It’s been exactly 2 years since I had lens implantation surgery! My corneal thickness was sufficient, but I had high myopia and high astigmatism, so if they shaved off that much cornea, the side effects would be significant and there was a high possibility my vision would decline again. So the only option was lens implantation surgery. The downside is, of course, the price.. It cost 5 million won. The upside is that it doesn’t touch the cornea, so recovery is very fast? And they said the chance of vision declining again after surgery is much lower than with LASIK or LASEK. But people who have a habit of rubbing their eyes or who play ball sports need to be careful. Since there is a lens inside the eye, if you get badly injured or hit, the lens can rotate or break inside, they said. The surgery ends faster than expected, and afterward your eyes feel stiff and heavy. When I was looking into the surgery, since the area is the eyes and, on top of that, it’s related to vision, I wondered if I should do it when I was a bit older, but every time I wore glasses for high myopia and saw how I looked, I went ahead right away.. haha. The maintenance period varies completely from person to person, so after lens implantation surgery, it’s good to go for a regular checkup once a year! You need to regularly check how many corneal endothelial cells you have and whether they’ve decreased, and the method is simple, so it’s over quickly. As you age, endothelial cells decrease, and they said that if endothelial cells decrease a lot after lens implantation surgery, then the lens has to be removed at that time. So checkups are the most important!!
