Reviews of Optilase Clinic Laser Eye Surgery Dublin
T. M.
I got my laser eye surgery done by Optilase. Prior to my treatment, naturally I was quite nervous. I had called Optilase to talk me through the procedure and after care. The girls in reception were very kind on the phone and this helped me to relax when it came to the surgery. The surgery was super quick. After a number of days, Optilase rang to check up on me which was nice. My check ups ran smoothly and it was very exciting to see my vision improvements during each check up. I had very bad eyesight prior to the surgery!! I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone who wishes to get laser eye surgery done.

I honestly can not recommend Optilase enough. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and extremely knowledgable. They made me feel completely at ease the morning of my surgery. The nurses spoke to me and held my hand during my procedure to ease the nerves. My surgery was pain free. The after care was exceptional. No question ever seemed too silly to ask. I had my laser eye surgery 4 years ago and it was life changing for me and I have never looked back.
I highly recommend Optilase.

I am now two weeks post LASIK and it is hands down the best decision I ever made. From the beginning all the staff in Optilase were so helpful and professional. All my queries and reservations were dealt with courtesy and compassion. I was initially very nervous about the procedure but everyone put me at ease. The procedure itself was painless, quick and very straight forward. I had no complications post op. And the main thing is I can see perfectly. My only regret is not having it done a long time ago. My life has been changed for the better. I can’t thank Optilase enough.

From start to finish, Optilase has been amazing. The staff is so friendly whether it is front desk or the surgeon. I cannot find a fault. I qualified for Lasik and I am recovering so well. It’s amazing to be able to see without contacts and glasses. It’s reassuring to know I can contact Optilase day or night should I have concerns but luckily I haven’t needed to. They explain everything so well and make sure you know how to proceed after leaving them with your eye drops.
Seriously, if anyone is on the fence about doing it.. JUST DO IT.

Deciding to go for laser eye surgery was the best decision I ever made. My life has been made so much easier not having to depend on contact lenses and glasses. Simple things like getting up first thing in the morning or getting out of the shower and being able to immediately see clearly is just amazing!
All the staff I dealt with from the very first person I spoke with on the phone about booking my initial consultation to the after care nurse who walked me to the front door after my surgery were so professional, helpful, friendly and reassuring.
The surgery itself was so quick it was over before I knew it!
My only regret is not doing it sooner.
To anybody considering laser eye vision correction I highly recommend Optilase!
S. D.
Great Service and amazing result. I initially had quite dry eyes, so I was asked to use some eye gel to be a fit for surgery. I did that for a few months and went back for two additional check-ups. Once the condition had improved they booked me in for surgery. The LASIK surgery was super quick and my eyes recovered within a couple of days. It made me feel more confident that they did multiple check ups before surgery. Staff was great and the result is just impressive. Still keep looking for my glasses sometimes just out of habit :)

I had laser eye surgery at optilase and it has changed my life . I don't need to worry about uncomfortable contact lenses that irritate my eyes anymore . I had bad vision so swimming was always out for me even enjoying time in the pool on holiday was a struggle. Now I can enjoy all these things without a second thought because my vision is perfect. the staff are also so helpful ,always Available at the end of the phone.
S. B.
I just had laser eye surgery done 2 weeks ago. Optilase were so helpful and professional throughout the process. Very informative about the procedure and aftercare. I had perfect vision the day after, after years of depending on glasses and contacts. Highly recommend it to anyone who's considering it!
D. M.
Fantastic service. Highly professional and attentive staff, with excellent after-care support. I had concerns after my surgery and received additional free visits to put my mind at ease. The best decision I ever made was getting laser done and I've recommended Optilase to several friends since then.

I did an eyesight correction procedure with Optilase about 3-4 years ago. It was very well managed from initial consultation to post-op procedures. I had a little bit of dryness in my eyes for an year, but I followed their advice closely and I've not had any issues since. Like any medical procedure, there are always risks involved, but having perfect eyesight is such an improvement in quality of life that it greatly outweighs the possible complications. Whenever dealing with sensitive things, always follow the advice to the extreme! Rest when you are told to rest, put eye drops religiously, and have healthy habits. That will ensure you have the full benefits.
I would definitely recommend the procedure and the clinic. They have been very helpful and professional throughout the whole process.

Choosing Optilase for my laser vision correction was honestly the best decision I’ve ever made! I hated wearing my glasses. Optilase gave me perfect vision, even better than when I was wearing glasses before. I was quite nervous about the procedure but as soon as i first made contact with Optilase i was at ease. Every single member of staff was friendly, helpful and professional. From my consultation to my procedure and after care I couldn’t have been happier with the process and the outcome! Cannot recommend Optilase enough, it genuinely changed my life and I would encourage anyone thinking of laser vision correction to choose Optilase!
F. S.
Everyone at Optilase were so kind and helpful; from the first consultation, to the after care process. I really can’t overstate the friendliness and professionalism everyone at Ely place exudes! I had a genuinely lovely experience! The surgery was so fast and smooth and I felt so safe in the after care process. I have no doubt I will be recommending this place to everyone considering corrective eye surgery.
R. O.
From start to finish, the staff at Optilase were absolute professionals. It was made sure that I knew exactly what the procedure entailed and everything that was involved. The tests beforehand were extremely thorough and the optometrists were very friendly. My experience of having laser eye surgery with Optilase was first class and I have recommended them to a number of friends.
d. g.
The whole process was very straight forward and easy. From the first consultation to the surgery e everyone was very friendly and explained all details pre and post op very clear. The day of the surgery from arriving to leaving took in total 80 minutes and about 10 minutes surgery time. I could see better straight away and within a few hours better than 20/20. It took a few days for the focus to adjust and muscles to build up in my eyes but that was it. I would recommend to anyone.
C. F.
I had a great experience with Optilase. From start to finish they were very accommodating and explained everything step by step. I would highly recommended laser eye surgery to anyone. It’s the little things that have the greatest impact from not having to wear glasses in the rain or just opening the washing machine and not having to worry about your glasses fogging up😂 the Benefits are endless.
A. W.
I can absolutely say this is the best decision I ever had. The eye laser surgery experience was quick, efficient and after 2 days rest I can see everything so clearly with 20/20 vision. It's like having a new set of eyes. It was remarkable! Am just purely delighted! I went for the LASIK treatment because it has good recovery times and indeed it was. Staff were amazing as well, they are making sure you are comfortable and relaxed. I would recommend this treatment to anyone who had specs their whole life to try it.
V. M.
I had a great experience with optilase from the initial consultation to the surgery to my 5day post Op check, everything was perfect. The procedure itself was far from traumatic and was a very a comfortable experience. All my questions were answered for me prior to the procedure and the staff were excellent, all so knowledgeable, kind and caring. A special shout out to my optometrist Aisling who was so patient and kind with me and answered all of my questions at both of my appointments.
B. F.
From the minute I made the phone call to book the consultation right up until my last check up I’ve never felt more relax and comfortable. The staff were very welcoming, professional and approachable. Any questions I had were answered fully and my mind was put at ease. On the day of my surgery any nerves I had were put at ease very quickly. The procedure itself was very quick and the aftercare was second to none.

(DM me for €100 off referral)
The staffs are mostly friendly and kind. 4 out of 5 stars because one staff was rude to me but it’s been sorted by optilase.
The process of the surgery is not painful. After the surgery my eyes were in so much pain for around 3 days but they are ok afterwards and the visions keep getting better slowly. I’m happy that I’ve got this done and it gives me much more confidence than before. Many of my friends are interested at it and the referral program would give us €100 off as well. It’s nice overall
P. G.
Amazing experience would 100% recommend, after years of wearing contact lenses this was the solution I was looking for. I was slightly nervous at first but the staff couldn’t have been friendlier and more helpful, they explained everything in great detail and answered any questions I had. I got the LASIK treatment and couldn’t recommend it enough, my vision was corrected and I can now see better than I ever could. If you’re thinking about it, go for it..! 3 years later my vision is still a the same as it was when I got the procedure done, Thanks guys

Choosing to have laser eye surgery with Optilase was the best decision I ever made! I had been contemplating it for many years but never ended up doing anything about it. Over the last year, especially with the pandemic, wearing glasses became more and more difficult, especially with face masks. I decided enough was enough and took the plunge and arranged a free consultation with Optilase! I was advised what treatment would be best suited to me and there was no pressure whatsoever to go ahead with anything straight away.
The surgery itself was over in a couple of minutes. 24 hours later with lots of rest and following the aftercare procedure, I had 20/20 vision!!
It really is amazing and so unbelievable, I am amazed at what I can see now and I love the freedom I have not wearing glasses anymore!
To anyone considering getting laser eye surgery, I would highly recommend Optilase! They are quick, efficient, thorough and their aftercare appointments are all included in the price! It was so easy and straightforward!
M. L.
Just over 3 months since I had Lasik done. My eyes were previously-5.25 in both eyes. I have 20:20 now and other than a bit of dry eye, no side effects. Very glad I decided to get it done. Optilase staff were lovely, helpful the whole way through and answered all my many, repeated questions thoroughly.
D. K.
In Optilase are working very professional, kind people who make you feel that you are in the good hands! Everyone who is working there starting from reception girls make you feel welcome and will explain all yours questions. I did my surgery just a month ago and my results is amazing. You can see results in the same day. I feel like a small child who get a very wanted toy and can't explain excitement in the words! Thank you all!
J. E.
Had Optilase lasik surgery 2 years ago, the process was simple. I had a few consultations, they checked my eyes were suitable and the surgery was done in very short time with a downtime after of less than a weekend. Results are amazing, well worth the price, had a test for a driving license renewal recently and I am still 20/20.
B. K.
I’m sorry I didn’t do it years ago. Pain free and my vision is now perfect. The Optilase team are absolute professionals. I was made feel very comfortable and reassured that I was in the best hands. There process meant excellent service from the outset. Can’t recommend enough.
S. F.
So glad I finally went for laser eye surgery. It’s my year anniversary since I had the procedure and delighted with the results. No need for glasses anymore. In 2020 I received 20/20 vision.
PKR was most suitable for my eyesight.The procedure was pain free but for me the recovery took longer than I had anticipated. The round of daily drops helped and I haven’t had the need for eye drops in months.
If you are reading this thinking of going for it, I suggest do! Go for it!
P. M.
I was very happy with my experience at Optilase. The staff were extremely friendly and informative. I went for the LASIK surgery and was finished the procedure within 15 minutes. I went from needing -3 prescription glasses to having perfect 20/20 vision. Also, Optilase offers a lifetime guarantee so that if your eyesight were to slightly change that they will cover the cost of doing an enhancement surgery which I haven't heard is offered at any other laser eye surgery clinic!
S. P.
The nurses and the surgeon were great. The clinic gives you plenty of appointments after the surgery and they are all incredibly prepared. I would have appreciated a more in depth preparation before the surgery since I had no idea what I was walking into. On the day the nurse asked me if I had bought prescription painkillers (which I didn’t, nobody told me) and if I had someone taking care of me for the next two days (I didn’t, nobody told me). My procedure was going to take a couple of days to heal completely, I thought I would have been fine by the evening (that’s what happened to my friends). I already shared the feedback with them, too but I get they didn’t take it seriously and didn’t really know what to do with my complain.
You can imagine how difficult it has been asking favours few hours before the surgery to my friends (which they were all brilliant) since I lived by myself.
S. P.
Excellent experience with Optilase. Would 100% recommend them to anyone thinking about getting laser eye surgery. It has made a massive difference to my everyday and sporting life. Optilase were very easy to deal with and provided excellent information about procedure and aftercare.
C. G.
Gets the job done just fine - I’ve had no issues with recovery so far. But it’s a very impersonal and “conveyor belt” type experience when you’re in there. If you’re the type of person who likes to be made feel at home and at ease and taken through it all by the same person and minded you won’t get that here! I just about got a glass of water in a plastic cup after I was done!!
P. B.
I had lasik surgery here nearly 3 years ago now. I can't recommend it highly enough. My vision now is better then when wearing glasses. While I was a little nervous and anxious, the staff are so helpful and really put me at ease. They don't speak in jargon, they talk you through every step and are always available to answer any question I had. If you're thinking about it, I'd say book a consultation and they really will allay any nerves you may have
T. R.
Great service! The staff is super friendly and very helpful with any queries before and after the surgery. All the nurses I have met to date are very professional and helpful with any issues you throw at them. The surgeon Tom is great. No issues whatsoever!
Best decision I have made so far, great clinic and I would recommend this place 100%!
E. H.
The staff in the Dublin clinic are all so lovely, really make you feel at ease while you’re waiting! I would highly recommend attending the Dublin clinic if you’re getting your laser eye surgery with optilase.
A. M.
Very happy with my experience at Optilase. The staff were kind and courteous, the testing and scanning was very professional and all my questions were answered clearly. My appointments were clearly laid out in My aftercare plan. Very happy with my improved vision most of all!
D. B.
I recently had laser eye surgery after years of wearing glasses. From start to finish, the staff in Optilase where top class.
I had my surgery within 3 weeks of my consultation and even got my surgery on a Saturday so I didn't need to take time off work.
The surgery was pain free and I was done within 10 minutes.
I would highly recommend Optilase, it has been life changing for me.
N. C.
Very happy with my surgery. Everyone from start to finish made me feel so at ease. I was thinking about it for years, and about 5 days after my initial consultation I could see! All those years of waiting seem silly now. If you're thinking about laser, definitely pick optilase. I couldn't recommend them more! I wish I had done it sooner!
A. M.
After struggling with my long distance sight I looked into correcting my vision with Optilase. I found them very professional and thorough when it came to the pre checks. The laser treatment itself was explained step by step by the staff that morning and each eye took 10 painless seconds. The after care was second to none, the staff were extremely supportive over the phone and on actual check ups. Its three years since I got my laser, it's the best money spent. I only regret not getting it done sooner. I can't reccomend Optilase enough.
T. K.
Recently had my eye surgery done with Optilase from start to finish the service was impeccable the staff are friendly and efficient and the surgery team made sure i understood all my choices before going ahead. The staff made the whole process so easy and comfortable highly recommend !
j. r.
Laser eye surgery was something I have thought about for years but was so worried it would be painful and was overall just very apprehensive - without doubt it is the best decision I’ve ever made! Niamh the Nurse was just incredible - so reassuring and kind and really helped to mellow me out pre-op, Tom my surgeon was outstanding I did not feel a thing and I had crystal clear vision as soon as I woke up the next day! The team are all so helpful especially at all the follow up appointments - I couldn’t recommend Optilase enough they are the best!
D. M.
I had laser eye surgery just a few weeks before my wedding. The staff were amazing and the procedure was over before I knew it. I wasn't oversold anything and paid the advertised price, less actually after VHI discounts etc. I was fully healed up in time for wedding pictures I'd definitely recommend this treatment and clinic in particular to anybody thinking about getting it done. I only wish I'd done it sooner.
L. S.
I can honestly say my life has changed since getting my vision corrected with Optilase. I had a strong prescription and astigmatism. My eyes would no longer accept contacts without agitation. I was stuck with my glasses all the time and I hated it. The treatment was straightforward and all the staff were lovely. I am doing things with so much more confidence now like surfing and running. I would never go back to specs.
B. G.
I had a really easy experience which is very comforting. The consultation was free and within an hour I was able to book my surgery. Optilase has very good customer care team that pay close attention to detail.. the surgery itself was actually surprisingly quick and painless.. I have had dental appointments that were more uncomfortable! Then I could see with better than 20/20 vision.. as someone who had a very strong glasses prescription (-6 in both eyes) this surgery was transformative to my life.. I would easily and happily recommend anyone for lasik wavefront surgery! My sister also received a gift of €100 for recommending me to the clinic!
G. G.
I had surgery one month ago and it was overall a good experience. The procedure was very fast and painless. My vision was very clear the day after surgery. I couldn’t believe it! However, I found it very hard dealing with optilase’ s changing schedules. My consultations were postponed several times and so were the after surgery check ups.
A. K.
My treatment at Optilase went brilliantly and I cannot recommend them enough. The quality of the care before, during and after the surgery is second to none and I am thrilled with the results from the surgery.
K.
Everyone working here is so kind and answers all questions no matter how silly they sound.
When I was up in Dublin for the day of the surgery I was very nervous, but the Nurses all calmed my nerves talking to me through the process, and after care. (Dr. Nafa let me bring a teddy into the surgery as long as I didn't sue if it fainted off the table 😂).
While it is blurry the first day, sight was practically immediate!!! It's amazing being able to see more than 3 feet in front of me without glasses or contacts. No shame, I cried I could see when I got home 🙈
Absolute new lease of life, I'm so thankful! 😄💐🎉

