Patient & Partner Inquiries
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the recovery time for SMILE Pro or EVO ICL?
Both procedures boast incredibly fast recovery times. Most patients experience vastly improved vision within 24 hours and are cleared by our partner surgeons to resume normal activities and travel itineraries by the very next day.
Am I a candidate for vision correction if I have severe dry eyes?
Yes. While traditional LASIK can exacerbate dry eye symptoms, procedures like EVO ICL do not alter the cornea's surface and do not induce dry eye syndrome, making them an excellent alternative for many patients.
How soon can I fly after laser eye surgery in Seoul?
We typically require patients to remain in Seoul for 2 to 4 days post-operation. This allows our clinical team to coordinate a final post-operative exam to confirm ocular pressure and healing before officially clearing you for air travel.
Do I need to bring my medical records from my home optometrist?
While helpful for your initial inquiry, it is not strictly necessary. Our partner clinics will perform a comprehensive battery of advanced diagnostic tests on-site in Seoul to map your current ocular health with absolute precision before any procedure.
