It's been about 15 years since I had LASIK surgery, and I wanted to check on the current condition of my eyes, so I went to Eye Smile Eye Clinic for a regular check-up. After such a long time, I was worried that my vision might have worsened or that there could be some issues with my eye health, but they conducted thorough examinations that put my mind at ease. The clinic is large, and the testing system felt very organized. Through various tests, I was able to get a detailed look at my current vision and cornea status. After the tests, they explained the results in an easy-to-understand way and gave me guidance on what to be careful about when it comes to eye care. When I had questions about certain aspects, they answered sincerely, which made me feel reassured. Especially since my visit was primarily to check on the long-term results of my LASIK surgery, I appreciated that they didn't suggest unnecessary tests or create a pressured atmosphere. Instead, they objectively explained my current status, which I found very positive. Overall, the experience felt highly professional, and the staff was kind and accommodating, making it easy for me to receive my check-up.

I visited this clinic on the recommendation of an acquaintance. I went there with high expectations because I heard they take good care of kids, and I was surprised by the size of the place. The thorough management also shortened the time spent on consultations. They really put a lot of effort into my child's eye exam, more so than other eye clinics we've been to, which gives me confidence in their care. There's a parking lot, and it's close to the subway station, so accessibility is great.

I was easily fatigued and came in, but the examination process was clean and precise. They explained the changes in vision and dryness with visual aids, making it easy to understand. The advice on how to use lenses and protect my eyes was really helpful. I felt trust because they only guided me on what was necessary without over-treatment. After the exam, my eyes felt much more comfortable.

I randomly came across Seoul Eye Clinic and visited for an exam six months ago. Recently, one of my eyes started to get blurry all of a sudden. After stopping by an optical shop for a check-up, I found out that my vision had dropped significantly. They advised me to go to a hospital for a thorough examination to find the cause. I went to the hospital, underwent a detailed examination, and had cataract surgery. The doctor provided careful treatment and performed the surgery really well. I was also touched by the kindness of the nurses. They explained the follow-up care in detail, and I'm really grateful. This is an eye clinic I would highly recommend.

After wearing glasses and contact lenses for over 20 years, I decided to undergo vision correction surgery and came to this eye clinic. Since this is a sensitive area to deal with, I was careful in choosing the hospital, but after seeing their thorough pre-examination system, I was able to make my decision on the spot. The process involved measuring my vision, checking cornea thickness, assessing the state of my retina, and evaluating the degree of dry eyes with dozens of precise tests to determine the safest surgical method for my eyes; it was very scientific. The director explained the expected vision post-surgery and potential side effects such as light glare based on the test results, which made me trust them even more. On the day of the surgery, the nurses came up to me, held my hand, and reassured me, which was an unforgettable act of kindness. The surgery was completed very quickly and accurately, and seeing the advanced equipment in the operating room gave me peace of mind. The next morning, when I opened my eyes, the patterns on the ceiling were clear, and the view outside the window was like a high-definition miracle, marking a turning point in my life. During the post-operative care process, they conducted regular check-ups every week to closely monitor my vision recovery and carefully guided me on how to use artificial tears and sun protection measures, which I found very satisfying. Now, thanks to the freedom that comes from living without glasses, every moment is enjoyable and happy. I sincerely bow my head in gratitude to the medical staff here who treat their patients' precious eyes like their own family's.

I started going here because many people recommended it. The doctor is friendly and thorough. I go for regular check-ups every six months, but when I went last time, the doctor said my child's vision had dropped significantly and asked us to come back for a follow-up in three months. Usually, it seems like the check-ups are every six months. The nurses were also great with checking my child's eyesight and were very kind. There were plenty of nurses, so even though there were many patients, the waiting time wasn't too long. It seems like it's an older hospital, so there were a lot of elderly patients too. I couldn't park in the building's basement, so I parked across the street in the unmanned parking lot. There's a pharmacy on the first floor, and the bus stop is right in front of the building. I noticed that they must have remodeled the interior recently because the hospital looked even cleaner.

I recently started experiencing frequent eye fatigue and significant light glare at night, so I got a check-up. After registering, they first conducted an automatic refraction test and a visual acuity retest, and compared my previous glasses prescription with my current vision, which they explained clearly. Then, during the slit lamp examination, they checked the condition of my cornea and lens and also looked for any microscopic injuries on the surface of my eye. When I mentioned that I tend to wear contact lenses for long periods, they provided specific advice on oxygen permeability and replacement frequency, which was helpful. They explained the causes of eye fatigue alongside simply increasing the prescription, which gave me confidence in their assessment. They did not push for unnecessary expensive tests or procedures and instead guided me to start with adjusting my lifestyle habits. However, since it was the evening, there was a bit of a wait for the tests, and the waiting area was somewhat crowded.