Fantastic service from the initial call & consultation right through to my surgery. Every question I had was answered clearly which made feel at ease on the day. The surgery itself was efficient and the after care has been second to none, I so happy with the result. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend both Opilase and laser surgery in general for anyone thinking of getting having it done
L. G.
Optilase were very welcoming and put my mind at ease over laser eye surgery. I am 1 week post op and have amazing vision. Everyone was very polite and friendly repeating for me several times the procedure and post op care. A great service !
K. O.
I had the best experience at Optilase. Linda was so helpful in explaining everything to me. They were so thorough and checked my eyes for dry eyes frequently before my surgery. The receptionists and nurses couldn’t have been nicer and made me feel so at ease. I can’t believe my vision now without my glasses. I still am in shock at how amazing my eyesight is!
E. B.
The service at Optilase was fantastic! All staff were so pleasant and friendly to deal with and the whole process was so quick. I got fantastic results from my procedure and it’s made such a difference to my day to day life. Have recommended to lots of friends.
E. J.
I recently had laser eye surgery with Optilase in Dublin and I can honestly say that it was a great decision. I used to wear a mixture of contacts and glasses, and can't believe the freedom that I now have. My eye sight is perfect. Everyone in Optilase was so helpful, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend laser eye surgery with Optilase.
K. C.
I Had my laser eye surgery done in the Dublin Clinic just a little over a week ago. The process from the very beginning was nothing short of amazing! The staff on the reception always greeted you with a smile and made you feel so at ease with everything! I had my consultation with Claire, she was amazing! She made me feel so comfortable throughout the process of seeing if I was eligible for the procedure and made sure all my questions were answered fully! On the day the of the procedure I had Victoria by my side the whole time to make sure I was relaxed and at ease before my surgery, Which I wouldn't of been able to do without, even held my hand throughout the procedure which was really comforting! The surgeon on the day was Alex he was super friendly and helpful with any last minute questions I might have , the staff in the theatre were amazing too as they make sure to let you know what is going on every step of the way so you're never caught off guard by anything! Victoria went through my after care with me and explained in great detail everything I needed to know! By the time it came to my 24 hour check up my vision was already 20:20! I had my checkup with Kevin who was so nice and friendly. As someone who has been wearing glasses for almost 10 years I couldn't recommend this enough! no more steamed up glasses for me!
M. C.
I had a great experience getting LASIK eye surgery at Optilase. The staff were very efficient and reassuring and I felt very confident being in their hands. I could see perfectly the day after surgery which was amazing. I’m absolutely delighted with the surgery and can’t recommend Optilase enough.
j.
I would highly recommend optilase clinic for anyone looking to get laser eye surgery. I got mine done nearly 3 years ago and have to say it's the best thing iv ever done. Completely pain free and had better than 20 /20 vision at my eye test the very next day 😁. X
B. D.
From first consult to last check up optilase we’re top class. All my questions and concerns were answered and alleviated completely. The procedure was carefully explained and the staff were very reassuring. Before this I wore contact lenses every day and regularly suffered from sore and irritated eyes. Since then I have been free from pain and free from the day to day hassle of dealing with contact lenses. Would recommend to anyone as this procedure has changed my life.
L. S.
The initial assessment and surgery were fine but the aftercare has been pretty much non existent. I went back for the contact lense bandages to be removed on day 5, then had a 6 week check up. I was due a call (no physical appointment due to Covid) at three months and I think again at 6 months but still have yet to receive one, despite being 11 months post op. I also referred someone for laser eye surgery that took place 3 months ago and have not received my referral charge.
L. K.
Very good experience. I had to have eye surgery in the Eye and Ear and following this I had my date for laser surgery. I was scrubbed up for surgery but the Consultant post-poned as he wanted to check my eyes before the surgery. I was extremely reassured by this as I was nervous that I hadn't been checked up by the Eye and Ear. Had my surgery last Monday and I've never been happier.
All staff were lovely and extremely helpful, from the receptionists, nurses and opthoms. I can't recommend Optilase enough.
A. L.
Had been thinking about laser surgery for years but thanks to optilase finance option it became a reality. I am based in Galway and consultation was made easy for me timewise around my lunch hour and was thorough, I felt at ease I was making right choice. One of my eyes did have slight issue which would've seen surgery cancelled if it hadn't cleared up beforehand but was given instructions and eyedrops and was checked again afew days prior. Thank god all good but I felt I would not have been sent if it wasn't rectified which shows they don't just say ya ur grand and take ur money! On day of surgery went smooth and felt relaxed. My surgeon was lovely man explained everything in detail and what to expect afterwards. I was given more than enough drops and exactly what way to use them including ones if I needed for bad pain but thankfully didn't need. Was able to go back to work after a week but did take afew wks/mths before final results. All in all great experience and its amazing to wake up in morning and be able to see straight away without poking my eyes with contacts!! No problem recommending Optilase to anyone.
d. o. r.
Optilase cancelled my eye surgery a couple of hours before it was to take place . Had travelled up to Dublin with Hotels booked and days taken off work for it . Didn't like the fact they will charge you a penalty if you cancel surgery within 3 days of it but Optilase can cancel anytime ,even on day of surgery with no penalty on them.Ended up using Optilase in Cork after where the staff were excellent.
N. M.
Highly recommend Optilase Dublin. All staff were very friendly, helpful and professional from start to finish. Niamh the nurse stood out for me..she totally put me at ease as naturally I was a little nervous..I had the LASIK procedure and my only regret is not getting it done sooner! Aftercare is very thorough also. My vision was 20:20 the next day at my checkup! Very happy customer

I had LASIK eye surgery back on Oct 2019. My eyesight was -4.5 in one eye and -5 in the other (so pretty badly short sighted!) I wore contacts religiously as I hated glasses and have done since I started wearing them when I was 10years old. I went for a consultation in Aug 2019 for the Lasec procedure but due to Roscea the surgeon advised that it would be more appropriate for the LASIK to avoid complications in later life. Everything was explained and discussed at length keeping me informed of how my surgery would progress. My recovery was quick (painful initially on the first day as I had been informed) but after that the grittiness went away and my vision was crystal clear. I don’t miss putting in my contacts every morning and just wish I was braver and had the surgery carried out many years before! Well worth the money!!
S. C.
Best decision I ever made. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. From the moment I stepped through the door I felt well cared for. The staff were kind and compassionate and post surgery (covid) they walked me to my partner outside. I knew what was happening every step of the way so nothing was a surprise. Fantastic staff. Fantastic facility. Couldn't recommend more
N. P.
The initial consultation is very explanatory and professional, and the entire LASIK procedure was very quick, painless and well done. Recommended for sure, adding to an excellent post-op follow up
I. L.
I would highly recommend Optilase Dublin clinic! Everyone was so helpful and nice, starting from reception and ending with surgeon and nurses. The whole procedure and aftercare was explained to me in great detail and I was put at ease right before the surgery too. The surgery itself lasted for less than 10 minutes, the surgeon and his team were absolute professionals. Thanks to everyone involved! ❤
A. M.
Overall a brilliant experience and would recommend to anyone who is thinking about laser eye surgery. Everyone in the clinic is really friendly making me feel at ease and not at all nervous - receptionists, nurses, technician, surgeon - a big shout out to all of them! The surgery itself was a breeze and my post-op guidance made sure that I was well equiped to deal with the recovery process. I had PRK and was offered an earlier appointment when a cancellation came up 🎉🎉🎉
B. G. O.

So feel free to email me or Facebook me for further info on €100 off!

Professional, speedy, precise.. I couldn’t have asked for a more smooth experience, everything down to the person at reception was excellent.. they made you feel welcome. I don’t have one bad thing to say about my experience at optilase.. if you want laser eye surgery I suggest this is the place you head too !!
M. G.
Got my lazer eye surgery done in ely place dublin. Top class professional experience! Both eyes was completed in 15 minutes . I had perfect vision the next day and no issues. Followup care was brilliant and all questions answered. I was well informed, made feel very comfortable. Thanks so much!
C. M.
I had a very good experience at optilase, the team has been very professional and helping in any regard. I had an eye laser surgery in 2018 with a phenomal success, not only was my sight back from when I was young, it even improved to what it's been before!
And it still is, no loss or any other complications afterwards until now. I do not regret taking the risk, so I highly recommend doing it!
K. C.
Ive just finished my post surgery follow up and have been told my vision is better than 20/20. I had the Lasik surgery done 2 days ago and it was absolutely fine. My recovery has been very smooth so far and I've been using drops as instructed. There was a tiny bit of pain an hour after the surgery but painkillers helped. Woke up the day after and didn't have to reach for glasses for the first time in about 13 years. I will be trying to convince everyone to get it done now. Like everyone else says, I wish I got it done sooner.
D. G. S.
I had my laser eye surgery here in 2018
My vision is now at 30/30 level. I could not be happier with the results. Also the after care was top level stuff. I always recommend people to come here because my experience was so good.

Great service and can't recommend it enough! The surgery itself was painless and the discomfort only lasted a few hours afterwards. On my post op check up the next day I had better than 20:20 vision. The recovery was quick and easy to manage. The staff were helpful throughout and I am delighted to have made the decision to get the surgery.
I got the Lasik surgery for your reference.

