Smile Eye Clinic Korea uses a comprehensive screening process involving over 12 unique measurements. Corneal thickness is assessed through Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and dedicated pachymetry tools. These tests help identify thin corneas or early signs of keratoconus. The clinic utilizes these findings to confirm safety for SMILE PRO, LASIK, and ICL procedures. Results from the OCT scans provide high-definition imaging of the corneal layers. This Seoul facility specializes in advanced laser vision correction screenings.
