The Cutting-Edge SMILE LASIK Procedure

SMILE LASIK (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction) is revolutionizing the field of laser eye surgery. At SNU Eye Clinic, we are proud to be among the first in Korea to offer this minimally invasive vision correction procedure.

Benefits of SMILE LASIK

  • Precision and Safety: A small, 2mm incision reduces the risk of complications while maintaining the integrity of the cornea.

  • Faster Recovery: Most patients experience significant visual improvement within 24 hours and a return to daily activities within days.

  • Broad Suitability: SMILE LASIK effectively addresses high levels of myopia and astigmatism, offering hope to those previously deemed ineligible for other laser treatments.

Led by Dr. Chung Eui Sang, a pioneer in SMILE LASIK, SNU Eye Clinic has performed thousands of successful surgeries, helping patients regain clear vision and confidence.

Customized Lens Implantation Surgery

For patients who are not candidates for laser-based treatments, lens implantation surgery is a game-changing solution. This procedure involves placing a custom-designed lens inside the eye to correct refractive errors without altering the cornea.

Why Choose Lens Implantation Surgery?

  • Ideal for Complex Cases: Suitable for individuals with thin corneas, high refractive errors, or dry eyes.

  • High Precision: Advanced 3D imaging ensures the perfect fit and placement of the lens for optimal results.

  • Permanent Correction: Provides a long-term solution for vision correction with minimal maintenance.

With over 20 years of expertise, SNU Eye Clinic ensures that every lens implantation surgery is performed with meticulous precision and care.

Advanced Treatment for Presbyopia and Cataracts

Age-related vision challenges like presbyopia and cataracts can significantly impact your quality of life. At SNU Eye Clinic, we offer innovative treatments to restore clear, youthful vision.

Multifocal Intraocular Lenses

Our specialists recommend multifocal intraocular lenses to address both presbyopia and cataracts simultaneously. These lenses are designed to:

  • Restore near, intermediate, and distance vision.

  • Provide a seamless visual experience, reducing the need for glasses.

  • Adapt to individual lifestyle needs, ensuring personalized care.

Our commitment to patient satisfaction drives us to deliver transformative results for every individual seeking to regain their visual clarity.