My experience with Optilase was nothing but professional. From the initial phone call and consultation I knew I was in good hands , I have never been able to see as clear as I can now with 20:20 vision. On the day of the surgery it went so smooth and everything was explained so well throughout . I had so many follow up check ups and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is sick of wearing contacts or glasses. The staff were so helpful from the get go. I tell all my friends it’s one of the best decisions I have made.

I am one week into life with my "new" eyes and it feels amazing. Laser surgery is always something I wanted to do and just didn't realise how easy it would be. From the moment I arranged the free consultation it was hassle free right down to every detail and even during Covid restrictions. The procedure was so much easier than I expected and after a few hours sleep I was feeling great and able to see. The next morning however was the icing on the cake and at my follow up appointment they confirmed I had better than 20/20 vision. A dream come through 🥰

Would highly recommend Optilase for Lasik laser eye surgery. From the 1st consultation to my 1 mouth Post op check up, all the staff from the ladies in reception to the surgeon and the team, all were fantastic and make you feel at ease. Couldn't believe at how quick the procedure takes, only 15 mins and your done!! Only regret is not getting it done sooner!!!!!
Thank you to all the team
P.s If any one wants to use me as a refer a friend to get €100 off please feel free to contact me 🤩🤩🤩

I couldn't be more pleased! Dr. Tom Materman and all who work with him were wonderful and so kind. I was about -4.00 in each eye, couldn't do anything without my glasses. Lasik was one of the best things I couldn't done. I feel like I am seeing in HD. My vision is amazing! I really appreciate the time spent explaining the procedure and ensuring that everything went smoothly. The surgery was painless. I highly recommended Optilise Clinic, Dr Materman and his wonderful staff. Thank you all!!!!!!!!
S. S.
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Less than two weeks in and my eyes are healed with 20:20 vision. Staff are very helpful with top class treatment giving at all times. Would highly recommend

I first went to Optilase after 15+ years of wearing contacts and glasses. I wanted to be able to travel and not worry about the hygiene of using lenses and not having to wear glasses, especially when I didn't have prescription sunglasses. They told me I had a small dry patch in one eye, which I didn't know about, but they sent me home with drops and told me to come back in 2 weeks for the assessment again, and I was booked in for the surgery for the week following that. Everything was perfect and my surgery would be the next week. The surgery was totally painless, and comfortable throughout. The patient care guys were fantastic, so helpful and reassuring as were the guys in the laser suite who talked to me throughout and gave me the countdown on each eye (literally seconds is all it took!). The consultant had impeccable work and was so fast. In all 3 visits, I didn't meet the same optician or laser technician, this was totally reassuring because as a skeptic, I knew that they couldn't all miss something 😂
I would wholeheartedly recommend using Optilase, I was 100% reassured and constantly felt like I was in good hands, the whole way! I'm not very brave and I am very skeptical but I didn't feel the need to question anything as everything was so well explained each time. Definitely worth the investment, less than 24 hours later and my sight is perfect! My only regret was not doing it sooner! Thanks to all of the staff too! 10/10!
M. B.
From start to finish, my experience at Optlilase Dublin has been excellent! From the initial booking to the LASIK procedure itself, all has been handled fantastically. The procedure was pain free and very quick. All of the team were very friendly and done their best to put you at ease. I would certainly recommend the procedure itself as it is somewhat life changing. As someone who has been wearing contact lenses daily for the last 12 years, I am only sorry I didn’t get this done sooner! 5 stars from me and can say it was certainly worth the money!
S. D. W.
It’s cliche but it has been life changing. The most professional staff I’ve ever witnessed. From reception to the surgeons and the rest of the staff. Optilase is the best laser eye surgeons in the country.
J. M.
I went to Optilase two weeks ago for my procedure, and the results have been amazing already. I only wish I had gotten this done sooner. Unbelievable feeling to not need glasses or contact lenses again.
G. S.
I was very nervious the day of my surgery but the staff was very helpful and friendly. Surgery did take less than 15 minutes and the following day my vision was 20/20. I am so happy with the results and highly recommend it.
A. V.
The staff are very kind and always explain everything you need to know. The services they offer are top notch, the surgery itself was quick and easy, but the services pre/post surgery are what make the difference. Thanks Optilase.
G. P.
Genuinely life changing, laser surgery improved my vision much more than any contact lenses or Glasses. It also feels so good to not have to reach for glasses in morning.
H. O.
I found Optilase difficult to deal with at times. The surgery element of my experience with them was very professional however my appointments were constantly being cancelled and rescheduled with short notice despite having booked far in advance. I found them difficult to rely on. The surgery itself was quick and painless but the organisation of the calendar and appointments could be massively improved.
g. m.
Pre-op and day of op care was good. Follow up was really poor as no contact from the clinic with regards progress or 1 year appointment (I had to call the clinic after 15 months to arrange this). I also referred a friend for surgery which they had months ago and still waiting on my €100 referral reward to be sent to me.
K.
Had the most positive experience with Optilase🙌 They made me feel so comfortable every step of the way and explained the whole process so clearly. Would 100% recommend them to anyone who is interested in laser eye surgery, it changed my life ❤️
D. F.
I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone looking for freedom from glasses and contacts. The staff are really professional and the before and after care is second to none. I have already recommended them to several friends and family
P. H.
I got LASIK almost two weeks ago and I would recommend it to anyone on the fence! It has been life-changing. The staff is super friendly and informative and the entire experience felt easy and quick. I felt comfortable the entire time and I could not have been looked after better. If you’re thinking of getting laser eye surgery I would recommend Optilase to everyone!
D. G.
Optilase is the best place if you wanna get laser eye surgery done. I was unsure when i thought of getting laser eye surgery but then i booked free consultation with optilase in which they answered all my queries/ whatever i needed to know which made gave e confidence to go for it. Now, it's almost a month since i have got my surgery done and i can see everything - will recommend optilase if you want to get laser eye surgery.
R. B.
Decided to do this in 2021 as was sick of glasses and contacts.
Staff were very friendly bar one which is now gone.
Surgeon was narky but to the point.
Surgery was painless.
Follow up Appointments are great and put u at ease if everything doesn’t seem right. Linda especially put my worries at bay!
C. N.
Had a great experience overall at optilase during my initial consultation and the surgery itself. All of the healthcare staff I interacted with were lovely and helpful. Did end up having to have PRK instead of LASEK and wasn't prepared for this on the day due to a mix up in communication from the optometrist but other than that everything went well. Would recommend.
A. D.
This was a life-changing procedure for me and I would recommend it to anyone. It was fast, painless and the aftercare was great. I've never looked back and am grateful everyday for my eyes working as they do now!
K. J. A.
Brilliant experience from the consultation process to post surgery. I had my laser eye surgery just a week ago and I am thrilled with the results! I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 10 and its just lovely to now have the freedom to just wake up and see clearly ☺️ Thanks to everyone at Optilase Ely St. Would highly recommend getting it done 🤩
A. M.
I normally hate reviews that sound too good to be true but I genuinely couldn’t be happier with my experience with Dublin Optilase. The receptionist was super friendly and helpful in finding a date that suited, the optometrist was incredibly thorough and informative and was able to answer all the questions I had about any potential risks or side effects. On the day of the LASIK surgery itself I felt like I met so many different people and genuinely each one was really warm and friendly. One person I remember by name was called Paula (I think) I remember being surprised to hear she was new because she had been so friendly and a really calming presence as she brought me to the different areas and talked me through my eye drops. She was really reassuring. Everyone I’ve seen since for my follow up appointments have been just as warm and professional. If you’re considering laser eye surgery I’d definitely recommend visiting Optilase for one of the free consultations and see how you’re feeling. Coming out with 20/20 vision, I’m delighted.
D. N. A.
Had a lovely experience in November 2019. Great team at optilase and amazing service provided. I'm so glad I made the decision to have laser eye surgery and have never looked back
A. K.
My experience with Optilase Eye Surgery was nothing short of fantastic. The nurses and staff made me feel very calm about surgery. The surgery itself was super quick. Getting back my sight was surreal. Would highly recommend Optilase. Very professional and friendly team.
J. K.
I attended Optilase clinic on 23rd of June 2021.
Being a health care professional I was criticised by my family and few friends for choosing it over others.
But throughout pre Laser consultations I really found the staff cooperative and helpful.
Story of the Day:
I met George Alex and was all ready for LASIK ( quick recovery one) when he did few scans and explained that probably LASEK ( the one with longer recovery) would be more suitable for person like me as my corneal thickness is on lower side.
It was a real shock as sorting out work days off/child care is an issue in such acute situations. But trusting the staff I went through the procedure and yes It went well.
Sore for 4 days, was out on Day 5. Vision nearly normal on Day 7 and back to work after follow up assessment on Day 7.
Now it’s nearly 6 weeks post LASEK and every single day is a blessing for not using sunglasses.
Post op care was excellent as the staff explained what to expect and how to deal with it along with leaflets and eye drops.
Regarding the little hassle on the day, staff was really sympathetic and I would highly recommend it to all those who want to say goodbye to glasses.
Many thanks Optilase .

I am on my second day of recovery from laser eye surgery, my sight the clearest it’s ever been and I am not even at the finish line. The only negative thing I can say is that I wish I had of done it sooner! The service the team at Optilase provide is beyond excellent, the staff are so attentive and reassuring and the procedure was not one bit painful or uncomfortable and was over within minutes. I would highly recommend Optilase and to anyone considering the procedure, take the next step and go for it, you won’t look back!
C. P.
Had a great experience with the optilase team. They explained the procedure and any worries i had were quickly put to bed. Overall the operation took 40mins. Im delighted with the outcome and would recomend it to anyone.

