​Insurance costs

Laser eye procedures are usually self-funded, whether performed in Austria or abroad.

Before travelling, it’s important to check which medical services your travel or private insurance will cover in case of follow-up care or unforeseen complications.

At Smartlaser Vienna, all treatments and check-ups take place locally – so there’s no need to arrange separate medical insurance for treatment abroad.

​Accommodation costs

If you choose treatment outside your home country, you may need to plan for accommodation for several days or even weeks, depending on recovery time and follow-up visits.

These accommodation costs are usually not included in advertised treatment prices.

​Costs for follow-up appointments

Successful laser eye surgery always requires at least one or two check-ups after the operation.

If these can’t be done near your home, you’ll need to consider the time and cost of travelling back for those visits.

Travel costs

Travelling abroad for surgery means adding transport costs for you and any accompanying person – and possibly a second trip for follow-up care.

When you stay in your own country, these travel requirements are naturally lower.

​Costs for work absences

Longer travel and recovery times abroad can mean taking additional days off work.

Having your treatment in Vienna helps you minimise disruption to your daily life and return to normal activities sooner.

preliminary laser eye examination

The foundation for successful laser eye surgery is a thorough preliminary examination. In this preliminary examination, we discuss your personal needs and determine your initial condition. On this basis, we decide which treatment method is best for you: Trans-PRK.

You can use this opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the treatment and the further process. Our renowned eye specialists from Vienna will be happy to take the time to talk to you. Ultimately, you can decide for yourself whether you want to have your eyes lasered at the Smartlaser eye laser center in Vienna or not.

On the day of the procedure, the final preparations are made and questions are answered. To ensure that you do not experience any pain during or after the operation, you will be given anaesthetic eye drops. The exact treatment procedure is determined by the laser eye method .

The procedure takes around 30 minutes in total, with the laser only being used for a few moments. Most patients are surprised at how quick and painless laser eye surgery is.

eye laser result control

After a relatively short time (depending on the method), you should come in for a result check. During this short appointment, the bandage lens will be removed and your doctor will check the progress of the healing process and the result.

If you have any questions about the next steps, we will answer them. If necessary, you will be informed about further steps to support the healing process. In the next few days and weeks, you will be able to enjoy your new-found vision (at the latest).

eye laser follow-up

The follow-up is your final appointment and the end of your journey to a life without vision problems. The healing process of your eyes should be completely finished. Your Smartlaser expert will check this and discuss the final result with you.
