An eye consultation before vision correction.
An advertised procedure name is not a diagnosis. An eye assessment comes first; the clinician can then explain whether a procedure is appropriate and what other options you have.
Ask how to prepare for the examination.
Tell the clinic if you wear contact lenses and ask for instructions for your lens type before the examination. Share relevant eye history and medications directly with the eye doctor.
Discuss more than the procedure name.
Ask what the examination showed, which options are suitable and why. Discuss expected vision, possible dry-eye or night-vision symptoms, and the option of continuing with glasses or contact lenses.
Leave time for the checks afterward.
Ask about follow-up visits, transport after the procedure and support once you are home. Confirm these arrangements before fixing your travel dates; an online request cannot promise same-day treatment.
Questions to take to your consultation
Keep these questions handy when you speak with a clinic.
- Is this a consultation only, and is there a consultation fee?
- What appointments or checks will I need before returning home?
- Who should I contact if a problem develops after I leave Korea?