I got my laser vision correction done in January 2021. I've worn glasses for 16 years and I couldn't see without my glasses, my prescription was -7.5!
I was told by opticians over the years due to astigmatism I wouldn't be ever eligible. I decided to go to the free consultation with Optilase and to my surprise, they were more than happy to do it!
I got the absolute best care, from the girls on reception all the way to my actual surgeon, everyone was so kind and understanding and explained everything in such detail that I wasn't worried about getting it done.
It's been about 5 months now since it was done and I've never looked back. My vision is clear for possibly the first time in my life, I'm free of my glasses (which has been a godsend with masks because they were forever fogging up) and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone! It's also great to know that youre never "discharged" from Optilase, if you ever have any issues, they're only a phone call away. If you've ever thought about getting it done, go for the free consultation and go from there, you won't regret it!
S. B.
Everything about my experience with Optilase was quick, easy and effort free on my side. I had my consultation, booked my surgery that day and had it within a month - everything was calm and I was made to feel like I was in safe hands. Without a doubt has changed my life completely - before hand I had pretty terrible sight and wore glasses 24/7 I work with children in residential care and my glasses would be grabbed/broken/knocked off my head on a daily basis at work I no longer have that stress thanks too Optilase
M.
I had a wonderful experience with Optilase all round, my only advice is to speak with your surgeon during surgery and let them know if you can't focus during it, I couldn't which meant I had to be switched from LASIK to LASEK mid surgery. Same result longer recovery. Staff were all excellent
N. R.
Been almost 2 years since I had my lasik surgery and my only regret was not doing it sooner. Now, I have perfect 20/20 vision in both eyes. I can't believe how much lasik changed my life! I don't miss the days of using contact lenses and glasses. The staff were extremely professional and worked to the highest standards with the latest technology. The procedure itself, while uncomfortable, was total pain free. I was put at ease by the kind staff when having the procedure done. I fully recommend anyone wearing glasses or contacts to give Optilase try and arrange a consultation. Thank you to everyone at Optilase.
M. J.
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful from the moment I walked in the door. The procedure itself was quick and painless, maybe 10 minutes in the theatre. The surgeon walked me through everything I needed to know prior to going in and checked up on me after. The aftercare provided on the day by Nora and the team was second to none for me, having travelled from Galway they made sure I was well looked after. Most importantly, the next day after some rest I could see crystal clear. I would definitely recommend Optilase.
E. S.
The whole team at Optilase have been very professional and approachable, even when calling with queries over the phone. I was delighted with my treatment and the follow up I am receiving so far (a week later), I would recommend it to anyone who is fed up of wearing glasses like I was!
S. H.
I had an amazing experience with getting laser eye surgery. Optilase were so professional the whole time and I have already recommended to a number of friends.
V. S.
I got 15k inheritance and laser surgery was the only thing well worth spent, spent 3.5k and everyone says I am the one with 'the eyes' so I have to tell my brother's what exercises are on the workout board like a mile away. I hope I still have life correction though if they deteriorate again, whick they haven't in 3 years.
C. O.
Absolutely delighted with the laser eye surgery I had done this day last week in the Dublin clinic. The staff were excellent and explained exactly what was going to happen and the LASIK surgery was done in 20 minutes. I can’t believe how sharp my vision is now. Highly recommend, I won’t ever “look back”!! My consultation and follow up appointments have been in the Galway Clinic and I’m just as impressed with the service there. Thanks Optilase!
S. O.
I couldn’t recommend Optilase more. From the very first consultation, to the day of the procedure and every follow up visit afterwards, the staff at Optilase were friendly, professional and reassuring. The only regret I have is not reaching out sooner. Thank you all again!
J. P.
Excellent service from start to finish. I would highly recommend Optilase, there was no question too big or small, they're all so friendly, helpful and reassuring. The day of the surgery I was a bit nervous but there was no need to be. It's super quick and straight forward. I should've done it sooner. The follow up appointments were great too, answered all my questions and made sure everything was going well.
C. E.
The Staff are so friendly and really put you at ease before the surgery. From the staff on reception all the way to surgery everyone was so nice! Thanks so much for a great experience I couldnt believe how quick it was and the results are instant I would 100%recommend optilase
P. J.
I had considered having laser eye surgery on several occasions before I contacted Optilase but had never followed through because I was concerned about the price and what was involved, however I am so pleased that I did. The consultation was very thorough and reassuring. Everything was covered and all my concerns and questions were addressed. All my options were presented to me and I was given recommendations on which treatment would best suit me. The price plans were reasonable and could even be spread out over multiple payments if needs be, plus quite a chunk can be claimed back in tax which was a nice boost to ease the new year doldrums. The day of the surgery was great. I'm not generally a nervous person anyway but the secretaries and nurses were very reassuring. The procedure is ridiculously quick and was completed very professionally by all involved. The next couple of days and weeks are fairly horrible. I sat for the remainder of the day in a dark room doing nothing but sleeping and listening to podcasts but I was almost fully recovered and completely able to see by the following evening. Taking drops for the next two weeks is a bit of a pain but a short term inconvenience. I'm now eight months on, my vision is perfect and I still marvel at what I can see that I never used to be able to, even with glasses. The follow up care was great. Even with covid and travel restrictions I still had several follow up appointments and calls to make sure everything was okay. Overall I couldn't recommend Optilase enough and I don't know why I ever waited so long to go through with it. Do it!
A. L.
Excellent care from the very first consultation, through the procedure itself and all the follow up care. All the staff are lovely and so willing to help and answer questions. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Optilase for lasek / PRK!
m. s.
Had PRK/lasek two years ago. Eyes still perfect. Cannot recommend optilase enough. I was nervous before but the staff were excellent even post procedure. If you’re even considering it schedule a consultation with them. Changed my life. Annoyed i didn’t have it down when I was younger
J. H.
I had laser surgery done the end of 2020, after being fed up by my glasses steaming up. Optilase was well organised, explained the procedure very well and made me feel comfortable all the way through the process. The aftercare was also well explained. I would explain my surgery as the best money spend in the last year and do it again.
G. N.
I got Lasik at Optilase Dublin last week and everything went by so quick. The ladies in the surgery room were so sweet and friendly and definitely eased my worries. The surgery itself is not painful just a bit uncomfortable because they will be prodding at your eyes. I was able to see as soon as the surgery was over and felt amazing for about 15 minutes after leaving the clinic. After the numbing wore off, my eyes felt very stingy and it was difficult to keep them open but once I got on to my train home, I kept my eyes closed the entire way and I was fine once I got back. The one negative would be that my eyes have been bloodshot for a few days but that’s only temporary. My vision is now better than 20/20 and I’m looking forward to wearing face masks without any hassle! 😷
T. Q.
I recently under went my Lasik eye surgery with Optilase. The staff were super efficient, friendly and totally put me at ease prior to surgery. They explained the procedure thoroughly and answered any questions in great detail. The post surgery checks up and aftercare were great.
M. K.
From the moment I walked in the door, everyone was super welcoming and friendly. The process was quick and straight forward and it was well explained. The aftercare was thoroughly explained. Its changed my life and I’m delighted I took the leap and did it. Would highly recommend Optilase
F. G.
I am absolutely thrilled with my experience with Optilase. To go from a -5.25 prescription to 20/20 vision in 24 hours after LASIK treatment is a whole new level of excitement! From start to finish the Optilase Team we’re amazing. Extremely professional and friendly. They made me feel so comfortable the whole way through my treatment and even afterwards when I felt overwhelmed at the fact I could see glasses free they helped to calm me down and waited with me until my lift arrived. An unbelievable experience all round, I highly recommend Optilase 👏🏼 A year on and I sometimes still can't believe I no longer wear glasses!!
K. M.
The whole experience with optilase was seemless, the price was the best I had been given from multiple laser eye surgery clinics, the staff were all so friendly - nurses, optometrists, reception and laser techs were all so good to me. My vision is better then I could've ever expected and the after care was brilliant, would highly recommend optilase
R. D.
Felt very comfortable and safe getting my lasik here. It's more than a year since I got laser eye surgery here and it's made my life a lot easier. Thanks so much.
A. D.
Life changing - if you’re thinking about it, just do it! Best decision I ever made! Amazing support before and after surgery with continuous checkups and aftercare! Super quick recovery time!
c. d.
Fantastic experience from my first consultation to my last check up. Lovely staff, so friendly and really helpful in explaining what’s happening. Couldn’t recommend Optilase anymore!
Е. Л.
I made a laser vision correction in this clinic about 1 months ago. The operation went well, the staff was caring.
A month after the operation I was prescribed new eye drops however after couple of days of using them I started to have an allergic reaction to them, eyes were itching, red and felt painful. I called the clinic and receptionist told me that one of their practitioners will contact me. No call after two days of waiting. Called again however same answered followed: "the doctor will call in an hour" . No one called. I think this is not professional and irresponsible attitude towards the client with an allergic reaction to something that they prescribed.
It seems that after receiving a full payment for the operation clinic lose interest in you and your vision.
R. 0. S.
Just after my laser procedure in the Cork branch and the care throughout the process is fantastic. I have gained back my 20/20 vision and I am thrilled with the outcome. For those who want to get it done, I would highly recommend it. The procedure itself is painless and recovery straight after feels more like having irritable and discomfort in the eyes than pain. This for me all eased off within the first couple of yours!
Thanks again Optilase!
D. B.
Really great experience in Optilase. From the consultation to the treatment to the after care, it could not have gone better. I recommend everyone thinking about it to just go ahead and do it
T. O.
From the first consultation, to the surgery itself, to my firstly aftercare checkup I have had a great experience with Optilase. All staff are warm, welcoming & helpful. Even in these strange times, they take all safety precautions without making the experience feel distant & cold. Thinking of someone go at your eyes is uncomfortable and they understand that.
I am now little over a year post op. Had my annual check up and can confirm I'm getting better than 20/20 vision. Have also referred about 5/6 people so far and no regrets from myself nor them 😊.
I 100% recommend and if I HAD to do it again later down the line - I wouldn't hesitate. The difference in my quality of life. I sometimes even forget I used to wear glasses.
V. M.
I had Laser eye surgery with Optilaise last month. They provided a top class service from start to finish, from the first consultation to the surgery day itself, through to the final check up, the staff couldn’t have been nicer. They were very professional and friendly and I felt very reassured. Recovery was quick and my vision is now better than 20/20, I’m delighted with the result! I’d highly recommended Optilaise to anyone, I wish I’d had it done years ago!
A. A.
Best decision I took in a long while. It's been a month since I've had the surgery and I only have great things to say. The staff was great and highly professional. There were no roadblocks in the entire process from first assessment through to the aftercare. I will recommend Optilase to anyone that is still wearing glasses.
C. W.
I had a great experience with Optilase Dublin during the whole process from the initial consultation to all the follow up appointments. They were always willing to answer any question I had and were very helpful throughout. The care nurse was so lovely and she really helped me relax before the surgery! Thanks again for everything 😁
S. O.
Fantastic experience. All staff extremely efficient and friendly before, during and after my procedure. Excellent service, professional staff who were well informed. I was made very welcome, put at ease. I highly recommend Optilase.
I had PRK IDesign surgery 3 weeks ago. Had the PRK done on both eyes, oh my lord what a success no need for glasses now. I was a little worried about the procedure but shouldn't have been. Whilst the surgery was super unpleasant, it really only lasted less than 10 minutes and everyone was so calming and reassuring.
Team were helpful - although was uncomfortable for 1st 4 days was worth it. The blurriness/dryness every so often is expected as they told me could happen but drops helps. My vision is now better than 2020 - no more scrambling around in the morning for lenses or worrying about staying over somewhere without planning!
Fantastic care was given to me and everything explained from when I entered Optilase to enquire about it up to when I left the premises after the procedure was done. Well done and thank you to everyone involved.
L. O. S.
I had a great experience. I had a small complication 9 months after and I was given an appointment straight away to get it checked and an extra check up appointment a month after with no extra charge to ensure my eyes were 100% again. Optilase ensure that they provide a great service and will do everything they can to give you a pleasant experience.
C. C.
I had Lasik laser eye surgery done in December. The experience with Optilase was amazing. From the first consultation to the aftercare they really offer an excellent service. All of the staff are such a pleasure to deal with. So friendly and professional. They made me feel so at ease the day of my surgery and explained everything in great detail. The surgery was so quick and pain free. The recovery time was less than 24 hours. The results are incredible, I cannot believe how good my eyesight is, getting laser eye surgery with Optilase is the best decision I have ever made.
J. R.
Optilase was the best investment I have ever made. I was spending 500 euros on glasses and sunglasses every year. The staff put me at ease and it was the quickest treatment ever. Recovery time was very quick and if I had am concerns I could ring in to get advise. I would strongly recommend optilase to anyone.
B. E.
Top class service. Very professional and friendly. Would highly recommend Optilase.
I had Lasik surgery and was back driving within 24 hours and back training (non contact) within 2 weeks. Wish I had done it sooner
B. O. D.
I had my first consultation with Dan O Brien in October 2020, and I had PRK surgery in February. Dan and the team were so helpful and made me feel so at ease as I was quite nervous for the procedure but he answered any questions or worries I had. The after care is amazing too..I still have follow up appointments 7/8 months later! I would definitely recommend Optilase, they were so professional from the beginning.
R. N.
My experience with Optilase was fantastic. From my first appointment to see if I could receive laser eye surgery to my post surgery appointment, everyone I met was extremely friendly and helpful. It has been almost two years now and my eyesight is perfect. I would recommend laser eye surgery at Optilase to anyone considering it! The surgery itself is a strange experience however it was 100% painless and is over in a flash. Worth every penny 😊
e. o.
The staff were so friendly and professional, and the procedure itself was so quick. I highly recommend Optilase, laser eye surgery has been life changing for me.
L. O.
Provided loads of information and did thorough checks before the surgery. The surgery itself was so quick, and all the staff made me feel very comfortable and safe throughout. The follow up care was excellent, and the recovery was quick and relatively easy. Having the surgery is truly life changing and I’m so happy I had it done! Would highly recommend having laser eye surgery done with Optilase!
T. B.
Went from 5.2 in one eye and 5.6 in the other to 20/20 vision with no complaints. Picked Optilase over another firm as there were no pushy sales tactics with them and they explained everything way better.
J. D.
The staff were very friendly. From front of house to the people in the back very easy to talk to. Made it very clear what was going to happening before during and after the surgery. Any questions I had were answered expertly. After care was top notch also.
G. K.
I have had such a positive experience getting laser eye surgery with optilase. I am now 3 weeks post-op and I haven't stopped recommending it to everyone!
The staff were extremely friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The reception staff were very accommodating when I had to change my appointment time and the nurses were very thorough with explaining my after care.
The operation itself was pain-free and seamless. In less than five minutes I was completely done.
Couldn't recommend optilase highly enough and I'm so delighted with my new found freedom now that I am glasses & contact lenses free!
A. M.
Couldn't rate optilase highly enough - from the very first consultation right to the last check up appointment after surgery they were so pleasant to deal with and so accommodating. The optometrists, surgeon, nurses were all so helpful and so eager to make me feel at ease and comfortable before, during and after the surgery. I would recommend Optilase ten times over (and already have to two of my friends) because of how happy I was with their service from start to finish. I know even more than a year after my surgery that I could go back to Optilase with any questions or concerns I had right away. Thank you so much for looking after me so well and for giving me 30:20 vision 🥳
C. P.
After many years of being on the fence I booked a consultation with Optilase back in January. I was happy with all the information & had my LASIK eye surgery done last week. I couldn’t be more happy with the results as I now have 20/20 vision after having terrible vision since I was a child. All the staff were extremely helpful & calming on the day. The aftercare has been fantastic so far with regular checkups & I know that I can ring up and get help very easily as they have great customer service. I couldn’t recommend enough !!
c. o.
I really can’t recommend the team at Optilase enough. From my first consultation with Dan who explained everything to me in great detail, I knew exactly what to expect and how the procedure would work and also the aftercare. When I went in for the Lasik treatment I was put at ease straight away by Eddie and everyone there. You really can’t lack confidence in Optilase when they are so passionate about what they do and speaking to Victoria before I went into surgery did just that. The procedure took no longer then 10 minutes and was pain free. I walked out of there with an immediate change to my eyesight although it was a bit blurry at the same time as I was told it would be. When I woke up the next day my vision was crystal clear. It really has changed my life and I don’t know why I put it off for so long but I would highly recommend it to anyone!

