MIGS (Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery) usually takes 15 to 45 minutes to perform. Most patients can go home the same day, and recovery is relatively quick. In the first week, you should avoid strenuous activities and follow post-operative care instructions, including using eye drops. Many patients can return to normal activities within 1 to 2 weeks, with full recovery taking around 1 to 3 months. Recovery time may vary depending on the procedure type and individual health factors, but overall, MIGS offers a faster and less invasive recovery compared to traditional glaucoma surgeries.
I had cataract surgery at SNU Eye Clinic, and the whole process was smoother than I expected. The procedure itself only took about 20 minutes, and I was able to go home the same day. For the first couple of days, I had some mild discomfort and blurred vision, but it cleared up quickly. Within two weeks I was back to normal activities. Dr. Chung Eui Sang explained everything clearly, which really put me at ease. I felt well cared for throughout, and I’m glad I chose this clinic.
After my cataract surgery, my vision was a little blurry at first but started clearing within a few hours. By the next day, I could see clearly, and within two days I was back to my normal routine. Following the aftercare made recovery smooth, and within a month everything felt completely healed.
Dr. Chung and his team at SNU Eye Clinic made the whole process easy and stress-free. From the consultation to the follow-ups, I always felt well taken care of. Waking up and seeing clearly without glasses has been truly life-changing.
