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.

The reviews for the New World branch in front of the terminal aren't bad, but this place doesn't seem to have a good reputation. It's nice that it's not crowded, and the doctor was fairly friendly. However, parking is tough, and the affiliated parking lot is also difficult to park in. I took my mother for a government-supported cataract surgery, but they unnecessarily recommended a more advanced procedure. My mother is an elderly woman who just needs to manage her daily life; she's not a working person, but they suggested inserting advanced lenses to improve her vision, which has a cost difference of almost 600,000 won for just one eye. I think I made the right choice going with the basic option for both eyes. It felt bitter, as it seemed like the hospital was trying to profit from it.

I had been having trouble with my vision and tried using pinhole glasses, but that didn't help, so I decided to visit. I'm grateful for the doctor's careful and kind examination, as well as their explanation that these issues often come with age.

Dr. Yoon provides very precise care. He quickly diagnosed my retinal detachment and performed emergency surgery, so I didn't lose my vision. I get dizzy just thinking about that time. Thank you, Doctor.

I regularly visit for glaucoma and it has been very helpful for maintaining my eye health with check-ups every six months and pressure tests every month. I recommended it to people around me, showing them how they almost missed out on treatment for conditions that required attention, highlighting the importance of ophthalmic care. Recently, I had severe redness in my eyes and was advised to visit again, but I haven't gone yet. My daughter, who has vision problems, is also getting regular check-ups at S-An Eye Clinic. It’s a bit more convenient to visit on weekdays than weekends, and even when there are a lot of patients, the nurses are always patient and kind, which is why many families with children choose this clinic. The building has a wedding hall, so it can get crowded on weekends, but parking for medical visits is generally manageable.

The Smile LASIK procedure involves only slight discomfort. The procedure takes approximately 20-30 minutes. If you make a reservation, you can receive treatment immediately without waiting and have the procedure done on the same day. Thanks to the friendly nurses and doctors, I completed the procedure without any issues, and now I enjoy vibrant days with 1.2 vision, free from glasses.

It's a hospital that our family frequently visits because it's close by. There is a parking lot, but it can get crowded, especially if you have to go down to the basement. My child's eye had some inflammation, and after trying medication without success, we decided to have it properly removed. The nurse explained everything well during the post-treatment care, and the staff at the front desk were friendly too. We regularly take the kids for eye exams, and they handle it systematically without any hassle. The hospital is spacious and clean. Since my kids have poor eyesight and wear glasses, I think it's great that we can regularly get their vision checked here.

I underwent SMILE surgery at Bright Eye Clinic. Before the surgery, my vision was about -6 diopters, and it was very inconvenient to go about my daily life without glasses. From the preliminary consultation, the medical staff carefully checked my situation and kindly explained the surgical process and recovery, which put my mind at ease. On the day of the surgery, I was nervous, but thanks to the attentive care of the medical staff, the procedure went smoothly and there was hardly any pain. During the recovery period after surgery, the hospital continuously checked my progress, making me feel secure. Now, a year after the surgery, my vision is about -0.7 to 0.8, which is nearly normal, and life has become much more comfortable without glasses or contact lenses. My vision has improved, allowing me to feel freer and more confident when exercising, engaging in outdoor activities, or driving. I got the feeling that Bright Eye Clinic is a reliable hospital with the latest equipment and professional medical staff. I can confidently recommend this place to anyone considering vision correction surgery. From my experience, I feel that not only my vision has improved but the overall quality of my life has also increased.

Recently, I was worried because my daughter received a notice of decreased vision during the school eye exam. She usually sees well, but she mentioned that the writing on the blackboard appears blurry sometimes, so I wanted to check this accurately. After registration, I had her go through a basic vision test and an automated refraction test, and I was impressed by how systematic and thorough the examination process was. In the examination room, Director Lee Chan-hee explained the results to me, detailing my child's eye condition. They mentioned that during the growth phase, myopia could be starting and stressed the importance of managing eye usage habits together rather than just fitting glasses. Then, they conducted a cycloplegic refraction test for accurate vision measurement, provided consultation on corrective glasses suited for my child, and also shared lifestyle habits that could reduce eye fatigue. During the test, there was a slight stinging sensation when the dilation drops were applied, but my child didn’t seem to struggle too much, and afterward, we received a prescription for glasses that fit her eye condition. What impressed me the most was that they explained how to manage her eye condition in the long term. Discussing smartphone usage time, reading distance, and the importance of outdoor activities provided a lot of help from a parent's perspective.

During the eye exam, I mentioned to the doctor that my eyes have been itchy and that I've been using some eye drops. He said he doesn't recommend those and prescribed allergy-specific eye drops instead. Thanks to that, my eyes are no longer itchy. I highly recommend this ophthalmology clinic!

This is the clinic my child has been going to since elementary school and is still going to now that they’re in middle school. When a school health screening in third grade showed that their eyesight had gotten worse, we visited an eye clinic for the first time, and they told us my child needed treatment for nearsightedness. For the past few years, we’ve been putting in a drop of a medication called MyoGuard every day and then using artificial tears to wash it out after about a minute. It’s a simple method, and my child’s vision hasn’t gotten significantly worse while continuing to live normally. We chose MyoGuard and have been treating my child with it because I heard that night lenses require a lot of attention from the mother and are also expensive. I’m satisfied with the treatment. We’ll have to keep using the medication until my child turns 15, but seeing that their eyesight isn’t getting worse is reassuring.

LASIK and LASEK Special Offer Benefits · Clear Seoul Eye Clinic · 2025-06-17I 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.