I could not be happier with the quality of service I received from Optilase. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and informative and were committed to making me feel as comfortable as possible. The surgery itself worked a treat I'm delighted with the results. I'd recommend Optilase to anyone thinking of getting laser eye treatment, its the best thing I've ever done.

I had LASIK surgery almost 4 weeks ago.
The staff were very friendly and helpful in the Dublin Office and always willing to help.
The opticians, nurses and surgeons were amazing and did a great job at putting your mind at ease and explaining all relevant information.
Follow up appointments were so thorough.
Most importantly - my eyesight was better than 20/20 within 24 hours and I’ve never felt better!!!
E. W.
Good environment and overall good experience! Happy with my eyesight now 5 months post the surgery. But I do feel the pre and post-care could be improved. Some examples:
- I didn’t hear anything from the clinic after my deposit payment and before the surgery. It gave me some nerves cuz I worried I might have missed some important checklists.
- only right before I entered the surgery room that the nurse showed me the checklist of post-surgery care. But I didn’t have enough time to read it through and note down everything before being urged into the surgery.
- call follow-ups: a few times I missed their phone calls and then requested a call-back. But they never called me back. This included the third check 3 months after the surgery. But they never called me back after my follow-up calls.
With that saying, the result is good so far 5 months after my surgery! I did PRK, so the recovery is slower. Please expect many dry eyes in the first few months. I still can’t rub or press my eyes as before without feeling any soreness (but it’s also a good way to keep your eye hygiene)!

I'm absolutely thrilled with my optilase experience and delighted with the results. A huge thanks from me goes to all of the staff; from Collette in the Galway office, to the team in reception in Dublin, to Paula who briefed me before surgery, to Niamh who explained what exactly was gonna happen right before surgery and finally on to Tom who performed the surgery itself. They were all so professional and thorough in their explanations and their work. I'm so thrilled with the results and im sorry i didn't get it done years ago!!!

Had my laser eye done in Cork. Great experience, everything really explained by Dan and he took the time to answer all questions. Nothing is rushed and they make you feel at ease. Great follow up care, very professional and all Covid guidelines adhered to. Highly recommended.
C. F.
Got my surgery here a couple years ago. I’ve had perfect eyesight ever since and never had any issues. Life changing. Thanks to all the team, very professional.
S. M.
I had a great experience throughout my procedure at Optilase. The staff were always lovely and helpful, and I felt completely at ease before, during, and after the procedure. I was quite nervous about the thoughts of having the surgery but the staff were always reassuring and I am so glad that I choose to have my eye surgery done with them. Would 100% recommend Optilase to anyone!
J. S.
Fantastic. 2yrs later just had eye exam. Vision perfect. Could not recommend Optilase. Very nice people and very professional.
N. N.
Lovely Clinic and lovely staff. Went to get laser done here as was sick of wearing glasses. Initial consultations were very thorough and any questions you had about the procedure were answered. Linda in patricular was really great at explaining it. On the day of the surgery everything again was very thorough and any nerves you have put at ease. I felt a bit nervous druing the procedure but was told only ten seconds left etc and made me feel much more at ease. Delighted with the results. No more glasses :)
Also Covid proticols are top notch here.
A. J.
Had a great experience with Optilase! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. So patient to answer all my questions and very informative. The procedure wasn’t painful and even though I got a bit panicked the nurses and staff were so lovely and helped calm me down- even held my hand during it! Couldn’t recommend them enough.
s. H.
I had my surgery done over 10 years ago, excuse the pun but I've never looked back!! It was the best self investment ever and I still dont have to wear glasses to this day my sight is still pretty perfect, the staff and care I received really was 10/10. Highly recommend Optilase, always have!!
M. B.
I would highly recommend doing laser eye surgery at Optilase. The whole process does not take too long from 1st consultation to the surgery it was about 2 months (during the lockdown period). The staff is fantastic, they are very patient and so empathetic. I was actually very nervous on the day of the surgery, and everyone was very reassuring. The surgeon took time before the surgery to ask me questions and to answer my multiple questions. The reception team is very friendly and helpful, especially after the surgery they helped me get a taxi and came outside to assist me to get the taxi. I saw 2 or 3 different ophthalmologists and they are very professional and despite all the machines and tests, they manage to always add a personal touch to the interaction, which I find made me feel more comfortable. I have had my 3 months appointment last week with a fantastic ophthalmologist (I forgot her name sorry) and I am now able to see more than 20/20. Thank you to everyone who made things go smoothly with a professional service and customized interactions. I am extremely satisfied with Optilase and will definitely recommend it. 😘
M. t.
Really great experience both in the Clinic in Dublin and appointments in Galway. The procedure was really quick and painless and although I couldn’t notice much improvement straight after the procedure, I had 20/20 vision the following day. Wish I got the procedure done sooner! Living life in HD 🙌

Posting a month after my surgery to correct -3.5 vision.
Several things to say about this place and I hope this helps you make your decision about whether going ahead with laser eye surgery with Optilase is the right choice for you. This is quite a big decision so here is as much as I can give you in a review..
Location: 8/10
I would have preferred if the clinic was a little outside the city where parking would be right outside but with that said, Tesco parking is a short 5 minute walk away so arranging a lift for after the surgery was not difficult. Optilase is on second floor, accessible by stairs or lift if you're lazy or have a mobility issue.
The staff: 10/10
I don't think I can commend them enough for how I was treated in there. Everyone was incredibly nice and knowledgeable and any of my concerns or general questions were answered without issue.
The procedure: This is personal to how it goes for you but mine went incredibly smooth (LASIK). I'm generally a very calm person so I didn't need a sedative and had no stress from check-in to post-op. Everyone was welcoming and reassuring and the surgeon had answers to anything I wanted to know. My surgery lasted about 15 minutes from the time I lay down in the table. The worst part was actually the surgeon forcing down a suction cup type of thing onto each eye to help keep it still because it has to be on pretty tight. The rest is painless and you barely even feel anything other than the discomfort of knowing someone is touching your eye. Once that was done, I was sat up, and asked how I feel, I gave it the ok and was, not joking, out if the building in about 5 mins, being helped by my wife to get to the car. It was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be and please don't overthink it when you read exactly what they do to your eye. It doesn't hurt and is over very quickly.
Recovery: 5/10
This part was far tougher than the surgery because of how hopeless you are for the first 24hours. I'd honestly recommend to just let your spouse or any family member baby you for it because it's not a fun experience and the less you pretend to be a strong independent person, the better your recovery will be. You should also prepare everything you need for a day at least. Snacks and audiobook did it for me.
Your eyes will feel tired, heavy and tears will stream down your eyes for absolutely no reason. It feels terrible but that's just like the first few hours after every surgery. I had no pain though, just discomfort. I had my surgery at about 4pm. Went for a nap between 5 and 8 and when I was up I already felt a lot better but the discomfort in the eyes persisted for about 48hours. After the first night sleep I was feeling much better and was ok to open my eyes without feeling too uncomfortable after a few seconds. By the end of the first week I had no discomfort at all and felt like a new person.
You receive a post surgery care package which is very important to use properly without missing any timings.
My vision now: 10/10.
I do have 20/20 vision but I had a tiny bit of weird blurring around the edges for about 2 weeks when looking around. Apparently that's what people refer to as the halos. Thankfully they are gone now. The only negative is that my close focus is still not perfect. I am unable to focus on things closer than 15-20 cm which I don't really have a reason to do, basically ever but it is something that has changed compared to before. I have my 1 month checkup tomorrow. If anything changes I'll update here but I'm optimistic that it'll go well.
Price: 6/10
This is again personal because for very minor correction you might pay a bit less but mine was quite pricey even after referral and health insurance discount. It's hard to put a price on your eye sight though. I think it was worth it.
If I could go back, would I do it again?
Absolutely yes!
S. D.
The team at Optilase were fantastic from the minute I walked through the door for my consultation right up until days after my PRK surgery. Dan and the team made sure I was aware of the full procedure and there were no hidden extras. The PRK surgery itself was completely painless and was over within 20 minutes - I am 5 days post op and have absolutely no pain at all. Luckily I didn’t need to take anything stronger than Nurofen for 3 days after surgery. The cleanliness and precautions in place were second to none. A massive thanks again to all the team at Optilase Cork.
6 month update; I have been discharged from Optilase and have better than 20:20 vision. I have had absolutely no complications post PRK surgery and Dan was happy with my quick recovery. This has definitely been one of the best decisions I have ever made. Once you get over the first 3 days post op you’ll feel like a new person. I would definitely recommend getting strong omega 3 fish oils I found them excellent and think that’s why I recovered so quickly.
If anyone is thinking about it and unsure my advice would definitely be to do it or at least book in for a consultation with one of the optometrist they will talk you through everything and what surgery is best suited to you without any pressure to commit. The only regret I have is not getting it done sooner.
D. G.
I'm still amazed at my results. From the moment I stood up after my surgery my sight was perfect! The staff in Optilase were very professional from the first phone call to book my assessment and every step thereafter. My procedure was Lasic and it truly was 24 hour recovery. I haven't had a second of pain or discomfort after the initial light sensitivity. If you considering laser eye surgery then I would definitely recommend Optilase.
L. C.
I had a great experience with Optilase and I still can’t believe I can see without glasses for the first time in my life. The COVID-19 precautions were very well managed at all stages, which was very reassuring and set the tone for the clear, thorough service I’ve had. I was also so grateful for the professional and welcoming reception staff, and felt confident I could at least call with any questions or issues that arose. My consultation, surgery, and follow-up appointments always included a clear explanation for me about what was being done and why, and I knew what to expect. Even with a minor issue after surgery, I was grateful for a clear treatment plan and extra appointments to ensure (thankfully!) a successful resolution. I would recommend Optilase to a friend.
D. B.
Besides my surgery date being rescheduled, which resulted in me having to take time off work. Where as for the original date I had arranged cover. Aside from that, its amazing from consultation to surgery. I keep going to lift my glasses and realise, they aren't there anymore. 2 weeks post surgery today, my is perfect at stages but blurs when I'm tired. Another 2 weeks or so and it should be constantly perfect.
L. R.
Very professional staff who really put you at ease. The follow up and after care is brilliant. I have recommended so many people go to optilase as the quality of service won’t be beaten.
M. G. M.
I did my surgery last Friday and I can already tell that this was one of my best decision ever. I was shortsighted and I had a very high prescription (-7.50). I couldn't imagine that I would be able to have a normal life without the need of wearing glasses. If you are thinking about getting it done, go for it, you won't regret it.
L. L.
From start to finish my experience with Optilase was brilliant. They looked after me from my first appointment to my last. I can't thank them enough for giving me my vision back. My eyes are so bad that I still can't believe how I can see everything now. The operation itself was over in a few minutes and the aftercare was great. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I would do it all again with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much for everything.
J.
I had LASIK surgery 5 days ago in the Dublin clinic and all I can say is that Optilase changed my life for the better! I had a very bad myopia and I can finally see without glasses for the first time in my life, this is just incredible I cannot be grateful enough. The surgery went perfectly, painless and so quick just as the recovery! The team in Dublin is unreal, extremely friendly and takes such good care of you, thank you so so much!
T. C.
I always wanted to get the surgery however I kept putting it off for years. I went with the PRK surgery and I have absolutely no regrets. The thought of wearing contact lenses 7 days a week literally terrifies me today. I would definitely recommend going with Optilase, the treatment is first class and the staff are really friendly and informative. Its one of the best decisions I ever made.
M. C.
Hi had laser eye surgery in September 2020. To say I am delighted with the surgery is an understatement. Having worn contacts for a few years for both normal use and playing sports the change has been dramatic. Optilase were fantastic to deal with and very helpful at all times. It was easily one of the best decision I ever made and wonder why it took me so long to make!
P. S.
I was thinking about getting laser eye surgery for a few years, the final push came with Covid and been on construction sites using face masks and glasses the glasses steamed up during the winter months and was unsafe, I decided to take the plunge and make an enquiry, I am delighted I did, from moment I made enquiry to my first consultation to the day of the surgery the team made me feel at ease, I am so happy with the results I wish I done it sooner, I drove at night for first time since the surgery today (5 days after surgery ) and past issues with blurs and glears was no more, 5 stars to the team thanks very much, I feel a new me.

