Is ICL/SMILE worth getting in Seoul instead of the US? How long should I stay?

I'm trying to decide between ICL vs SMILE, and whether it's worth getting the procedure in Seoul vs the US. A few questions for those who've gone through either procedure:

• Is ICL or SMILE significantly cheaper in Seoul compared to the US?
• If you had the choice again, would you still choose Seoul over getting it done locally?
• If you had surgery in Seoul as an international patient, how many follow-up appointments were required before you were cleared to fly home?
• How was your vision during the first week? Were you comfortable walking around and exploring the city, or did you mostly need to rest?

I'd like to make a vacation out of the trip if I go to Seoul, so I'm trying to figure out whether I should request 1 or 2 weeks off from work to allow for follow-ups and recovery while still having some time to explore.

I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences, including which places you chose, your prescription, and how long you stayed after surgery. I have seen the usual places mentioned such as BGN, Bright Eye, etc. I would also like to hear about places to avoid. Thank you!
