I had SMILE LASIK yesterday for KRW 2,500,000. It was slightly blurry only on the first day, and today I can see well as if I'm wearing contact lenses.There are almost no side effects, and the [Clinician name redacted] doctors and [Clinician name redacted] nurses are incredibly kind and thorough with the examination. I'm satisfied.

I had SMILE LASIK at Gangnam [Clinic name redacted] Eye Clinic. When I first went, they gave me kind consultations, and the SMILE LASIK surgery was also finished quickly. After the procedure, my eyes stung for about 3 hours, but after I took a nap, when I woke up, the pain was gone. Perhaps because I have severe dry eyes, my eyes were dry for about 2 weeks, but after that, I don't feel it much anymore. At first, I couldn't adapt well to the glare, but gradually I got used to it. And here, including a referral discount, same-day surgery discount (reservation discount), and review discount, there is a KRW 500,000 discount. They perform surgeries well, and I recommend Gangnam [Clinic name redacted] Eye Clinic for its good discounts.

I thought a [Clinic name redacted] hospital would be somewhat rigid, but I liked that the response was friendly and calm. I was able to have a comfortable consultation! I wanted to have SMILE LASIK, but they said that SMILE LASIK isn't something you can just choose; it depends on your eyes, and you need to have an examination first. Fortunately, my eyes were suitable for SMILE LASIK, which was great.I'm also very satisfied that the examination fee is free!Some places charge KRW 50,000... Best!👍

I visited for a follow-up after SMILE LASIK surgery in Seoul.Honestly, compared to [Clinic name redacted] Hospital,the consultation fee was much more expensive.I don't know if non-reimbursable treatments are more expensive compared to [Clinic name redacted] Hospital, or if they just charge more in general. I received non-reimbursable treatment, and the comparison to other hospitals for expensive treatment is based on receiving the same treatment. Please use this as a reference only ㅠ

I decided on this place because it was somewhere I could get surgery quickly during the holidays + it offered a university affiliation discount. It's been about 9 months since the surgery, and I came for a check-up. My quality of life has changed since SMILE LASIK. There are a lot of patients, [Clinician name redacted] The doctor and staff are all kind and provide good care. I think there's a reason why so many people get surgery here. I highly recommend it!!

There must be a reason why so many people use this place. I had SMILE LASIK on Saturday morning, and everyone was generally kind, from registration to examination and consultation. I was actually anxious about the surgery, but fortunately, I didn't feel more anxious because they told me things like it's normal for it to be blurry and it's normal not to see during the surgery. I had the surgery with peace of mind. They said my eyes might sting, so I was worried about pain, but I was surprised at how little pain there was.. haha After taking a nap after the surgery, I thought it was about 5% blurry, but when I woke up on Sunday morning, it was 99% clear, and now it's Sunday afternoon and it's 100% clear. I feel great haha With the morning surgery discount, it didn't even cost 250 in total. It's the best ㅜ

I went there through a friend's recommendation and had SMILE LASIK. I consulted at other places too, but they didn't recommend unnecessary additional surgeries, and the price seemed reasonable, so I had the surgery here! The surgery finished quickly, and my eyes were very sore for about 3 hours after the surgery, After that, it gradually got better, so I went about my daily life from the day of the surgery. I can already see things far away well [Clinician name redacted] All the nurses and doctors were kind, and thanks to them, I can see clearly now... Thank you!

After contemplating vision correction surgery for the past few years, I decided to have the surgery this year. Even after searching through all the community sites, I couldn't find a suitable place, but through the Modoodoc app, I found that [Clinic name redacted] Clinic stood out as it had the most reviews and good ratings, and since they were also offering a surgery discount, I had a consultation and decided to have the surgery there! I had SMILE Pro surgery due to high myopia and astigmatism, and the results were very satisfying. I regret not having the surgery sooner.. And I am grateful that both the [Clinician name redacted] and [Clinician name redacted] doctors conducted everything from examination to surgery kindly and accurately, so the surgery was successful without any problems.

I had SMILE LASIK surgery here this time. I was so scared of lenses that I had never even tried them on, so I was worried that blinking my eyes would prevent the surgery from going well. [Clinician name redacted] The doctor kindly helped me. During the surgery, the right eye didn't hurt at all, but the left eye kept stinging. There were no major problems after the surgery, and I felt my vision improve on the same day. I got a student discount and even had corneal protection surgery for KRW 2,400,000, and I think the price was good. I recommend it.