I got the laser eye surgery in June with Optilase and I couldn’t fault it. Very professional service provided and the staff were very helpful and friendly. They talked me through the process and answered all my questions that I had. The surgeon was lovely and put me at ease. I couldn’t fault Optilase at all!! Had a brilliant experience and they have corrected my vision completely. Have better than 20/20 vision! Thank you to Optilase it has made my life 100% better!!
R. M.
I can't recommend Optilase Clinic enough! Last year after many years of wearing glasses and contact lenses, I made the decision to look into laser eye surgery. Having heard good things about Optilase from friends, I booked my consultation and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made! The care and professionalism I received was second to none. Optilase were there to answer any questions I had every step of the way in regards my PRK surgery and the aftercare. Being able to see unaided every day is a revelation and I'd encourage anyone who is interested to book their consultation with Optilase today!
I. B.
Having gone through the entire process with Optilase I would genuinely recommend them for anyone considering laser eye surgery. They treated me very well throughout the entire process and answered any questions I had making me feel at ease. The results have been fantastic and well worth all the effort and expense.
S. M.
The best investment I ever made on myself. Got my LASIK done 4 weeks ago with Optilase and the only thing I keep wondering is why didn't I get this done sooner. It was an amazing experience from start to finish at the Optilase Ely Place clinic. The staff were super helpful and knowledgeable and they explained everything at every stage. Post operative checkups were thorough. I definitely recommend paying a visit to Optilase if you have been wondering about Lasik.
R. M.
Absolutely amazing from my consultation to my surgery, all the staff were brilliant and made me feel so comfortable even though I was very nervous. Couldn't recommend optilaze enough for their over all services and support through the whole process
A. F.
From Start to finish Optilase we’re so easy and straightforward to deal with, the care was second to none and I can honestly say after wearing glasses for 15 years it was the best decision I have ever made! My vision is now better than 20/20 and the freedom it has given me is unbelievable thanks to everyone at Optilase
A. M.
A very easy experience from first tests to the procedure itself. All the staff are so helpful and really put you at ease. The surgery itself is absolutely fine, the doctor and techs walk you through each step and it’s over before you know it. Couldn’t recommend Optilase more!
S. M.
Overall was a very good experience, everyone that works here are very friendly, and all try and put you at ease before surgery but I arrived at 9:30 for my surgery which didn’t go ahead until after 11:30 - I think there may have been an issue with another customer which delayed my surgery but I was very happy with the results and the after care, I was just a bit nervous so the delay just prolonged this a bit. But I would recommend this business to anyone, good experience overall.
D. N.
Optilase made this process very easy, they were very informative and helpful, I am so happy I got laser eye surgery done and even happier I went with optilase
C. J.
I got my laser eye surgery done with Optilase in July and I’m very grateful for the experience. The zestful staff made my journey very comfortable from start to finish and still check up on me to this day. The surgery itself was painless with a very short recovery. The recovery had my eyes a little irritated for a few days but well worth the outcome. I highly recommend Optilase to whoever is considering this life changing surgery.

C. M.
Have recommended everyone I know to go get it done. The staff were so professional throughout the whole treatment. It's a life changing procedure that I'm so glad I went through with!
J. B.
I asked to be placed on a cancellation list and managed to get my eyes corrected very swiftly. Everyone was so helpful, the surgery itself was a painless and quick experience. Everyone during the procedure made me feel so calm and kept me occupied during the procedure. Couldn't recommend enough and would definitely recommend Optilase.
L. O.
All the staff in Optilase are very welcoming and helpful. If you want laser surgery I definitely recommend Optilase Clinic Eye Surgery.
R. M.
Very professional and efficient. Had no qualms about anything involved and felt very reassured. I have no regrets about getting the procedure done however recovery was rough and I never want to have to get it redone. Have recommended Optilase to all my glasses wearing friends.
A. Q.
I could not recommend optilase enough. I had my laser eye surgery done 2 years ago. The staff are so friendly and made me feel relaxed from start to finish. The procedure is easier than a general eye test . My procedure took just 4 minutes. I would advise anyone that is in the position to have laser eye surgery to go for it. You will never look back 👏🤗.
R. M.
Cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Optilase. From the staff at receptionists to the consultants and surgeons, everyone in the building makes you feel like you're their number one priority all the way through your journey.
In terms of the surgery itself (LASIK in my case), it was nearly painless, a few hours of slight discomfort afterwards, and then I woke up the next day with vision even better than 20/20. To go from relying on glasses and contacts 24/7 to be able to see crystal clear with your own eyes, is a priceless feeling. Would recommend Optilase to anyone considering laser eye surgery.
A. K.
Only a week after the Lasik surgery and it’s amazing! My vision is getting better and better every day after 25 years wearing glasses and contact lenses. The Optilase team were great, very informative and helpful. No stress at all and the procedure itself was soo quick. The first few hours afterwards were a bit on a harsh side but that’s totally worth it. The only one thing I regret was not doing it years ago :) 100% recommended!!
C. P.
I had Lasik treatment in October and I wish I'd done it years ago. I was so nervous but everything went so well. The staff at Optilase were amazing. They talked me through each step as the morning went on and put me at ease. I could see perfectly within 3 hours of having the surgery. I have had 4 check ups since (24hrs, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months) and everything is perfect.
I would 100% recommend anyone thinking about Laser Eye Surgery go for it with Optilase , I cannot fault them 1 bit.
R. B.
Going to Optilase was the best thing I ever done, don't know myself since. The service was great and the process simple. I 100% recommend.
A. G.
I had a fantastic experience with Optilase. From consultation to laser eye procedure the professionalism and care was amazing.
I was sightshorted on both eyes (6.5 degree) and could not see without glasses or contact lenses. Now after few weeks since the surgery i can see perfectly without any glasses or lens.
It is a life change experience and it has been one of the best decision o my life.
It is amazing how life is easier without glasses.
Absolutely recomended
R. S.
My whole experience with optilase was great. All of the staff were great, super friendly and helped me through all the steps, answering any questions and helping with all I needed. They made me feel comfortable and confident in the procedure and then delivered excellent results. 2 years later, eyesight is still great! Can't recommend them highly enough.
A. K.
After years of talking about it, I finally got LASIK eye surgery done last Friday evening in the Dublin clinic. There is absolutely nothing I can fault about my experience. Every member of staff were friendly, polite and very reassuring. The girls on the front desk were so helpful and pleasant. From the moment I went in, I was delighted with the care I received. The surgery itself was a total breeze, I couldn’t get over how quick and painless it was. I would definitely recommend anyone who is considering getting laser eye surgery to do it. You will not regret it!
K. G.
Very thorough with explaining everything involved and very accommodating. No complaints whatsoever. Very happy with the results one week on from surgery.
H. T.
I had an amazing experience with Optilase. They were always there to answer my queries and support me. The aftercare is superb and I always felt like I was in safe hands. It was the best decision I’ve ever made getting laser eye surgery. It’s completely changed my life for the better and I have Optilase to thank for that.
C. Q.
I had a great experience overall with my laser eye surgery. All of the staff were very friendly & accommodating. My only negative is I had very little interaction with the surgeon & would have preferred a more throughout consultation on the day. However I would recommend having it done any day!
O. G.
Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Extremely helpful and friendly staff for both my consultation, surgery and follow up appointments. Would recommend to anyone looking to get laser eye surgery in a heartbeat.
M. S.
The staff at Optilase were so warm and welcoming, they really put my nerves at ease and walked me through the process step-by-step always ensuring I was informed and knew what the next step was.
The procedure itself was life-changing, over and done in just a few minutes. Once the short recovery period was over, I could go about my day-to-day life with new-found sight and never have to worry about glasses / contacts holding me back in my sports.
L. K.
I was excited in relation what will be the result after the surgery. I am really satisfied now. This surgery was my best decision in my life. The laser eye surgery gave back me the freedom. Thanks Optilase!👍👍
P. M.
Fantastic service from start to finish. The staff were so polite and helpful with my questions and concerns. Just normal people! The after service was second to none with a 24 hour contact number give for any information needed out of house after surgery. Best of all no glasses! 6 weeks after surgery and my sight is still improving. Definitely recommended 😊
L.
I can't recommend it high enough. My eyesight was terrible I was legally blind if I lived in america. Now I can see crystal clear and I am seeing absolutely everything. Only got it in September so still going to my follow up appointments but I would do it all again tomorrow! You lye on the bed blind as a bat and as soon as they tell you to sit up you can see around the whole room plus you get funny space glasses to sleep in for the first few days. It's painless. The recovery isn't bad. It's like sleeping with your contact lenses in. Eyes constantly dry for a week or so. But a paper cut is more sore than Optilase you feel nothing at all. Just make sure you use all the drops and gel in your eyes before sleep.
L. B.
I honestly can't recommend Optilase highly enough. I had my lasik eye surgery last November and it's been life changing. The surgery was literally only 44 seconds per eye. The recovery process was a breeze and by the next morning I had better than 20/20 vision. For like 3 weeks after surgery I kept going to push my glasses up my nose thinking I was still wearing them as my vision was so perfect! The staff in Ely Place are lovely, everyone from the call centre, to the optometrists to the surgery team. I also love that this company offer a 'Lifetime Guarantee' so even if I were to experience regression later in life I can get free laser eye surgery to get back to that 20/20 vision. If you're on the fence, do it, treat yourself to 20/20 in 2020! I only wish I'd done it 10 years ago!
M. L.
Very friendly staff, very thorough in their information and patient with going through your different options. I had my surgery a month ago and I was super nervous. Everyone from the optometrists, to the nurses, surgeons, receptionists and technicians were so lovely and calming. My vision is nearly perfect again, getting better every week, and I do not miss my glasses one bit!
Á. R.
I got my LASIK done at Optilase 2 weeks ago. Best decision I ever made. I can see everything so clearly and the recovery was so easy and quick. Would recommend to anyone. The staff were so kind and helpful too! 10/10!
A. M.
Would highly recommend Optilase, the entire team from the receptionists to the surgeon were all very friendly and helpful from start to finish. I can’t remember the name of the surgeons assistant on the day, but she was so friendly and helpful with some pre-surgery nerves I had on the day resulting in the whole experience being positive and enjoyable. Very happy with my results so far and have recommended Optilase to friends and family. Big thank you to the whole team!

I was originally unsure whether I was ready to make the leap to get laser eye surgery as it seemed like a big decision to make. However, from my first consultation, I knew I was in safe hands with Optilase. All my questions were answered confidently during that consultation and in the lead-up to the surgery. On the day of my surgery, there were several more tests and conversations to ensure all precautions had been taken. Overall it was a great experience and I’m so happy to have chosen Optilase
K. F.
Great experience from first consultation to aftercare and everything in between. Staff were very professional and put me at ease throughout. I cant believe how quick and easy it was to get better than 20/20 vision, especially when I had a very high prescription and its such a huge difference now! I would reccomend Optilase to anyone who is interested! Go for it!
R. N.
Best decision I ever made was getting laser eye surgery. I was debating to get laser eye surgery for a few and as I said best decision I ever made.Very friendly and helpful staff to deal with in optilase. I 100% recommend optilase.
e. M.
Optilase were absolutely fantastic. I was a bit nervous before my surgery as you would be and have worn glasses for as long as I can remember I never thought it would be possible to not need my glasses/contact lenses at all. The surgery was painless and the recovery quicker than you could imagine with optilase helping you every step of way. All the staff were so friendly and put you at ease right away. If your thinking about laser eye surgery I would recommend optilase I havent looked back since. Still amazed at the result !! :)
E. M.
I had laser eye surgery just over a month ago and I cannot recommend it enough. I’ve had glasses for as long as I can remember and now I have perfect vision! Would definitely recommend the clinic at Ely Place as every staff member is friendly and helpful! They are thorough, efficient and explain everything in depth. The surgery itself is very quick and painless with instant improvement. A couple hours of discomfort and a week of drops are a small price to pay for 20/20 vision.
E. L.
I had my eyes lasered with Optilase recently and I highly recommend. I'd worn contacts for years and always thought about laser done at some stage, I wish I'd done it sooner now. There was very little down time, literally 24hrs later I felt fine and could work off my laptop again. I'd heard that ones eyes can be really gritty and/or dry afterwards but other than a little dryness it's been fine. The team in Optliase, from surgery through to aftercare has been fantastic. For anyone thinking of getting laser I recommend you consider Optliase.
A. C.
I had been wearing glasses for 21 years before my surgery. I contemplated getting the treatment around 4 years ago but the nerves got to me and I regret that now, given the results. I got PRK three weeks ago and it was a great decision. The surgery itself is not painful and only lasts a few minutes. I was really impressed by the immediate results as I was able to read the clock on the wall. While I did have some pain for the next few days, I didn't need any painkillers after the third day. Honestly, it was worth the pain for the results. I can see far better than I could with glasses and feel the surgery has given me a new lease on life.
R. A.
I've had a consultation in Athlone and the lady there was very helpful, she went through all the available procedures and suggested the one that was most suitable for me. Everything was clear from the very first consultation. From the financial point, to the aftermath of the actual surgery. So there was no surprises. The surgery itself was very quick! It took maybe 20 minutes. The staff at the optilase clinic were extremely friendly, caring and supportive from the moment you stepped in the door. The wonderful staff at the reception and the medical staff were most delightful to interact with.
If anyone wonders, no the surgery itself wasn't painful, the surgeon was very delicate and careful, making you aware throughout the entire surgery of what was happening.
I can't recommend the Optilase clinic enough. I'm really glad I did my surgery, and the comfort of not wearing glasses is pure joy.
E. M.
Very informative and thorough before the surgery, so you knew exactly what to expect. Everyone was so lovely and knowledgeable, and really thorough aftercare.
n. l.
Absolutely delighted with the outcome and experience. I was terrified to get laser done but there was no need to be at all. The procedure was so quick and pain free. The staff were amazing, so kind and explained everything which put me at ease and were talking to me during the procedure too which helped calm my nerves a lot. Can't recommend Optilase enough, after 5 years of struggling to do simple things like see the street signs it was 20/20 vision after literally a few minutes in Optilase.
Also a big thank you to the reception staff who are always so helpful when you have a query.

