[Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic] If you have high myopia and fear pain, choose Today LASEK!

Hello, this is Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic😊

The main types of laser vision correction are LASIK, LASEK, and SMILE.

Each vision correction method has different pros and cons, such as the amount of corneal tissue removed and recovery speed.

Therefore, after a precise examination, you should decide on the surgical method that is right for your eyes.

In cases of high myopia, where the prescription is very strong,

a larger amount of corneal tissue needs to be removed,

which relatively limits the available vision correction methods.

Among laser vision correction surgeries, LASEK removes the least amount of corneal tissue,

so LASEK is often recommended.

LASEK has the advantage of removing the least amount of corneal stroma

and being resistant to external impact, but

because it involves removing the entire outer layer of the cornea

and allowing new tissue to grow back,

it entails significant pain and a longer recovery period.

Therefore, many people who are sensitive to recovery time and pain

tend not to prefer LASEK surgery.

Gangnam Today LASEK uses an all-laser, one-touch laser system

to minimize unnecessary irritation, thereby reducing inflammatory reactions,

and is further optimized for pain reduction.

Additionally, because it corrects a smaller surgical area than traditional LASEK,

the recovery speed is significantly faster compared to traditional LASEK.

For traditional LASEK, the recovery period for daily life is 4-5 days,

whereas for Today LASEK, as the name suggests, it's about two days.

The ‘Amaris Red’ laser used in Gangnam Today LASEK

features a 3D volumetric laser, a minimal corneal ablation system, a 7D eye tracking system,

and a small laser spot size to create a smooth corneal surface,

offering the advantage of being even safer than traditional LASEK and improving the quality of vision after surgery.

In short, you can think of Today LASEK as a premium among premium LASEK surgeries.

Furthermore, using self-serum eye drops and Speed-Up eye drops after surgery

can be even more effective for vision recovery and pain relief.

Self-serum eye drops are eye drops made by extracting healing factors from platelets and plasma.

They have no side effects or rejection reactions like artificial tears,

and the healing growth factors assist in healing,

making them very beneficial for post-operative pain and recovery, and excellent for preventing dry eyes.

‘Speed-Up’ refers to eye drops formulated with ingredients optimized for Today LASEK

to maximize recovery speed and minimize inflammatory reactions.

As the name suggests, these eye drops help speed up corneal recovery.

Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic provides self-serum and Speed-Up eye drops free of charge

to those undergoing Today LASEK.

Therefore, for those who are sensitive to pain

and have limited time for recovery,

we highly recommend Today LASEK at Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic.
