Lasik in Saigon

G
#1
Has anyone had their eyes lasered in Saigon, I have narrowed it down to three places after reading reviews.

Cao Thang eye hospital.
American eye center.
Saigon eye hospital.

Reviews can be misleading at times, so I'm looking for replies from people who have had it done.

I suffer from Presbyopia, what was your condition before having the treatment. Articles I have read have mentioned Monovision Lasik as an alternative to contact lenses.

I don't know the medical term, but I could not see well at a distance. I wore contact lens before. Thankfully, no need now.

Also on my list of things to do; from speaking to both the American Eye centre and CT, CT is cheaper. Obviously, you can't put a price on making sure your eyesight is properly corrected, however, it seems like you're paying for the name 'American Eye' rather than anything else.

One thing I'm struggling to understand is the difference between LASIK and LASEK? Can anyone shed any light on that?