For someone who could not see further than her nose without glasses, I thought about having this procedure for many years but was never sure where to do it. Now that I finally did it with Optilase, I must say it changed everything for the better. All my questions were answered, the operation was very smooth and the aftercare is amazing. I live in a whole new world now, and I am loving it. Totally worth it!

I got laser eye done at the end of July and it's the best thing I've ever done. All of the Optilase staff were so friendly and professional, they put me at ease completely and answered any questions I had before and after the surgery. I'm delighted I've had no issues at all with my eyes since
A. D.
I came to Optilase for the first time back in September for my consultation and immediately felt at ease and welcomed. My lasik surgery was booked in for January and I was so nervous coming in but everyone made me feel calm, the treatment itself was so quick that I didn’t have time to worry too much. One week on and I feel like I’m living a new life with my vision! I couldn’t recommend optilase enough!
L. E.
I would highly recommend Optilase for laser eye surgery. The whole process was easy and everything is thoroughly explained in each appointment. The monthly repayments through Flexifi make it attainable but not everyone is eligible so check it out before you pay your €400 deposit. I marked one star off due to the waiting times I experienced at each appointment.

Had laser eye surgery in January 2019 with optilase. 2 years later I can gladly say it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.. Optilase provided great care before, during and after the surgery. I was extremely nervous and had lots of questions prior to the surgery which they were happy to answer and relieve my anxieties.. Highly reccomend.
R. M.
I just had my PRK eye surgery done few days back and my experience with Optilase team is of high quality. They will really take care of you from the assessment of your eyes until post surgery follow up. Thank you Optilase team for a wonderful experience. You are all really professional and your service is at par. It's all worth it.
A. K.
Excellemt service! Each staff member was engaging and friendly. Everything was explained to a high standard.
It was a very calming atmosphere and the surgery was over within minutes!
I would highly recommend optilase to anyone considering It.
S. C.
The procedure itself was over so quickly, my eyesight was immediately improved. By that evening I had 20/20 vision. After care is amazing and the staff are really lovely and really look after you.
O. P.
A very professional and friendly approach to the patient meant that I was not under so much stress. Everything is exactly explained what to do after the laser treatment. Optilase Clinic is guided by the well-being of patients, therefore everything is carefully checked before the laser vision correction. I recommend with all my heart.
C.
For years I had contemplated on getting laser eye surgery and when I finally did, I am so glad I went with optilase. From the first phone consultation to the actually surgery, they were so helpful and understanding. They have the friendliest and most professional staff and the after care is remarkable.
I can't recommend them enough.
c. m. d.
The best choice I’ve ever made. I got my laser eye surgery two years ago it has changed my life. I could not believe that I could finally see everything from the stars in the sky to the leafs in the trees. My boyfriend is scheduled to get it this summer. I would definitely recommend this procedure the staff in the Cork clinic were fantastic I felt at ease the minute I booked in.
I. K.
Had my laser eye surgery about 4 years ago couldn't recommend it enough my eyes have been perfect since getting it done well worth what it costs
L. M.
I had Lasik surgery in January 2021. I found the staff at Optilase to be very helpful, kind and professional. The process entire was very easy and very well organised. I felt very safe as all appropriate infection control procedures were in place. The staff we very knowledgeable and I was very comfortable in their care. Overall, a very easy and pleasant experience.
L. S.
Best money I have ever spent! The staff were so friendly and thorough with explaining everything from the prepping prior to the surgery, the surgery itself and the aftercare. I just wish I had come to optilase sooner. Thank you so much to everyone whom I dealt with in there!
R. X.
I had my PRK eye surgery with Optilase in the middle of November 2020. I was really nervous before the surgery, however everyone at the clinic reassured me that everything will be ok. The surgery was very quick, it took maybe 15 minutes in total and I didn't feel any pain during it. From the receptionist, to the nurses and optometrists everybody was very friendly and welcoming. They answered all my questions and reassured me from the beginning. Now, 3 months after my surgery I couldn't be happier with my decision to do the PRK with Optilase. Finally I don't need to reach for my glasses in the morning to see, I don't get foggy glasses with the masks anymore. I just wish I had done it earlier!
L. M.
I got laser eye surgery on December 16th 2020 and it was the best decision I have ever made I only wish I done it sooner! I would HIGHLY recommend optilase for this surgery, the whole process was so smooth. I was very nervous on the day of the surgery and the whole team at optilase Dublin could not have been more supportive. Fantastic experience from start to finish and I couldn’t be happier with the results.
B. L.
Optilase made me feel comfortable from the moment I stepped in the clinic. I was so nervous from leaving my house and going to a clinic due to Covid-19. However, Optilase made sure I feel safe. I really recommend Optilase as they were very hands-on before surgery, during surgery and after surgery. My only regret was, why did I not do it earlier.. It was so worth it, and I did not feel any pain during the procedure.
P. C.
Would 100% recommend Optilase. From my initial appointment through to surgery the staff were incredible. Provided with me with all the details I asked for and the prices was great. After the surgery as well the aftercare was incredible becasue they were quick to respond to any of my queries and provide options as well
M. M.
The treatment itself was so fast and everyone in the Dublin clinic was really nice and helpful. Unfortunately the checkup I was supposed to have in Galway was cancelled because the lady had to have a vaccine. That would have been fine if I had got proper notice and not being stuck looking for parking in Galway after travelling from mayo to. She was extremely rude and unhelpful on the phone. I look forward to my follow up appointments in Limerick where the staff have been much friendlier.
K. J.
A friend of mine referred me to Optilase after they had the surgery. I cant explain how good my eyes are after the surgery, they are better than when I was using glasses. It was very professional with all precautions due to covid and all were helpful from receptionist to the surgeon.I would recommend anyone who’s even hesitant to go for the consultation and you won’t be disappointed.
L. W.
I had LASEK eye surgery in August 2020 with optilase. The whole experience went so smoothly, I couldn't believe how quickly the surgery was over. The staff were very kind and answered every question I had. I got dirt in my eye on two separate occasions after the surgery and they quickly brought me in to get it out and check that my eyes were both okay and not scratched. I was in some pain the week after the surgery and they were very good with calling my mam and me to reassure me that it was all normal and how to relieve the pain. It was the best decision I've made and have zero regrets. I have 20/20 vision now and so happy I don't have to wear glasses or contacts while wearing a facemask.
G. H.
I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone looking to get laser eye surgery. The staff are very friendly and make you feel at home and relaxed. They explain and run through every small detail. The surgery it self was very quick and painless, the surgery staff are constantly talking and reassuring when your on the table. They have good after care in place too
L. B.
Everything from start to finish was done in a very friendly and professional manner.
Especially considering that I had my eye surgery just before the Covid pandemic and all follow up appointments had to be reworked around this, I was kept informed at all times about how this would work and all my appointments took place to ensure I was looked after post surgery.
Would recommend if you are considering getting the surgery.
V. O.
My experience with Optilase has been wonderful so far. Even with the current situation, the communication has been great and I've always felt very comfortable with everyone that I met in the clinic. The surgery was extremely quick and painless, with the best outcome possible. A life changing experience!
G. M.
Great experience. The procedure itself was relatively pain free and the follow up care was second to none.
I got LASIK on a Friday evening, had a follow up the next morning and my eyes were feeling great that day. Thank you Optilase
E. B.
My experience with Optilase was fantastic. Laser eye surgery has changed my life. I would highly recommend it to anyone!
J. B. M.
I had my Lasik done at Optilase-Dublin and I couldn't be more happier with the result. I've been using contact lenses for more than 15 years and been wanting to do the procedure for the longest time. They offer free consultation and assess if your fit for surgery and offer best options for you. Ive been affected by the covid thing on the day of my surgery and optilase is so gracious to adjust and fix all my schedule. They are fully equipped and have protocols addressing issues during this pandemic. The staff is very accommodating and pleasant. Thank you to all the staff, opticians, nurses and surgeon that became part of my glass and lens-free journey. No regret in choosing Optilase-Dublin. Now I can see the difference!
M. M.
I decided to go get laser done towards the end of 2020 . I knew about it before but it was when one of the lads who never even wore glasses came into work one day with pre surgery glasses and when asked why he was wearing them he told me he was getting laser . I myself had been wearing glasses for 5 years . That was the definitive moment when I knew I wanted to get laser done . I have no regrets wat so ever since I had the surgery I was a little apprehensive about the cost but I can honestly say it was worth every cent . The staff were friendly and helpful throughout the surgery itself was less than a couple of minutes. The recovery time was a good sleep. I would recommend anyone to do it sooner rather than later in life as you can get the most out of it . No more broken glasses cleaning glasses no more glasses. Thanks to all the staff . Cant say enough good things .
l. O. S.
My experience with Optilase was absolutely incredible. I genuinely could not fault them. It was so quick and easy. This made the process easy but also made me a little anxious that they made everything sound so simple. But on the day of the surgery when I met the surgeon, he really knew his stuff and knew my individual case in detail with all the facts and figures. This and the nurse really made me at ease on the day of the surgery. I had a complicated prescription because of my astigmatism but Optilase have been incredible. I would recommend to anyone to get laser eye surgery, without sounding dramatic it really has changed my life.
A. S.
Absolutely delighted with how my lasik Surgery went. All the staff in optilase Dublin are lovely and very friendly. Everything is well explained and I felt extremely comfortable before and after surgery. A big thank you to you all because this was definitely the best thing I’ve ever done!! I would highly recommend optilase to anyone and it’s definitely worth getting it done!! My vision has never been better 😌😌
D. C.
Prk surgery with Optilase done four months ago, I cant say enough good things about Optilase, I have metal plates in my skull from an accident when I was a teenager Optilase even consulted my doctor to ensure it was safe to proceed, as for the surgery it's self and the after care it's brilliant, there is a 24hr phone number to contact the clinic and speak to your surgery team if any issues arise. I had the prk surgery before which I met my team ,chatted to the surgeon and was made very comfortable. Had the surgery popped off home , I have been to my aftercare appts at which I was given plenty of drops and advice , so in all my experience with Optilase was first class 5star all the way. I recommend Optilase to everyone.
A. B.
Smooth experience! I was stressed and the staff knew how to make me relaxed. The operation was fine, and it was a lige changer to me ! No regret.
D. L.
I received Prk laser eye surgery exactly 1 month ago and the results are amazing. I couldn't recommend optilase enough. As you will read from the other reviews and the staff are brilliant. I have had my check ups and consultations in Limerick and Cork while having my surgery in Dublin. All the staff are lovely. The surgery itself is so quick and painless. I was in the surgery chair for no more than 5 mins. The 3 days after the surgery were tough but not painful, make sure to have painkillers, sunglasses, radio, audio books, etc. If I had any advice to anyone it would be to not look into the surgery too much as I had freaked myself out beforehand. Other than that it was a brilliant experience and I am delighted to able to see Crystal clear without contacts and glasses. 100% recommend optilase. Big thank you to Marie in Limerick and Dan in cork
A. Q.
The people in optilase are lovely, very professional and friendly, I felt well taken care of by everyone there. Unfortunately one of the side effects is dry eyes which I am still suffering from months later. As a result I have been unable to work (my job involves 11 hour days on a laptop) the dryness doesn't bother me as much if I'm not looking at a screen but quickly becomes unbearable when I do. I had no problem working those hours on a screen before the surgery. My eyes should improve over time but had I known that I would be one of the unfortunate people to suffer from this side effect I would never have had the procedure.
K. O. B.
Couldn't speak more highly of the service. I was also incredibly lucky in Limerick to have Marie look after me, she is exceptional.
Everything in advance of the procedure and following it was top class.
L. K.
Such a wonderful experience with Optilase, getting my laser eye surgery here really improved so many things in my life!
R. H.
A very polite and supportive team at Optilase which made the experience as stress free as possible. My eyesight has been perfect for now 1.5 years and I have not experienced any side effects. I easily reach Optilase by telephone if it have any concerns or questions.
s. j.
I had Lasik done here in November. The service was very professional, they procedure took about 15 and I had 20/20 vision in 2 days time. The follow up visitations make sure that your 20/20 vision is maintained. One thing I have noticed is that my night vision took about 4 months to return to the level it was before the treatment. I would suggest yellow filtered glasses if you plan on driving at night soon after the procedure.
N. D.
Fantastic experience from start to end. Having 2020 vision is a dream come true. Days after surgery I could see my 3 kids faces first thing in the morning without having to scramble for glasses or contacts. Every member of staff from receptionist to nurse during surgery, from initial assessment to surgery exceptional. Thank you to my surgeon and everyone at optilase!
C. M.
I was very nervous going in for the surgery, but from the get go, every member of staff that i talked to reassured me that i had nothing to worry about and i would not regret making my decision to have the laser eye surgery. Each step was explained thoroughly to me. I liked the fact that a few members of staff had laser eye surgery already so could tell me what it was like first hand. The worst part for me was getting the drops in, i gate drops, but after that i felt nothing. I remember the surgeon humming a tune while doing the surgery which actually put me at ease as i thought, he's obviously done this so many times before, it's second nature to him!
The healing process that evening was a bit uncomfortable but i couldn't believe how much i could see the next morning. Would highly recommend optilase, such friendly and professional staff, very clean and covid safe, a decision in delighted with.
N. D.
I was a bit sceptical of laser eye surgery being afraid to wear contact lenses for years, I went for a consultation and was made feel so comfortable from start to finish , that I booked in for my laser eye surgery while I was in the clinic and I haven't looked back since! It was by far the best thing I ever done ✔ 🙌 not needing to worry about glasses anymore,Thanks to all the team at optilase !
K. S.
It is the best decision I ever made ❤ my vision is better than expected! Staff is very professional and top class surgeon with many years of experience. I recommend Optilase to all my friends and family.
K. D. S.

