A nurse friend who is a scaredy-cat (a nurse at a different hospital, not this one) strongly recommended it, so I trusted the clinic she recommended and had surgery there. I am really satisfied. The doctor was very calm and kind, and all the staff were kind too, which made it even better. Online, people say LASEK is the safest, so I considered it too, but I remembered another friend who had LASEK being in severe pain for a while after surgery, so I chose SMILE LASIK. There was no pain at all during the procedure or afterward, and I could see well from the moment I left the clinic. I recommend SMILE LASIK if you are easily scared!

My vision was not originally that poor: 0.7–0.8 and 0.4 (with severe astigmatism). Because of the severe astigmatism, I could not clearly see the faces of people at the traffic light across the street. Even when I tried prescription…
Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewSep 8 LASEK
Definitely get LASEK... I had LASEK instead of LASIK because my corneas were thin, and it really, really hurts, you know? T_T But if you just endure for about three days, your world changes... I do have some dryness, though. It may be…
