My vision was -5.0 and my astigmatism was so severe that I couldn’t wear regular circle lenses, only daily disposable lenses. But I couldn’t keep wearing contacts, and glasses were uncomfortable too, so I went to Metro Eye Clinic in Daegu and got SMILE. Now my vision seems to be around 1.0/1.2. I guess dry eye can’t be helped.. Whenever my eyes feel really dry, I go to the ophthalmology clinic, get prescribed artificial tears, and use them. I remember the surgery time being really short, and there wasn’t much discomfort afterward either. I came home, slept, woke up, and I could see so well, so I’m very satisfied!

Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewJan 13 Review of Failed SMILE LASIK
When I look at things far away, the letters look doubled and overlapped, so to see properly I have to squint. I wondered if it was because my eyes were dry, but it’s the same even when I look shortly after putting in artificial tears. At a