I came all the way from Singapore to Seoul for vision correction. The doctor recommended SMILE Pro, so I had a consultation and surgery on the same day. I stayed at the hospital for about 3 hours, and the surgery took about 15 minutes. It was a little uncomfortable when they put water in my eyes, but it was bearable, and although my vision was blurry after the surgery, I had no trouble walking straight. The counselor explained in detail how to use the eye drops, and you can purchase them at the pharmacy on the 1st floor. The surgery cost about KRW 3,900,000. The service was satisfactory, and I was able to communicate via WhatsApp. The lifetime warranty was also impressive. The interpreter, Kimi, fluently translated between Korean and English and kindly guided me through the entire process of surgery and vision testing.

I'm happy that I got a better surgery for not much price difference!It's been a week, and I'm really satisfied! The world looks bright 🥹 The director was so kind, and there was a lot of good equipment, so the examination was very thorough, taking about 30 to 40 minutes..! I recommend it 🤩

Two months ago, I had SMILE LASIK near my workplace, and I was curious about the condition of my eyes, which hadn't fully recovered from dry eyes and vision, so I went to the [Clinic name redacted] ophthalmology clinic near my house, and I was so grateful.I was anxious because I didn't get a detailed explanation at the [Clinic name redacted] ophthalmology clinic, but the director performed various tests and showed me the results directly, explaining everything in detail, which greatly alleviated my anxiety.They are skilled and understand the patient's feelings well.The examination and consultation fees were all covered by insurance, so they were affordable. They even prescribed artificial tears generously. The nurse was also kind, and I'm so relieved that there's a [Clinic name redacted] eye clinic like this near my home.

I'm someone who finally decided to have eye surgery and even took a day off work for it. After searching high and low for a good place, I found Director [Clinician name redacted] and had the surgery. I had SMILE LASIK through a colleague's recommendation and I'm satisfied, and I think I got a pretty good discount too. The examination and surgery took about half a day, so keep that in mind when booking. You need to rest after the surgery~ Anyway, I'm satisfied ^^*

I had SMILE LASIK on the same day. They gave a KRW 300,000 discount for same-day surgery, so I could get it for KRW 2,300,000. I also got corneal strengthening for KRW 300,000 and, because my dry eye was severe, KRW 300,000,I got the full package. So, it was originally a total of 300, but I received a KRW 100,000 review event discount, so it came out to 290. KRW 100,000 was paid separately and can be refunded in about a month. My eyes are really comfortable, and on the day of the surgery, it stings for about 4 hours, you definitely need to bring someone to take you home after the surgery. Everyone was kind and I was very satisfied.

1. Even after SMILE LASIK and corneal strengthening, my vision did not significantly improve. I was told to wait for 1 year. (Left eye 0.5, right eye 0.8) 2. After 2 years, my left eye has myopia regression, and my right eye's vision has also decreased and I have astigmatism.I am considering reoperation ㅠ It's a case-by-case situation, but to have to pay a lot of money for reoperation... They say I have to pay for the corneal strengthening procedure. 3. Even though they consulted me 2 years ago saying that 1.0 vision was possible and astigmatism would be corrected, I haven't received any explanation about the myopia regression and astigmatism that occurred.They only said it was due to age ㅠ (I had the surgery in my mid-30s) They created an atmosphere to recommend reoperation. 4. Although it has been upgraded to [Clinic name redacted] Hospital, the system is not different from before, but the price has become much more expensive ㅠ The basic examination fee alone is 30900 won. 5. As someone who has already had the surgery, I do not recommend it to acquaintances.

Because my son's university was affiliated, we were told there would be a discount, so today he had an examination and even had the surgery. The SMILE Pro machine is the latest model, so the surgery ended quickly, and my son is satisfied. Because his eyesight was so bad, he struggled wearing glasses, so he says he likes it now.

I had SMILE LASIK~ They were kind in their response. For the surgery, I didn't bother with the options for corneal strengthening, night glare removal, or PRP~The price for each option is too expensive..I hope I recover well from the surgery and have no after-effects.

I had SMILE LASIK with Chief Director 3[Clinician name redacted]. I've been getting regular health check-ups, and I had almost booked with Chief Director 1[Clinician name redacted]. But today, Chief Director [Clinician name redacted] was busy, so I saw a different female director. She just said I was healthy and that was it. When I saw the Chief Director, he explained everything so that I could understand each and every thing, but this time, not only was it not great that Director [Clinician name redacted] was changed beforehand, but the consultation result was also just one word.. The cost of regular check-ups is expensive, so this needs to be improved. I'm paying nearly KRW 50,000 for this, and it feels too insincere. Of course, the staff on the 4th floor were very kind, so my complaints were fewer. However, even if surgery is the priority, I think a patient who made an appointment in advance should be given priority. Please ensure this doesn't happen again.

