Gangnam St. Mary's One Eye Center

Gangnam St. Mary's One Eye Center procedures offered:

Vision Correction Procedures:

• LASIK: This laser procedure reshapes the cornea to correct vision issues such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. It is known for quick recovery and minimal discomfort.

• LASEK: Similar to LASIK, this procedure involves reshaping the cornea but with a different approach to the corneal flap, making it suitable for patients with thin corneas. Recovery may take slightly longer than LASIK.

• Smile LASIK: This minimally invasive procedure uses a laser to create a small incision in the cornea to correct vision issues. It offers a faster recovery and less discomfort compared to traditional LASIK.

• ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) Surgery: A lens is surgically inserted into the eye to correct vision, suitable for patients who may not be ideal candidates for LASIK or LASEK. This procedure is reversible and offers excellent quality of vision.

Presbyopia/Cataract Procedures:

• Presbyopia Correction: This procedure aims to restore near vision that typically decreases due to age-related changes in the eye's lens. Various surgical options, including multifocal lenses, can be employed to correct presbyopia.

• Cataract Surgery: The cloudy lens caused by cataracts is removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens. This procedure significantly improves vision and can reduce reliance on glasses or contact lenses.

• Multifocal Intraocular Lens Implantation: During cataract surgery, a multifocal lens is implanted to correct vision across various distances, reducing the need for glasses. This lens type allows for clear vision at near, intermediate, and far distances.

Pediatric Vision Procedures:

• Myopia Control with Dream Lenses: Orthokeratology lenses are worn overnight to reshape the cornea temporarily, controlling the progression of myopia in children. This non-surgical option helps reduce the development of high myopia.

• Myopia Control with MyoGuard: This treatment plan involves using specialized lenses or eye drops to slow down the progression of myopia in children. Regular monitoring and adjustments ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.

Corneal Transplantation Procedures:

• Corneal Transplant: Also known as keratoplasty, this procedure replaces a damaged or diseased cornea with healthy donor tissue. It restores vision and can correct corneal conditions like keratoconus and corneal scarring.

Dry Eye Care Procedures:

• Comprehensive Dry Eye Treatment Program: This program includes various diagnostic tests and treatments to manage dry eye syndrome. It may involve eye drops, punctal plugs, or advanced therapies like IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment.

Specialized Lens Procedures:

• Scleral Lenses: These large-diameter lenses rest on the sclera and provide excellent comfort and vision for patients with irregular corneas or severe dry eyes. They are custom-fitted to each patient’s eye surface.

• Keratoconus Lenses: These specialized lenses are designed to fit the irregular shape of a keratoconic cornea, providing clearer vision and improved comfort over standard contact lenses.

Glaucoma and Retinal Disease Treatments:

• Glaucoma Management: A range of treatments, including medications, laser therapy, and surgical interventions, are available to manage intraocular pressure and prevent vision loss from glaucoma.

• Retinal Disease Treatment: Advanced diagnostic and treatment options, such as laser therapy, intravitreal injections, and surgery, are used to manage conditions like diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration.
