Four steps to a glasses-free life

Most of our patients regret one thing after they say goodbye to their glasses: not having dared to take the first step much sooner. With experienced doctors, high-quality technology and proven treatment methods, we support you professionally and service-oriented on your way to a life without visual aids.


Step 1: Initial information about laser eye treatment

We would be happy to advise you in detail about the possibilities of eye laser treatment. You have the choice between a free online video consultation from the comfort of your own home or initial information with an aptitude test directly at one of our locations.

Initial information conveniently from home

Make an appointment for a non-binding online video consultation, which you can enjoy from the comfort of your own home. Use your laptop, smartphone or tablet to connect directly to our laser eye experts with just one click.

At this appointment you can get an overview of the topic of eye laser treatment in a personal conversation and ask your questions about eye laser treatment.

 

Advantages of initial information with an online video consultation:

  • Free and without any obligation
  • One click accessible from any device
  • A specialist answers all your questions – from the comfort of your own home
  • Quick and easy access, so you can save waiting time and travel


Who is this appointment suitable for?

This appointment is suitable for anyone interested who has had little or no contact with the topic of laser eye surgery or who would like to get an overview of laser eye treatment first.

For those interested who would like both initial information and an aptitude test for eye laser surgery, we recommend an appointment on site. 

Initial information + on-site aptitude test

We would be happy to welcome you to a personal information meeting at one of our locations.

On this date, one of our opticians or master opticians will already carry out an initial aptitude test for eye laser surgery. The following examinations are carried out:

  • Measuring the strength of the glasses using a lens meter
  • Objective refraction
  • Pachymetry (measuring the thickness of the cornea)
  • Topography (measurement of the corneal surface)
  • Determination of visual acuity
  • Measuring the dark pupil
  • Tonometry (measurement of intraocular pressure)

After the eye examination, we will inform you about possible treatment methods and answer your questions about laser eye treatment.

Tip: Save time by combining both steps

Combine the aptitude test directly with the preliminary medical examination (step 2) during an on-site visit and save time. You receive comprehensive examination results of your eyes and know whether and if so, with which treatment method your ametropia can be corrected.

Step 2: The preliminary medical examination

During the preliminary medical examination, we measure every millimeter of your eyes and thus lay the foundation for optimal treatment results.

Please note before this examination:

  • If you use soft contact lenses, take them out of your appointment for at least 2 days. Hard contact lenses must not be used for at least 1 week beforehand.
  • During the preliminary examination you will be given pupil-dilating eye drops. As a result, your vision will be blurred for a short time and you may experience a temporary sensitivity to light. It is therefore advisable to take sunglasses with you. After this examination, you will not be able to drive a car yourself. Ideally, please bring someone to accompany you on the way home.

 

Important: Due to the current corona situation, we have to limit the number of people in our locations for the safety of our patients and employees. We therefore ask your companion to wait for you outside our premises.

During the preliminary medical examination, you have the opportunity to ask your treating specialist any questions you may have. If your eyes are suitable for the laser, nothing stands in the way of a treatment and we will see you again on the day of the treatment.

Step 3: The eye laser treatment

On the day of the treatment, we ask you to be with us at least half an hour before your laser appointment. You will receive a detailed drop plan and further instructions on what to consider after the treatment. We will then administer numbing eye drops in preparation for the treatment. The eye laser treatment only takes about 10 minutes per eye; the use of the laser itself only lasts a few seconds.

After the treatment you rest with us for about half an hour. After a short check, you can go home.


Step 4: The aftercare & behavior after the eye laser surgery

Depending on the treatment method (LASIK, PRK/LASEK, Femto-LASIK or Trans PRK) and your needs, you will have several follow-up appointments with us. We want you to feel optimally cared for even after the treatment and are always there for you if you have any questions.

Now you can start a new life without glasses or contact lenses and look forward to seeing clearly with your own eyes!