It's my 2nd day after eye surgery. I had SMILE LASIK and it didn't hurt at all, it's a new world. I really agonized over whether I should go all the way to Gangnam, but the reviews were good and I thought it was best to have it close by since I'd have to keep going for check-ups, so I consulted them. The price was reasonable compared to other places, and they said they'd cover the examination fee if I had the surgery on the same day, so I just went for it. I'm really satisfied. The examination was thorough, and most importantly, the surgery time was incredibly fast. They usually say it feels like it takes a long time, but for me, it was already...? That's how it felt. After the surgery, even though my vision was blurry because I usually don't wear glasses even though my eyes are bad, I could see well enough to walk around immediately. Since it was SMILE LASIK, there was no pain and recovery was fast. I recommend it to those who are wondering if they can have it done in their neighborhood like me.

My daily life was so uncomfortable due to my uneven eyes, dry eyes, astigmatism + myopia, so while I was off work, I looked into it and found out about SMILE LASIK Pro. I hesitated because of the cost, but since it offers more precise astigmatism correction, fewer side effects, faster recovery, is safer, and has a shorter procedure time, I, being a super sensitive and timid person.. haha, booked a same-day consultation. If I went with Pro, it included either corneal strengthening or dry eye treatment, so I chose dry eye treatment and had SMILE LASIK Pro surgery! Immediately after the surgery, I could see everything, and other than the foreign body sensation from the protective lens, there was no stinging or pain, which was just amazing. The next day, after removing the protective lens, my vision in both eyes returned to 1.0, and they said my astigmatism and myopia would gradually improve! I'm satisfied, haha.

I applied for SMILE LASIK at [Clinic name redacted] through an Instagram event price, and after the examination, I had the surgery with Sirius + corneal strengthening and designated the chief director.Since there were many patients, the first visit took about 4 hours for consultation, examination, and waiting, but the examination was very thorough, which gave me confidence.Immediately after the surgery, for about 4 hours, my vision was blurry and there was pain, but after that, it gradually started to become clearer. Now, two days after the surgery, it is so comfortable and I can see so well that it's still amazing to me.Since it is eye surgery, the cost wasn't small, but I think it was a thoroughly satisfying and worthwhile choice!! I think getting it done by the head director was also a good choice. Thank you🥰 😆

I had SMILE LASIK through a school partnership and was very satisfied. I was able to get a comprehensive eye exam for free before the surgery, which allowed me to check my eye condition in detail, and the thorough examination put me at ease. I was also able to get corneal strengthening at an affordable price thanks to the school partnership discount. The surgery finished quickly, and the recovery was faster than I expected, so I had no major discomfort in my daily life starting the next day. Overall, I am satisfied with the cost and the friendly medical staff, so I would recommend this place to others.

I visited on the recommendation of family and acquaintances and had basic Smile LASIK surgery. If you write a review, they cancel KRW 100,000 from your card. This content is an honest review written after receiving the cancellation and editing it. Since eye surgery is important, I will write honestly, thinking that my precious neighbors or acquaintances might go through it. I was treated by Dr. [Clinician name redacted], and currently on the 3rd day after surgery, the results are good. If this review stays as is, it means there is no change in my satisfaction. The examinations are very systematic and they are kind. I was only going to do an examination, but if you pay on the same day, they induce you with a discount. During the consultation after the examination and before payment, they explained several options, and I felt they were encouraging me to choose the more expensive options.Of course, paying more is good, but it didn't feel like they were logically recommending what was best optimized for my eyes. Do a lot of research beforehand.

Overall, I'm really satisfied after getting SMILE LASIK! I was especially worried because I have astigmatism, but it seems to have been corrected well, and I was happy that daily life became so much more convenient after the surgery. The main side effect I felt was dry eyes, but other than that, I'm doing well without any particular discomfort. The hospital itself felt clean and systematically run. The system from examination to surgery and aftercare was well-established, so I could proceed comfortably without much confusion. However, it was a bit disappointing that there were separate payment amounts for additional procedures beyond the surgery cost. Nevertheless, I'm satisfied with the overall surgical [Clinic name redacted] hospital system!
