What the price includes, and what it doesn't

The short answerA laser eye surgery price in Ireland usually includes the treatment, drops and the first months of check-ups. The assessment ranges from free to €200, and top-ups and later visits vary most between clinics, so ask about both in writing.

Varies a lot

  • The assessment: free to €200. Some clinics take a paid assessment off the treatment price.
  • Later visits: once the included period ends, a check costs about €120 to €230 at some clinics, depending on who you see.
  • Top-ups: about 1 in 10 people need one. Some prices include it for a year or more; some charge.
  • Lifetime care schemes: read the conditions, including any check-ups you must keep going to and what they cost.

Not included

  • Travel and a lift home on the day: you can't drive yourself.
  • Time off work: about two days for LASIK, five for LASEK or PRK.
  • Sunglasses and lubricating drops after the first course.

Get it in writing

Ask for a written, all-in price after your assessment that lists each item above. Don't book or pay on the day of a free consultation. The Royal College of Ophthalmologists advises at least a week between seeing the surgeon and deciding, and a deposit you can get back.
