I went back for another eye exam after the school vision test. Maybe because of the weather, my allergies were really bad, so after a bunch of tests, I got a prescription for allergy medication. My eyes weren't in the best shape because of the weather, so my vision seems to have degraded slightly, but the doctor said there's nothing to worry about. They suggested we hold off on getting glasses for now and check again later. They kindly asked me to come back in six months for another check-up. The issue is, these days the waiting time is just way too long. It takes over an hour for the appointment ~ Even when there are scheduled patients, they need to be a bit sensible and manage to fit in walk-ins in between. After waiting for an hour, it doesn’t feel great when people who arrive later keep getting called in before you. No one even mentioned that it takes longer because there are a lot of scheduled patients.

I suddenly started seeing objects as double, so I was worried and spent several days thinking about it before visiting an eye clinic. I chose Solbit Eye Clinic in downtown Gangneung because it was easy to get to, and went in for an examination. I had several tests, including a vision test and an eye pressure test. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with my eyes, so they accurately measured my vision and prescribed me glasses. The director examined me very thoroughly and carefully. He explained everything in detail, which put my mind at ease. At many hospitals, there are doctors who rush through the examination, but here I really appreciated how calmly they took their time with me and explained everything in a way that suited me. Solbit Eye Clinic is a place I would definitely recommend to others.

After wearing contact lenses frequently for several years, I was experiencing ongoing pain, dryness, and discomfort in my eyes, so I visited an ophthalmologist. The examination revealed that I had developed some scratches on my cornea, and I received treatment for it. While I was there, I also had my vision checked. The doctor explained my current eye condition in detail, which made it easy to understand, and he carefully shared important points to keep in mind when wearing contacts. The testing process was systematic and friendly, allowing me to feel comfortable during the appointment. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is experiencing eye discomfort or wants to check their vision regularly. I'm also considering returning here in the future if I have any eye issues or need to visit an ophthalmologist again.

I visited due to declining vision, and the testing process was systematic and accurate. They even checked my lens-wearing habits and gave detailed advice. The consultation was calm, so I was able to go through it without feeling tense. They guided me without any unnecessary treatments, which made me trust them. Since then, my eye fatigue has decreased, so it was a satisfying experience.

My child has hyperopia, so we go for regular eye exams and check-ups every six months. We've been coming here for about four years since we moved, and I really appreciate how much they care about my child's eyes. The nurses are quite friendly and the building is clean. During vacation periods, the waiting can be a bit longer, so I recommend making an appointment in advance. They explain things kindly during the eye exam so my child doesn’t get scared, and they're very patient. The waiting area is spacious, plus there's a Daiso on the lower floor, so it's nice to run out for a quick shopping trip. The clinic is conveniently located right in front of the Youngtong HomePlus, and there’s a pharmacy on the same floor, which is really convenient.

This is the first hospital that explained my eyes in such detail and systematically. They went beyond just a simple surgery explanation and addressed questions a patient might have. They calmly guided me on why this surgical method is the most suitable based on the structural characteristics of my eyes and my vision condition.

I took my daughter in for an eye exam, and her vision had gotten so much worse that we ended up getting her Ortho-K lenses. They had her try on several lenses to find the right fit for her eyes and then took the measurements. The doctor and nurses were so kind, so we’ve been coming here ever since our older child started. There are always a lot of patients, but it’s always worth the wait. We made an appointment to come back in a month.

I'm currently using dream lenses. It's been 6 months and my vision is getting a lot better. I need to keep wearing them to achieve 20/20 vision. I have a lazy eye, so I need to be careful not to wear them on my right eye. My doctor is Dr. Jeong Ji-yong in room 1. When you take out the dream lenses without using artificial tears, it can sting, so be careful. I haven't been to the hospital in a while, but it's still comfortable and nice here. If you're going to wear dream lenses, you should definitely do it. I used to use Atrochin eye drops, but they sting and even with a little light, they're blinding, so I think the dream lenses are better. Personally, this place is really, really great. Make sure to come at least once, even if you're not in Pyeongtaek, there are plenty of other locations.

I visited the eye clinic for an examination. From registration to treatment, everything was systematic and the wait time was short, so I was able to have a comfortable experience. The medical staff carefully checked my eye condition and explained everything I was curious about in a friendly manner, which made me feel reassured. We usually have our kids' vision checked every six months, and they always treat us with the same attentive approach. My child often rubs their eyes, and I was cautioned that this could lead to scratches, which is why it's important to be careful, as it can cause vision problems over time. They advised me to keep artificial tears in the refrigerator and use them cool to help with the itching. I was very satisfied with the friendly and thorough treatment.

Before deciding on vision correction, I set some criteria for choosing a clinic. First, the examination system; second, the surgical equipment; and third, the expertise of the medical staff. The examination system involved a thorough process that took almost two hours, repeating various measurements, which demonstrated their commitment to accuracy. The use of an AI analysis system to objectify the examination results was also impressive. During the consultation, they showed me my eye condition data on the screen and provided solid reasons for why Smile Pro was suitable for me. Their answers to my questions were clear, and there was no unnecessary pressure to proceed. I also think the fact that I can manage my vision and make outpatient appointments through an app after the surgery indicates a solid post-operative care system. In conclusion, all three criteria were met, and I’m satisfied with the surgery results.

