Riya, a friend of mine, had high myopia and was sick of wearing contact lenses and bulky glasses all the time. She began researching vision correction options because she wanted a more long-term fix. She then became aware of lens implant surgery, which involves inserting a unique artificial lens into the eye to improve vision. For those who are not good candidates for LASIK, particularly those with severe nearsightedness, it is frequently advised.
Dr. Kim Jun-heon performed the surgery on Riya at the Gangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic in Seoul. He put her at ease and gave her a thorough explanation of everything. The clinic was state-of-the-art and expertly run. Her vision significantly improved following the surgery, and she now confidently and comfortably lives without glasses.
When my relative started looking into ways to improve their vision, we got help from Cloud Hospital, which connected us with SNU Eye Clinic in Seoul. There, Dr. Chung Eui Sang took the time to explain lens implant surgery in simple terms. Basically, it’s a procedure where they replace the eye’s natural lens with an artificial one to fix problems like severe nearsightedness, farsightedness, or cataracts. It’s especially a good option for people who might not be the best fit for laser surgeries like LASIK or SMILE.
Dr. Chung also shared that this surgery is often recommended for people over 40 or those with very strong prescriptions or early signs of cataracts. Thanks to Cloud Hospital guiding us through the whole process, from the first consultation to understanding if lens implant surgery was the right choice, my relative felt much more at ease. Having that support really made a big difference in feeling confident about moving forward.
My sister had been wearing thick glasses for most of her life, and while she considered LASIK, she was told she wasn’t an ideal candidate due to her thin corneas. That’s when she discovered lens implant surgery, a vision correction procedure that involves placing a tiny lens inside the eye to correct refractive errors. She chose SNU Eye Clinic in Seoul, where Dr. Chung Eui Sang guided her through the process. He explained that lens implant surgery is especially suitable for people with high degrees of nearsightedness or those who aren’t eligible for corneal-based surgeries.
The entire experience at SNU Eye Clinic was reassuring and professional. The surgery was quick, and she noticed a dramatic improvement in her vision almost immediately. Recovery was smooth, with regular follow-ups ensuring everything was healing as expected. Today, she’s glasses-free for the first time since childhood and couldn’t be happier. She always recommends Dr. Chung Eui Sang to friends looking for a safe and effective alternative to LASIK.
When my father found out he wasn’t a good candidate for LASIK or SMILE due to his thin corneas and high myopia, we were initially disappointed. But through Cloud Hospital, we were connected to SNU Eye Clinic in Seoul, where Dr. Chung Eui Sang introduced us to an excellent alternative—lens implant surgery, also known as Implantable Collamer Lens surgery. Unlike laser procedures that reshape the cornea, lens implants involve placing a specially designed artificial lens inside the eye without removing the natural one. It’s a fantastic option for people with high degrees of myopia, dry eye issues, or those who aren’t eligible for corneal-based surgeries.
My father underwent the procedure smoothly. It was painless and surprisingly quick, and within a few days, his vision clarity was something he hadn’t experienced in decades. Dr. Chung explained that ideal candidates are generally over 20, have stable vision, and are seeking a reversible, highly accurate form of correction. What impressed us most was the thorough evaluation SNU Eye Clinic did before approving the surgery—they made sure it was the safest and most effective option for my father’s eye health. We left feeling reassured and grateful that such an advanced and tailored solution was available outside the traditional laser route.
My friend had lens implant surgery at Global Ubal Eye Center, and it really changed her life. She had trouble seeing clearly even with glasses, and the doctors said she was a good candidate for lens implants. The procedure involved replacing her natural eye lens with an artificial one, which helped her see much better without needing glasses all the time. It’s often done for people with cataracts or those who can’t have LASIK.
Hello, I used to rely on thick glasses every day, and it made daily life a bit frustrating. Then I discovered lens implant surgery, a procedure where a clear artificial lens is placed inside the eye to correct vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. It’s especially helpful for people who aren’t good candidates for LASIK. After learning more, I felt hopeful that this could be my solution.
I chose Gangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic in Seoul, and my doctor was Dr. Kim Jun-heon. He was kind, professional, and explained everything in a very simple way. The surgery went smoothly, and now I wake up every day seeing clearly without glasses. It truly changed my life.
My friend initially planned for laser vision correction, but after her consultation at Gangnam Joeunnun Vision Clinic (arranged through Cloud Hospital Dr. Kim Jun-heon suggested lens implant surgery might actually be a better option for her. Lens implant surgery—also called **ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) or phakic lens implantation—is a procedure where a special lens is inserted into the eye without removing the natural lens. It’s ideal for people who aren’t good candidates for LASIK or SMILE, especially those with very high myopia or thin corneas.
In her case, her corneal thickness wasn’t suitable for laser surgery, and her prescription was quite high. Dr. Kim explained that ICL would provide sharp, stable vision without the risks of corneal reshaping. The team walked her through the screening process, which included detailed eye measurements, anterior chamber depth evaluation, and general eye health checks. After being approved, she had the surgery in less than an hour with a fast recovery. Now she sees 20/20 and says it was one of the best decisions she’s made—thanks to the careful evaluation and guidance she got from both the clinic and Cloud Hospital.
