    Winter! Lasik and Lasek Event

    I have been wearing soft contact lenses since the 7th grade, and I was afraid of the surgery, but I decided to go for LASIK this time. The Brand Eye Hospital is clean, and the nurses were very supportive during the surgery, which helped me muster the courage to focus on the procedure despite my fear. I visited the hospital about three times after the surgery, and now six months in, my vision is excellent. There is a slight dryness, but overall I am extremely satisfied.

    Fall LASIK/LASEK Event

    I think because it was LASIK, I didn't feel much pain at all. I took a short walk in the evening, and from the next day, I had no foreign body sensation at all, which was amazing. I wonder why I waited so long to have the surgery... I highly recommend that anyone who is considering it get the surgery as soon as possible, as I am very satisfied!

    Winter! Lasik and Lasek Event

    The price was not significantly different from what was stated, and the hospital was clean with everyone being friendly, which was nice. It's been a week since my LASIK procedure, and my vision is still somewhat recovering, but the dryness I was concerned about is present to some extent, though they said it should improve after about six months. The glare is not much different from before the procedure. Overall, I am satisfied.

    Winter! Lasik and Lasek Event

    I was worried that the pain from LASEK would be severe, but on the first day there was some eye discomfort and tearing; however, from the second or third day, as long as I stayed in the dark, it wasn't a significant problem at all!! Moreover, despite the large number of people, the examination was conducted quickly without any major delays, and the consultation was very friendly, so I highly recommend it!!

    Winter! Lasik and Lasek Event

    The staff was very helpful during the appointment, making it easy to find the clinic. The clean and neat interior, along with the thorough explanations of many tests, increased my trust. If I hadn't felt comfortable, I wouldn't have proceeded, but I felt confident enough to complete the one-day surgery. Thank you for introducing me to Cashdoc.

    My older son had LASIK and my younger son had LASEK, and they both loved it, so I'm really thankful.

    I think this place is right for me because they didn't charge for the consultation and sent me away saying my cornea was too thin for LASIK.

    I went there for conjunctivitis last week, but was shocked to hear they don't do general check-ups. They say they're specialists in cataract, LASIK, and LASEK.

    I went to find out about LASIK and LASEK surgery, and as rumored, there were a lot of patients waiting! Since I was just there to gather information, I had a simple check-up and listened to the explanations.

    Since my test results weren't good, I couldn't have the LASIK surgery, but the staff was really friendly, and the facilities were nice. If I decide to go for lenses insertion, I would choose to do it here.

    I trust them because they are thorough in their examinations and procedures. Since I have a lot of cornea remaining, they said that LASEK is more suitable for my eyes instead of LASIK, so I proceeded with LASEK. There were no additional costs for the items specified in the event, but options like corneal strengthening surgery added about 40 more (it's optional, but I highly recommend the booster eye drops). After the surgery, it wasn't as painful as I expected, so I went home alone. I experienced pain from three hours after the surgery until the next evening, during which I cried continuously, but currently, on the third day, I feel no pain at all. They mentioned that it may take some time for my vision to stabilize, so I am keeping an eye on it, and everything seems to be going well.

    Is it possible to wear glasses even after LASIK surgery because my cornea is thin?

    They are always so nice to me every time I go. They help me with my conjunctivitis every time I visit. I'm thinking of getting an exam and maybe having LASIK or LASEK done here later on.

  • Should I undergo LASIK or LASEK, and how much will it cost?

    Hello. We apologize for the delay in our response. First, LASIK and LASEK are different surgical methods. LASIK is a procedure suitable for patients with a thick cornea and has a faster recovery, whereas LASEK can generally be performed for most patients. A decision should be made based on the results of your examination. The cost for LASEK is 690,000 KRW, and for LASIK, it is 1,290,000 KRW. Thank you.