Since I’m getting older, my vision has been deteriorating and my eyes have been tired. I was taking lutein, but my eyesight seemed to be getting worse and my eyes felt cloudy. I went to Readers Sungmo Eye Clinic near Bangbae Station and consulted with Dr. Ahn Yong-seon. There, I found out that my eye condition wasn't good, and I've been going for check-ups every three months. Every time I visit, the nurses are kind, provide great advice, and the doctor explains everything in detail. They also help schedule my appointments nicely. This was my third visit, and I’m scheduled to come back in five months. I feel that switching from my previous eye clinic to Readers Sungmo was a good decision. I plan to keep getting treatment. Thank you.

I went to Joen Eye Clinic for an open run at 9 AM~~ I checked in and made an appointment for the afternoon~~ They told me to come by 4 PM, so I got there around 2 PM~~ The consultation took about 40 minutes in total, including the waiting time!! Parking is convenient since you can park in the lot in front of the building or the church parking lot next door~~~ The church parking lot is spacious! I recommend parking here!! The staff who check you in are friendly~~~ Dr. Kim Seong-joo explains everything in detail and gives great advice, which I really appreciate!! My child has nearsightedness and is already on medication, but I hope their vision doesn’t get worse~~ It tends to get really crowded during vacation, but luckily today it was pretty relaxed for the consultation~ It seems like this eye clinic is quite well-known in Nam-gu, Gwangju~~~

The government contacted me to get a health check-up, so I went for the tests. I work on weekdays, so I made an appointment for the weekend. I woke up in the morning and couldn't drink any water or use the bathroom. After brushing my teeth, I got there around 9:10 am. Right after arriving, I started with a urine test, followed by vision tests, weight checks, and more vision tests. Since my liver isn't in good shape, I had to concentrate during the ultrasound, where they checked my pancreas, gallbladder, and other things. Maybe because it was the weekend, there were a lot of patients visiting, so I brought a book to read while I waited. Reading helped pass the time and made the wait less boring. During the blood test, they drew more blood than I expected, and when I asked, they said the government had added more this time. Overall, the tests went smoothly!

My sister is busy, so I took my nephew to the eye clinic since I had some free time. We were worried about his eyesight after starting elementary school, but I was really satisfied with this place. They have various specialized equipment and conduct a very thorough examination for elementary students with nearsightedness. They accurately assessed and explained my child's eye condition, which I appreciated. However, I found that Saturdays can be a bit crowded, making it personally difficult to receive treatment, so I recommend visiting during the weekdays if possible. If you make a reservation, you can significantly reduce the waiting time, so please be sure to book an appointment. I highly recommend this place to parents or guardians who are concerned about their child's vision!

The head doctor is an older gentleman. He is very kind. I visited for my child's regular check-up. There are always quite a few patients waiting, so I think it's best to choose your time wisely. The nurses are nice, but the doctor who does the vision tests can be a bit grumpy. It's great that there's an eye clinic nearby.

There are usually a lot of elderly patients, so I had to wait a long time. I found that if I go during lunch, I don't have to wait long for my appointment, which is great. To avoid overlapping with the diligent elderly, visiting a bit later seems like a good idea. The doctor was nice and friendly, but since I went for redness, I only received treatment for that. I wanted to get my vision tested too, but it seems I should have mentioned it separately. My vision has been declining, and with the pain and possible aging changes... Next time, I’ll make sure to have a thorough check-up. After my LASIK surgery, my eyes were fine for a while, but over time my vision has worsened, and I’m experiencing more dryness. Time waits for no one, unfortunately. I need to take care of my eyes so I can keep enjoying the world with them.

My kids and I have regular checkups every six months. The kids are at a stage where their vision changes a lot, and since I've passed my mid-40s, I experience some floaters and dryness, so I visit regularly. Depending on the season, during transitional periods, it's common to have conjunctivitis or mild inflammation due to allergies, but they quickly identify it and prescribe eye drops. They also carefully monitor the kids' vision changes, so that any adjustments to their prescriptions are subtle enough for them to naturally wear new glasses. This is my neighborhood clinic where I’ve been going for almost ten years, so I trust them and always wish for their continued success.

Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic is frequently praised for its overall clean and systematic treatment system, leading to high satisfaction rates. From the moment of booking, the staff provided kind guidance, and the hospital's interior was comfortable with state-of-the-art equipment, instilling a sense of safety.

Many patients reported a quick recovery post-surgery and a noticeable improvement in their vision, with feedback also highlighting the friendly consultations and repeated explanations fostering trust. Some visitors noted a slight wait time, but overall, the level of satisfaction with the treatment was considered good.

I visited for an eye examination and glaucoma test. Dr. Seo Hye-jin’s friendly consultation and thorough examination, along with the nurses' kindness, made it a comfortable experience. I was able to shake off some of my fear about eye exams, which was great. I would recommend this clinic to my friends. I plan to return for my regular check-ups and also to get my vision tested accurately when I need new glasses. Having my eyes examined here will ensure that I get a reliable pair of glasses, which will help relieve eye strain and guarantee correct vision correction, rather than just getting glasses made from a regular optical shop.

My child had poor vision test results at school, so we visited for a detailed examination. Both the doctor and the nurse were seasoned professionals, and they handled everything very skillfully. The school test showed 0.7, but fortunately, the detailed exam showed 1.0. There is a bit of astigmatism, so we’re not using glasses yet, but they suggested regular check-ups for management, which I felt confident about.

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.
