Hello!
We are Gangnam 'Smile Eye Clinic', dedicated to restoring the happy smiles that come from the joy of seeing clearly!

As interest in eye health grows, so does the interest in eye surgery, along with questions about anesthesia methods, surgical equipment, side effects, and complications.
Smile Eye Clinic is here to answer your questions!

At Smile Eye Clinic, before performing LASIK, LASEK, or implantable lens surgery,
we use topical anesthesia, not injection anesthesia.
By using anesthetic eye drops and anti-inflammatory pain-relieving eye drops,
we reduce the burden of anesthesia with a simple method of instilling eye drops.

With advanced laser surgical equipment, we minimize surgery time and the damaged area,
which can reduce post-operative pain.
The rich experience of our medical staff combined with excellent equipment ensures
delicate eye surgery with minimal burden on your precious eyes.

While no eye surgery is 100% free of side effects and complications,
we prevent them through thorough pre-operative examinations and 1:1 customized surgery.
With over 50 precise examinations and 1:1 customized surgery based on extensive clinical experience,
we find the safest and most suitable surgical method for you.
