I had poor vision since I was young, so I used to wear glasses, and once I became an adult, I really wanted to get LASIK or LASEK. Then an acquaintance told me there was a place where they had LASIK done, so this is the clinic I got recommended! Since it is a surgery that affects vision, I was scared of side effects and worried a lot that my vision might not improve properly. But at the clinic, the director consulted with me very kindly, and they said both LASEK and SMILE LASIK were possible, so I decided on SMILE LASIK and had same-day surgery after the consultation. At first, I was scared because it felt like my eyes couldn't focus, but the director said that in the early stage, this can happen while the vision is settling. After I adjusted a bit, my focus became clear, and when I had an exam one month later, both eyes were 1.2. My vision is still maintained now, and I was worried I might get dry eye syndrome, but I have no eye dryness or glare at all. I’m very satisfied :)
