During winter break before graduating high school, I wanted to stop wearing glasses, so in just 3 days I looked up clinics, had a consultation, and had surgery the same day... When I was sitting in the waiting room after surgery, it didn’t hurt, but when I got home, my eyes felt like they were being torn apart, I couldn’t even open them, and I couldn’t put in eye drops, so they just kept streaming down... If I probably hadn’t had a guardian next to me, I don’t think I could have put in the eye drops... Then it took about a month and a half for my vision to fully recover. I used to wear -3 diopter glasses, and my recovered vision was 1.0, which has been maintained well until now... If it had been a premium surgery costing several million won, maybe the pain would have been much less... As for side effects, there’s nothing except my eyes getting tired and very dry if I look at my phone for a long time... It’s one of the best things I’ve done in my life.
