I voted for Laservision in Leeson street as two of my family and three friends have had surgery there over the last 12 months. All of them had been debating laser eye surgery for years, were scared and unsure and kept putting it off. It was a bit of a ripple effect once one went, they all followed suit. None had have regrets other than they should have done this years ago.
Choosing a clinic is a minefield some offer prices very low but when you check it out they are charging by prescription so the price is not very low at all. Others have had a monopoly for years and you pay 2,000 euro plus per eye for this.
They were happy with Laservision for a number of reasons: it is possible to get top professional surgeons for a cheaper price, the surgeons there are in residence so are available for post-op and emergency aftercare, There are also clinic audits available.The laser eye surgery clinics are not regulated so it is important for us the consumers to pass on information and questions to ask when choosing a clinic. BTW notice a lot of queries on prescription, suitability, recovery time for Lasek etc on these boards. There is an ask the eye surgeon forum on www.laservision.ie where you can put your queries directly to the surgeon.
