Glory Seoul Eye Clinic: LASIK, LASEK, ICL & Cataract Surgery
What does Glory Seoul Eye Clinic offer?
Glory Seoul Eye Clinic (글로리서울안과의원) is a private ophthalmology clinic in Seocho-gu. Its Korea Tourism Organization (VISITKOREA) Medical & Wellness listing names all-laser LASIK, all-laser LASEK, lens implantation, presbyopia correction, cataract surgery and retinal disease care. The clinic's own website lists LASIK, LASEK, "Clear Smile LASIK", lens implants (its site metadata names ICL and Artiflex), LBV (laser blended vision) LASIK for presbyopia, the RainDrop corneal inlay, multifocal laser cataract surgery with CATALYS, and standard cataract surgery.
VISITKOREA says the medical staff are Seoul National University graduates with 15 years of surgical experience and states they have worked on over 100,000 presbyopia and cataract cases. These are the clinic's statements, not independently verified figures.
What equipment does the clinic name?
The only device named in the official sources is the CATALYS femtosecond laser (Johnson & Johnson Vision) used for laser-assisted cataract surgery; the listing also refers to "fourth-generation advanced vision correction equipment" without naming models. Ask which femtosecond and excimer lasers would be used for LASIK or Clear Smile LASIK, and what "Clear Smile" means technically. Because parts of the website look dated, also ask whether every option it lists, such as the corneal inlay, is still offered.

How does the foreign-patient process work?
VISITKOREA lists an interpretation coordinator service in English, Japanese, Chinese and Russian, foreign-language materials and hotel booking recommendations. The clinic's website has Chinese, Japanese and Russian versions and shows Korea Tourism Organization medical-tourism and Gangnam Medical Tour Center badges. The website says the initial exam takes about 30–40 minutes; a complete refractive pre-op workup often takes longer, so ask what is included. Parts of the English website appear not to have been updated recently, so confirm current services, doctors and hours by phone or email before you travel.
Where is it and how do I get there?
Seocho-daero 74-gil is a side street on the Seocho-gu side of Gangnam Station; VISITKOREA describes the clinic as in the vicinity of the station. Ask the clinic for the nearest exit when you book. See where to stay near Gangnam eye clinics.
How does it compare with our procedure guides?
Compared with SMILE-focused clinics nearby, Glory Seoul's listed menu leans toward LASIK/LASEK, presbyopia and cataract surgery. Background reading: laser-assisted cataract surgery, presbyopia treatment, EVO ICL vs Artisan/Artiflex and LASIK. No prices were published in the official sources we reviewed; see our cataract cost guide for Seoul-wide ranges, for comparison only.
What should I ask Glory Seoul Eye Clinic?
- Which lasers are used for LASIK and for Clear Smile LASIK, and what is Clear Smile exactly?
- For presbyopia, how do LBV LASIK, lens options and inlays compare for my eyes?
- Which IOL brands and types do you offer for cataract surgery?
- Which surgeon will operate, and what are the current clinic hours?
- Is the quote per eye or both eyes, and what does it include?
All eye surgery carries risks; presbyopia solutions in particular involve trade-offs in distance, near vision and night vision. A full exam and an ophthalmologist's advice are essential.
