Frequently asked questions
How many days from examination to surgery?
Many clinics operate the same day or the day after a detailed examination, while some ask you to return a few days later. Share your travel dates and we will match a clinic that fits.
When can I fly after eye surgery?
In most cases you can fly after the next-day check-up, though some procedures call for a few more days in Korea. The hospital gives the exact timing after surgery.
What if the pre-operative exam finds I am not a candidate?
If conditions such as corneal thickness are unsuitable, the clinic may suggest another method or advise against surgery. Typically only the examination fee applies and no surgery fee is charged, but confirm this at the consultation.
How long before the exam should I stop wearing contact lenses?
Soft lenses usually need to be left out for several days and hard lenses for longer so the measurements are accurate. Each clinic has its own rule, which we confirm when booking.
