Hello, this is Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic.
Today, we're here to share the details of our appearance on Maeil Business TV's Magazine Today!
The broadcast date was last Friday, September 6th!
The topic of the broadcast was,
Protecting Your Eye Health, Which Determines Your First Impression
Chief Director Yeom Dong-ju was invited to provide medical advice on eye health.

The director, with a nervous expression, is studying the script before filming..!
It looks just like us cramming the night before an exam, doesn't it?

He adjusts his attire and prepares for the full-scale filming!

The 218th episode of Magazine Today, broadcast on Maeil Business TV, focused on the side effects and dangers of circle lenses worn for first impressions.

Here is the director passionately giving his medical opinion.


While circle lenses have a cosmetic effect of making the iris appear larger,
they can also lead to the whites of the eyes becoming bloodshot.


Furthermore, if scratches occur on the corneal surface
or inflammation develops due to bacteria, it can affect vision.
In particular, if a scratched area becomes infected and inflamed, it can lead to ‘corneal ulcers’,
so it is crucial to be careful about inflammation.


Also, if the cornea suffers from oxygen deprivation for a long period due to lenses,
our eyes create ‘neovascularization’ to survive.
If neovascularization penetrates the iris, the pupil can appear smaller and blurry,
meaning the lenses worn to make the pupil look larger actually cause the opposite effect.


Additionally, there are side effects such as amoeba parasite infection, which lens wearers may have heard of at least once,
or the impossibility of vision correction surgery.
Therefore, when wearing circle lenses, it is essential to adhere to the appropriate wearing time,
and manage them according to the precautions.
The broadcast not only discussed the dangers of circle lenses,
but also explained ‘Eye Ring Pupil Surgery’ as an alternative
that can protect eye health while still offering cosmetic benefits.

Eye Ring Surgery is a cosmetic procedure that involves inserting a circular ring around the iris
to make the pupil appear larger!
The circular ring is an ocular implant approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety,
and is, of course, a very safe procedure with proven safety.

Since the surgery is permanent,
not needing daily management like circle lenses is also a significant advantage.
Considering that most circle lens side effects stem from insufficient management,
it can be said to be an excellent choice not only for efficiency but also for eye health.
Our Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic has
many clinical cases regarding Eye Ring Surgery.
For those who suffer from frequent circle lens side effects,
we always perform surgery safely and transparently from the patient's perspective,
to provide a good alternative that can help overcome complexes while protecting eye health.
We kindly ask for your interest and inquiries :)
We will always be Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic,
able to bring smiles to our patients.
Thank you😊