I went in for my regular checkup, and the eye drops I had been prescribed and using were also running out. There were a lot of patients waiting today, so I had to wait before being seen. I always feel reassured because they’re kind and very thorough. Compared to last time, my overall eye condition had gotten worse, so I was nervous about having to undergo all kinds of tests. Thankfully, it wasn’t serious enough to require surgery, and they said the signs of decreased vision and cataracts caused by aging had only gotten a little worse, so I felt somewhat relieved. My eyes aren’t in the best condition because of several combined symptoms, but I’m grateful that my vision hasn’t declined rapidly because I’ve been receiving regular care and managing them consistently. I’ve been going to Ganseok Balgeun for almost twenty years, and I like that the facilities are clean and, above all, that the director and nurses are so kind.

I’ve been struggling with blurred vision, probably due to presbyopia, and while looking for a good clinic, I was referred to Iljeom Optical Clinic. After undergoing vision tests and a regular check-up, they confirmed that I do indeed have presbyopia. Time really doesn't spare anyone, and I never expected to be experiencing this myself. However, thanks to the preventive measures and great glasses recommended by Iljeom Optical Clinic, I’m now wearing multifocal lenses and my vision has improved significantly.

They asked detailed questions about my vision changes and discomfort, and the examination was thorough.

*I went for an eye check-up because of my vision correction and discovered a retinal issue, so I received laser treatment. The optometrist who did the retinal exam during the check-up was really friendly. My eyes weren't cooperating during the exam, and they could have gotten frustrated, but they remained calm and took multiple photos again when they saw issues with the retina. I really appreciated that.

I visited for dry eye symptoms, and after a detailed medical history, I underwent vision tests, intraocular pressure tests, slit-lamp microscopy, tear break-up time tests, and corneal staining tests. The results showed reduced tear secretion and dry eye surface, so they prescribed artificial tears and educated me on improving blinking habits, taking breaks during prolonged screen use, applying warm compresses, and eyelid hygiene. I was advised to return for symptom monitoring.

I have bad eyesight. They say my nearsightedness isn't too severe, but my astigmatism is pretty bad. So honestly, I don't think my vision even corrects to 20/20 with glasses or contacts. That's why I decided to get LASIK and went for an examination. The waiting room at Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic was really spacious. It's actually the largest ophthalmology clinic I've visited. After the machine tests, a staff member guided me to a room for the vision test. They were very kind while conducting the vision test. After finishing a few checks, they put dilating drops in my eyes. I learned that the dilating drops help widen the pupils. Even after putting in the drops, they continued with more tests. Once all the tests were done, I waited in front of the consultation room. When it's my turn, I go in to hear the doctor's friendly explanations. After my consultation with the doctor who will perform my surgery, I talked with another staff member to schedule the surgery date. They had someone else in charge of that. After the tests, my eyes felt really bright and irritated, but fortunately, the fluorescent lights were a bit easier on my eyes. The sunlight was honestly unbearable. It’s essential to wear sunglasses and a hat when going for the tests. I didn’t take them and struggled quite a bit.

While contemplating vision correction methods, I received a consultation for dream lenses at Lee's Kim Sang-sik Eye Clinic. At first, the idea of wearing lenses at night felt a bit strange, but they explained the principles and care methods step by step, making it easy to understand. It wasn't just about stating how many diopters my vision was but also carefully checking my corneal condition and the suitability for wearing lenses, which I found impressive. The fitting practice was also done gradually and without rush, which eased the pressure. They provided specific guidance on care methods and precautions, which helped me manage it at home. Overall, the clinic consults without exaggeration and with realistic standards, so I felt that even those considering dream lenses for the first time could comfortably seek advice.

I visited for floaters, but it's been almost 9 months and I'm not getting better. Instead, they say it's because of an injury to my eye, and I'm losing trust, so I'm considering going to another hospital. The person doing the vision test can't even handle one piece of equipment properly and is just talking nonsense about how my regular glasses, which are multifocal, don't show the right prescription. It seems like there's no qualified optometrist there. During my sixth visit, I brought the same glasses I haven't changed, and the doctor asked why I'm wearing glasses with a prescription lower than my vision. It was just ridiculous. They didn't say anything during my previous visit, and if there was an issue with my glasses, they should check my chart. That person who was messing things up because they couldn't get the prescription right must have entered it wrong. Anyway, I need to move to another hospital.

I’ve been having trouble seeing things up close, so I went for an exam. They didn’t just check my eyesight; they also looked at the degree of presbyopia, my eye's ability to focus, and even my lifestyle, which felt very systematic. The examination process wasn’t rushed at all, and they explained everything step by step, making it easy to understand. I appreciated that they didn’t scare me with unnecessary comments and instead focused on my current condition and how to manage it moving forward. Instead of pushing for surgery right away, they talked to me about choosing glasses or contacts and managing my eye health in daily life, which made it feel less overwhelming. I think it's a great place to get checked out, especially if you're in the early stages of presbyopia.

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.
