Our Culture
LASIK procedure doesn’t take up a lot of time.
Depending on the person, some people will get over the discomfort within 3 to 4 hours. Patients will have to use eye drops that they prescribe for about30 days. The aftermath varies from person to person but there is not a bigdifference.The day after the procedure about 90% of your vision has been cured.So, you can go back to your daily activities the following day. Also, patientshave less post check-ups than LASEK. It has little to no influence from sunlight.
LASIK is more expensive than LASEK due to the extra equipment that are used. LASIK procedure would be ideal for busy workers who would have go back to their daily life immediately, people who drive every day, or patients who willhave difficulty coming in for post check-ups.
LASEK and LASIK procedures are about thesame time.
But, patients of LASEK may feel more discomfort afterwards than the LASIK procedure. This discomfort feeling may last 2 to 3 days and patients will have to use eye drops for 3 to 6 months. The use of eye drops varies from person to person. Some patients may only need the eye drops for 3 months whereas others may need it for 6 months. The negative part to this is patients have to be out of sunlight for about 3 months. Patients must be extra careful with exposure to sunlight. This all varies from patient to patient. After the procedures, the amount of pressure that is put into your eyes will be relieved immensely.
Since there is a difference from patient to patient, it would be best to decide which procedure after going through multiple exams and consulting with a doctor.
Aren’t they all the same? Actually, this is not true. Metro Eye Clinic has done the most vision correction procedures in all of Daegu and
Gyeongbuk region. To add onto their credibility, they have not any medical accidents that have occurred within the last ten years.
Metro Eye Clinic also uses the most state of the art equipment in comparison to other clinics. Different equipment is used to fully
check patients’ eyes. These equipment will examine the patients eye condition to give the best analysis before the LASIK or LASEK
procedure. Since everyone’s eyes are very different, these equipment can cater to virtually everything for the doctor to have a better
outlook and procedure that is customized for each patient. All of this equipment is from credible manufacturers internationally.
