LASEK Korea | BGSS Eye Clinic Seoul · Busan

Are you considering LASEK in Korea for safe and flap-free vision correction?
BGSS Eye Clinic Seoul · Busan provides customized LASEK surgery based on advanced corneal diagnostics and structured recovery management.



LASEK is a surface-based laser vision correction procedure that does not create a corneal flap, making it a suitable alternative for patients with thinner corneas or active lifestyles.

✓ What Is LASEK?

LASEK (Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy) reshapes the cornea by gently removing the epithelial layer before applying an excimer laser.

✓ No corneal flap creation
✓ Suitable for thinner corneas
✓ Reduced flap-related risk
✓ Long-term corneal stability

LASEK is often recommended for:

• Patients with thin corneas
• Individuals involved in contact sports
• Military or physically active professions
• Patients not eligible for LASIK or SMILE

✓ What Makes a Clinic Good for LASEK in Korea?

Successful LASEK surgery depends on precise corneal analysis and careful post-operative management.

✔ Comprehensive Corneal Diagnostics

• Corneal thickness measurement
• Corneal topography mapping
• Wavefront (higher-order aberration) analysis
• Astigmatism axis evaluation
• Dry eye assessment

✔ Customized Laser Planning

• Individualized ablation depth calculation
• Residual stromal bed safety planning
• High myopia correction strategy

✔ Structured Recovery Management

• Protective contact lens application
• Pain management protocol
• Scheduled healing-stage monitoring

At BGSS Eye Clinic, patient safety and long-term corneal integrity are prioritized when determining LASEK candidacy.

✓ Seoul · Busan Network Advantage

• Standardized surgical protocols in both locations
• Flexible follow-up care in Seoul or Busan
• Integrated long-term monitoring system

Patients traveling within Korea can continue recovery care seamlessly.

✓ Who Is a Good Candidate?

• Patients with thin corneas
• Mild to moderate myopia
• Individuals with high-impact lifestyles
• Patients seeking flap-free laser correction

A full diagnostic examination is necessary before confirming suitability.

✓ LASEK Procedure Process

1. Comprehensive pre-operative evaluation (1–2 hours)
2. Consultation with the surgeon
3. LASEK surgery (approximately 10–15 minutes for both eyes)
4. Protective lens placement
5. Scheduled healing and follow-up visits

Recovery takes longer than LASIK or SMILE —
but long-term corneal stability is a key advantage.

✓ How Much Does LASEK Cost in Korea?

The cost of LASEK in Korea may vary depending on:

• Degree of myopia and astigmatism
• Corneal thickness
• Wavefront-guided customization
