Seoul On Eye Clinic – Near Bulgwang Station, Eunpyeong | SMILE LASIK, Cataract Surgery & LASEKSeoul On Eye Clinic

This is a 3rd-generation vision correction surgery that combines the benefits of LASIK (less pain, fast recovery) and LASEK (safer as it creates no flap). Recovery is possible on the same day (visual recovery within 3-4 hours), and you can return to daily activities the very next day. Unlike traditional LASIK and LASEK, which use thermal energy from excimer lasers that may cause corneal haze, SMILE LASIK uses a femtosecond laser without heat, significantly reducing the risk of corneal haze. The period for using steroid eye drops is also much shorter (within 1 month for SMILE LASIK, compared to 3 months for traditional methods).
