Here we bring you through a few facts around these procedures and what the treatment of these may entail.

Laser Eye Surgery
Laser Eye Surgery is a way of permanently correcting your vision, and is a surgery that millions of people the World over have been getting to achieve 20/20 vision for years.

The first step in any surgery is to assess your suitability and Laser Eye Surgery is no different. Generally speaking your suitability will depend on what your vision problem is.

The surgery has many advantages, the surgery is short and painless and has wonderful results. If you are in any doubt about whether or not you are suitable for the surgery, then help is only an appointment away. Optilase offer a free consultation with one of their Optometrists for all potential patients, in order to determine if this surgery is the right solution to your individual vision difficulties.

Laser Eye Surgery has become popular over the last number of years, due mainly to the life altering results. And because of this, as well as advances in technology, it has definitely become more and more affordable.

If you’re worried about the cost don’t be, many Optilase patients at the Clinic opt for interest free finance plans, and as well as this you can also avail of 20% tax relief on the cost of the treatment. For all the best prices and offers in Ireland’s most respected Eye Clinic, visit the Optilase website.

Reading Vision Correction
If you’re finding yourself having to squint to read small text or you’re having difficulty with your near vision, you may have a condition called Presbyopia. This condition means that as we get older we can lose the sharpness of our near vision, causing problems with clarity of fine print up close which can be very annoying and debilitating. These symptoms might mean that everyday tasks like reading the newspaper or a text might become a little more difficult. If this is the case for you, then Reading Vision Correction might just be the answer.

And if you’re aged between 40 and 65, you’re in good company as this is the age group where most people experience this loss of crispness and clarity of vision, the technical explanation for this condition describes it as the loss or ability to focus on near objects as the eye ages, and the symptoms occur when the eye’s natural lens loses its flexibility and stiffens with age.

Optilase, Ireland’s No.1 Private Eye Clinic, has been treating patients with these eye iss
ues for years so it’s fair to say they know a thing or two about what you might be experiencing. Don’t delay - if you think you have any of these symptoms there’s no time like the present to find a solution to your problem.

Cataract Surgery
Cataract problems are very common, especially as we get older. In fact Cataracts usually appear when you are in your 40’s or 50’s, and starting to affect your sight when you are in your 60’s. But they can also appear if you’ve had radiation treatments, diabetes, corticosteroid medications or any type of eye trauma.

So just what are cataracts? Essentially, they are cloudy patches in the lens, which is the transparent structure at the front of your eye. They can make your vision blurred or misty and can develop in one or both eyes, and often one eye can often be more affected than the other.

The good news is that you don’t need to live with the frustrating effects of Cataract. The procedure has a high success rate and the procedure to remove a cataract usually lasts only 30-45 minutes, with your vision being improved almost immediately. Could there be any greater satisfaction?

What about the cost?
With no hidden costs or upselling, a lot of Optilase patients end up paying less than our published price. And that’s always a plus, especially when you are guaranteed to receive Ireland’s No.1 professional eye surgery experience with great results.

Many Eye Surgeries have become popular over the last number of years, due mainly to the life altering results. And because of this, as well as advances in technology, these procedures have definitely become more and more affordable.

If you’re worried about the cost don’t be, many Optilase patients at the Clinic opt for interest free finance plans, and as well as this you can also avail of 20% tax relief on the cost of the treatment. For all the best prices and offers in Ireland’s most respected Eye Clinic, visit the Optilase website.

I had LASIK done in Dublin after a consultation and follow up in Derry. From the very start, Elizabeth in Derry put me at ease with her approach. Such a warm, helpful way about her. Surgeon Mikhall Hernandez took the time to meet me in advance to explain the process. All the staff- Iwona, Julie, Jess, Robbie (from Donegal!) and Rachael, I really appreciated the way they supported me from start to finish

I had a great LASIK experience at Optilase Carrickmines and couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr. Tom Materman is incredibly kind, attentive, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him, as well as the whole Optilase team! I didn’t feel anything during the procedure, which was much easier than I expected. My recovery has also been going really well—I’m only on day two, and everything has been smooth so far. Thank you to everyone at Optilase for the excellent care!

Life changing. From the initial consultation to the aftercare, Optilase have been friendly, professional and caring every step of the way. No worry or concern was too small for a detailed discussion and helpful response. 3 months after my phakic lens surgery my vision is as good as it ever was with glasses without the hassle. Would recommend the Optilase Carrickmines team to anyone.
