The A-Z of Laser Eye Surgery - What do you need to know?

03 Mar 2020

Laser Eye Surgery is a life changing eye surgery that has improved the vision and quality of life for thousands of people across Ireland in the last number of years. Optilase are Ireland’s No.1 Laser Eye Surgery providers since 2003. Here they bring you through everything you need to know before your surgery.

What is Laser Eye Surgery?
Laser Eye Surgery is a way of permanently correcting your vision. The procedure uses a special type of laser to gently reshape the surface of the eye. In order to correct certain vision problems such as, nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. Over 30 million people worldwide have chosen to undergo this quick, painless and yet life-changing procedure, to achieve 20/20 vision. Laser eye surgery gives you the opportunity to live a life free from the inconvenience and cost of having to wear glasses and contact lenses.

How will I know if I am suitable for Laser Eye Surgery?
The easiest and best way to find out is to book a free consultation with Optilase, where one of the team’s Laser Optometrists will assess your eyes. There are also a few factors that may make you unsuitable for laser vision correction including having prescriptions stronger than -10 or +5, or having a squint or a lazy eye. But, if you are in any doubt, the absolute best way to find out is to book a free consultation for a professional opinion.

From beginning to End of my procedure with Optilase, I was treated personally and professionally. The surgery, true aftercare was smooth and efficient and I can only say it was the perfect choice for us . I highly recommend Optilase.

I recently had the PRK procedure a month ago. It's been life changing to be able to see clearly after wearing glasses for 20 years. My vision was not 20/20 after surgery since I had PRK and I was first scared that it won't get better. But give it time and patience and it will improve. Optilase was superb on aftercare and the team during the surgery really took care of me. I'm so happy ❤️ Thank you Optilase!

I found the whole process very professional and very well organised. They also assisted in the documentation process very easy. They were also very good to help in arranging the reference process too. If I was make one small comment is they need to add a prescription painkiller to the process. Although the after experience was exactly what was expected it could been managed better with a stronger pain relief. Other than that I have recommended 3 people to get the procedure from Optilase, all of which had a great experience. I would highly recommend Optilase for vision correction and the long term benefits have changed my life.
