how do I know my power?

Visual acuity Glasses Rx:
R: -3.50/-0.75X1742
L: -2.00/-1.50X54

Refraction Manifest Rx
R: -3.00/-0.50X70
L: -2.50/-1.00X150

I don't know about full correction, but it's not monovision. it will fix my short sightedness and astigmatism, but I still need reading glasses

Recommend to have monovision for your age.

It help reduce your depending on reading glass for most of the time.

My experience.

Yes they earn from your annual eye check. Then when u want to claim warranty if your power comes back, u better make sure your cornea is still thick enough, otherwise they cant do much about it. They are waiting for you to develop eye disease and they can earn from treatment and surgery.

I know their so called "warranty trick".

As long as I still can afford, just go for the checkup. It is like my annual medical checkup.

how about if i make appointment with vista to check if i am eligible for lasik, kind of like second opinion.

If you looking for a 2nd opinion, don't go to this lasik surgery.

There is no different between A lasik and B lasik. Their main is to get customer. What also ok.

Go to eye doc.

Hi,

I am currently in Korea for studying. I just consulted 2 clinics here for my eyes surgery. Both clinics said I am suitable for both Lasik and Lasek. However, since I am leaving in 1 month time, they recommend me IFS Lasik.

The cost is KRW1.3mil (~RM5k). Cheaper compare to Malaysia. But I am worry about future treatment. Since I will here for 1 month only, I can only check-up for 1 month. One of the clinic claim they have the latest equipment (I have yet to get the equipment model). The reason I am considering it here now because I have the time now before go back to work, Korea is more advanced, and also cheaper.

Can anyone advise me if I should do it here? I am most concerned on future follow-up inspection.  Not so much on in case if something hit my eyes etc. One of the clinic actually told me I only have to check 1 day after the operation, then 1 week, and 1 month. Then, no more issue.

Lastly, I am not planning to return to Korea for near time.
*
You crazy? Such simple judgement you can't calculate?

This will take few month to complete recover. And need many time to follow checkup.

Of course comeback here and do la.

That is my main concern.
Only that I read many places especially forum among foreigners in Korea, they do and return to their country.
This make me feel it is plausible.

I don't think it is crazy to consider this and ask in the forum.

It is very clear that you only have a month in there. (Unless you have high degree of shortsighted)

Write down what advantage you have to do it there.

I don't see you need to consider at all. You already answer your own question.

LOL. I don't know what to say about your comment.

I am here looking for someone that can share the follow-up process. Can you share?
*
I already share and tell you at above.

Just get it done here.

And wait for other share with you.
