First of all, my vision was poor, with a lens prescription of -5.00 in both eyes, so I wore daily disposable lenses every day, and corneal inflammation or damage happened often too, so I started thinking I couldn’t keep wearing lenses every single day anymore. I did it at the hospital where my friend had it done 5 years ago I had the exam + surgery on the day of my reservation I booked the earliest time slot at 8:30 a.m., and they said it would take about 3 hours and 30 minutes, but maybe because it was the Lunar New Year holiday, when I arrived at the hospital at 8:30, it was already packed with people, so even in that large hospital there was almost no space to sit and wait, and the waiting time kept getting longer. Even just for the exam, the waiting was very long and all that, but the staff were generally kind, so it was okay There is a person who consults with you based on the test results, and there they proceed with consultation + payment. There is a referral discount of about 500,000 won, so find out the birth date and name or phone number of the person who had the surgery! As for the package, honestly I wanted to choose the cheapest set among SMILE LASIK options, but they said because my eyes were very bad, they would have to remove a lot with the laser, and then the dry eye would be extremely severe, so they kept telling me to choose the middle option. It felt a bit forced, but they said it was to prevent side effects because they had to remove a lot, so I just went with that I chose a package that included autologous serum eye drops + punctal plug procedure + warm compress My corneas are thick, so I can have LASEK later, and they said if my vision drops, they’ll do LASEK for free later too. I should avoid looking at my phone as much as possible in dark places and keep it far away, I guess I set Screen Distance on my iPhone haha.. After the surgery ended and I came out, it was 1 p.m.; after waiting and doing things and getting home, it was around 3 p.m. Other people said SMILE LASIK didn’t hurt at all, but for me, I really kept tearing for 5 hours and it hurt so much The hospital told me not to take a nap and to put in artificial tears diligently once every 20 minutes, so I followed that as much as possible. ㅡCurrent side effects: dry eye / glareㅡ Before surgery, when I met the doctor at the hospital, I asked about dry eye and glare, and they said glare inevitably gets worse the more they have to remove, and that I would probably have it. The glare was extremely severe at first. Traffic lights and every light in the world were all too dazzling, and now it’s not to the point of bothering me, just that it’s slightly there? When I go to places with very strong and bright lighting, or on days with strong sunlight, my eyes hurt Currently, dry eye is on the severe side when I go to barbecue restaurants or places with grills, and on dry days it’s hard to open my eyes in the morning. I divided artificial tears into pockets and bags here and there so I can put them in at any time In terms of seeing clearly as soon as I wake up in the morning and not having to worry about managing glasses or lenses, I think I saved a lot of financial cost, and I’m satisfied.
