconds, a chest X-ray, cervical cancer and breast cancer screening, blood work, and so on. During the upper endoscopy, a small polyp was found and removed. I sometimes experience acid reflux symptoms, with stomach acid occasionally coming up, so I was prescribed some medication. I usually had my health checkups at a general hospital, but this time I decided to try a hospital near my home. University hospitals and general hospitals are crowded, so the waiting times are long, and having to find the different examination rooms and move between floors was quite a hassle and exhausting. It was much easier here, and Dr. Taeyoon Kim, the medical director, explained my checkup results in detail. All the nurses were very kind as well... Anyway, from now on, I think I’ll be coming to Gwangmyeong Samsung Best Internal Medicine for my health checkups and internal medicine appointments.^^

My eyes had been feeling dry all the time, and by the afternoon I was even feeling like there was something in them, so I went to Bright Eye Clinic~ I thought it might be because I’ve been spending a lot of time looking at a computer lately, but they checked my eyes and explained the symptoms that can occur when they’re dry, so it was easy to understand^^ After briefly checking the condition of my eyes and my vision, I was prescribed artificial tears. Rather than prescribing several different medications, they only prescribed what I needed at the moment, so it didn’t feel like a burden 😊 They also explained how to use them and when during the day it would be best to put them in, so I followed those instructions when I got home. After using them consistently for a few days, the dry, tight feeling I used to get every afternoon was definitely less noticeable, and my eyes felt more comfortable~ I especially liked that even after spending a long time looking at my monitor, I felt less of that something-in-my-eye sensation than before 👀✨ If your eyes often feel dry, I think it might be a good idea to get them checked instead of just putting up with it.

They also explained in an easy-to-understand way why my eyes had been feeling tired lately and how to take care of them, which was very helpful. While I was waiting, I was impressed to see the other patients receiving care in such a comfortable atmosphere. What I especially like about this place is that everyone is always kind, and I can get a consultation without feeling pressured. When my eyes are uncomfortable, I tend to get unnecessarily sensitive, but after receiving treatment, I feel like my mind is lighter too. I plan to keep coming here whenever I need to have my eye health checked. It’s an eye clinic I can trust and feel comfortable visiting.

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.