7. Refer-a-friend scheme

The staff, from the receptionist to the surgeons were helpful, professional and friendly. The surgery wasn’t at all as scary or unpleasant as I had feared at all and on the day staff made me feel so safe and comfortable. I have no regrets whatsoever with choosing optilase or recommending it.
B. M.
I had a very professional experience getting laser eye surgery with Optilase, from the consultation appointment to the actually day of surgery. Everything was very well explained throughout. Definitely recommend.
B. B.
I’ve had a wonderful experience with Optilase. All of the staff in the clinic were brilliant, from the friendly ladies at reception to the optometrist who looks after my check ups to the surgeon and nurses on the day of surgery. They all made the surgery itself seems less daunting. The results have been incredible, I could see almost perfectly the following day. Four months later and my eyes have only gotten better. Laser eye surgery was without a doubt the best decision I have made. I am so happy I chose Optilase Laser Eye Clinic and would recommend them to everyone
C. M.
Couldn't recommend enough, my experience with optilase has been nothing short of amazing. I had considered laser eye surgery for years but was too apprehensive as I didn't directly know anyone who had done it before. After seeing the testimonials of the treatment however I decided it was worth a try and it ended up being one of the best decisions of my life. The Optilase staff were all very reassuring and explained the procedure in such detail that I was very confident all would be well and in the end all went smoothly. I would recommend the treatment to anyone who has thought of it as it's a very simple and quick procedure.
E. A. O.
Everything is explained really well, all very professional and very quick. Staff are lovely. Vision is perfect now, couldn't be happier
M. S.
Great experience getting lasik at optilase. Process felt very thorough and the surgery itself was a total breeze. My vision was perfect within a day, couldn't believe how quick the recovery was.
J. H.
A phenomenal service from first to final consultation. Have recommended them to many friends and family and would recommend them to anyone, even just looking for some information. Can't speak highly enough of them
S. Q.
Everything from initial consultation to follow up after care couldn't have been more thorough and reassuring! So glad I did this when I did , im just sorry I didn't go for it sooner!
S. R.
Had an excellent experience with Optilase. From the first appointment everything was explained to me in full detail and all the staff were super helpful and a pleasure to deal with! My vision is perfect now one month on and I have no issues at all
I. F.
Had my surgery a week ago and it was the best decision I've ever made. The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and informative. The surgery itself was quick and painless and I couldn't recommend them enough.
K. N.
Amazing to see the benefits from the surgery, definitely the best thing I have ever done! Staff and everything were lovely, an overall great experience
N. K.
I got Lasik last November, I had my 3 month check up recently and was told my eyesight is better than 20/20, healing is really good. From the initial consultation to my recent check up, the staff have been fantastic, the surgery itself was great, much less invasive that I expected. Everything was explained to me by each member of staff at each stage, so I wasn't nervous at all for the surgery. It's weird to say it, but I actually enjoyed the experience, I would have no issues getting the surgery again. Fantastic team, care, I'm just sorry I didn't get it done sooner. Highly recommended it, if you're unsure, book a consultation, see for yourself. I'll never look back now. Thanks Optilase.
A. K.
Got lasik done at Optilase a month ago and honestly can’t believe I ever wore glasses and contacts. Not only was the procedure quick and painless, any staff member I met was so lovely and had your best interests at heart. I would 100% recommend anyone considering lasik to go here!
M. K.
I found the staff and the care provided to be excellent. Every aspect from pre-op, to on the day of the procedure and post-op, any query I've had has been taken on board. Understandably with any procedure there are some nerves involved and each member of staff I spoke to was reassuring and easy to be in their presence. Most importantly I have found the standard of clinical care to be excellent and you are provided with everything you need to ensure that you have the safest recovery and optimal healing for the best results.
C. W.
Attended Optilase Cork for surgery. Couldn't recommend enough! Lovely people to deal with, wonderful aftercare. I would definitely recommend it to anyone!
A. H.
My experience with Optilase was better than I ever could have expected. The optometrists and surgeons were incredibly friendly, and explained the procedure (and it's risks and benefits) very clearly, at the free consultation and again on the day of the surgery. Their expertise and experience was very reassuring and they continue to provide comprehensive aftercare. My surgery went perfectly and my vision is 20/20. I wish I had done it sooner!
F. L.
Hi,
I recently had PR-K surgery done. From the start of the process from first consultation with Marie in Limerick to the surgery and post op I was astounded by the quality of care and friendly welcoming staff. I felt very comfortable prior to the surgery as the staff in the Dublin surgery showed great compassion and empathy to settle my nerves. As regards the surgery itself and my sight it is as if I have gone from an old box television to a brand new HD Flat screen TV. I am more comfortable as I can now see detail and no longer need glasses to drive, watch tv or converse with people. All round best decision Iv made with regard to my health and lifestyle!
E. M.
Staff was so friendly and reassuring, had a wonderful experience! Will reccommend this clinic to everyone! My eyesight is unreal! 👁👁
S. H.
Excellent service by all staff at Optilase and absolutely delighted with the results of my Laser. Would absolutely recommend to anybody!
M. M.
I had iDesign PRK done the end of 2020. After having glasses the majority of my life I decided to get it done, mainly for riding my motorbike and scuba diving. No contacts or steamiled up glasses or prescription lenses is fantastic. The team are very professional, the procedure is quick and painless, the recovery not so much. The PRK was slow healing, irritating and vision improved slowly, it can be frustrating but after a couple of weeks my vision is excellent, better than when I was using lenses and is still improving. Would recommend laser eye surgery and optilase to anyone.
S. K.
I am so happy I finally but the bullet and got laser eye surgery! It was 100% worth it. I was quite nervous but the staff made me feel so at ease especially Amy! She was so lovely and helpful. Dr. Antonio did my surgery and I found him very through with the consultation beforehand. I would recommend Optilase to anyone thinking about getting it done. From the consultation to the surgery and the aftercare they were A1 to deal with! I am so thankful!
L. H.
My experience with Optilase was fantastic. I was initially quite apprehensive about getting laser eye surgery but from my very first consultation I felt reassured and had full confidence in the team. The procedure itself was really quick and the results have been amazing. I have been particularly impressed with the aftercare. A thorough aftercare plan is explained, several checkup consultations and all drops necessary provided. Although i didn’t need to, it was very reassuring to know there is a 24 hour number you can call if you have any issues or concerns. I would absolutely recommend Optilase.
M. M.
Thank you very much Optilase to make me free from glasses !! Thank you all staff who look after me ,you are simply amazing 😍. Lasik was the best treatment for my eyes , fast recovery and my vision is perfect now . Highly recommend to anyone who think about laser treatment ;)
R.
Excellent service, experienced staff, would highly recommend. I had my Lazik surgery last month, woke up next day as a new man after 25 years of wearing glasses. 20/20 vision again. All medicine and after service included. thank you!
A. D.
Such fantastic service. My eyesight was really bad -8 in each eye with a -4.25 assitigmatism so it was utterly life changing to have my sight restored. I got my surgery when the country was in lockdown but the team were extremely safe and professional throughout the whole experience. I can't recommend them enough and just wish I had done it sooner, but hindsight is 20/20 and now I am too :)
A. J.
I highly recommend Optilase from start to finish they were great everybody was so nice and helpful able to answer all your questions and put you at ease, I had the lasik surgery it was so quick and the following day I had perfect vision.
m. f.
Great service from start to finish very reassuring if your a little bit nervous. The aftercare is very good also. If anybody is interested in gettin laser eye surgery I'd highly recommended optilase.
C. D.
I had my surgery a month ago. Absolutely delighted with the results, wish I had done it sooner. The staff are excellent, all of my questions answered at all stages and they really look after you from the first consultation to your post-op checkups. Would definitely recommend!
A. O. B.
Such a fantastic experience from start to finish. The service + team are exceptional. Having worn glasses for most of my life to now having 20/20 vision is incredible.
R. C.
Optilase is an amazing company with brilliant staff that put you at ease from your first consultation right through to your surgery day and beyond..
R. W.
Absolutely delighted with whole experience - absolutely life changing. Whole process is handled so well and staff are brilliant and so professional. Couldn't recommend Optilase enough for anyone considering (I had LASIK at end of 2020)
E. M.
My experience from start to finish was outstanding.
The friendly professional staff put you at ease instantly, working around you and promptly handling any concern you may have.
I chose to have surgery in order to compete in motor sports. I contacted Optilase and they made the whole process so easy and simple.
I feel as if I have a new lease of life, having laser eye surgery has been the best decision I have ever made. I only wish I done it sooner!
F. 1.
Had 2 consultations before my laser treatment. Got my eye reshaping procedure done last week. Back this Saturday to get them checked. The service given is second to none, an excellent service and well worth the money. The staff are excellent and welcoming also(Eamon Fitzsimons)
M. J.
I couldn’t recommend Optilase enough: they are the best team of dedicated professionals I have ever met. From consultation through the surgery to aftercare, the knowledgeable, kind and supportive team at the clinic made the whole process as smooth and as stress-free as possible. The receptionists helped with the appointments and last-minute questions, and they put me at ease right before the procedure; the consultants examined my eyes thoroughly and explained the whole process well; and the surgeon and all the ophthalmic nurses did a fantastic job on the day. Thank you!
E. M.
For anybody unsure whether to go ahead with laser or where to go I would highly recommend Optilase. I was extremely nervous before I went in, however looking back I really don't know what I was even worried about.. All the staff in there were very helpful and I felt very safe in their capable hands. I really couldn't fault anything from their covid procedures right down to their aftercare. It has been the best money I have ever spent & would encourage anyone who was unsure to just go ahead with it. The only thing I regret is not getting it done sooner!
Z. B.
My experience with Optilase was excellent. The procedure and the care that they provided before, during and after surgery was second to none. I simply cannot recommend their service enough.
C. M.
5 stars is not high enough to rate them. Amazing & efficient service in every single department. I was a nervous wreck going into surgery and they were so re-assuring and ut went without a hitch. Very clear and concise information for after care. I would highly recommend choosing Optilase. Thank you very much.
L. L. C.
Honestly wish I had done this years ago. Delighted with my results and the team couldn’t have been more helpful and professional every step of the way and afterwards. Thank you all so much. Couldn’t recommend them enough.
s. C.
From start to finish it was brilliant all staff so kind and helpful and to have 20/20 vision is amazing thanks to all at Belfast Optilase
R. V.
Got laser eye surgery in late 2019 and way easy at every step, would recommend 100% worth it!
M. O. L.
I had a great experience with Optilase. Everything was clearly explained and all my questions answered. I was very at ease going for the surgery, I've had no issue with my recovery and best of all my eyesight is now perfect!
F. C.
From the onset it was quick and easy to book an appointment. The free consultation gave all the info I needed on top of what I researched myself. I opted for the less popular PRK option due to my own needs. Surgery went well, after care was great with a very useful hotline that I made use of for some reassurance during the healing process. One month clear now and 20/20 vision with a little healing left to though over the next couple months.
R. C.
10/10 (or should I say 20/20)! Consultation was really thorough and detailed, left feeling confident I knew everything I needed to know ahead of the surgery. Was given recommendations on how to prep my eyes for surgery so that I would have the best possible result and my eyes were in the best condition they could be. The Optilase team took such good care of me the day of the surgery. The surgery itself was so quick and started to feel like myself again just a few hours later. By the next morning I felt great and could see almost perfectly less than 24hrs later. Following my check up the next day I was told my vision was already better than 20/20. Can’t recommend Optialse enough! Should have gotten Lasik sooner!
D. N. A.
I have wanted to do laser eye surgery for the longest time as I hated wearing glasses but never found the right moment. Finally seized a gap in work and education life at the end of last year and I havent looked back since. The procedure itself was so quick and easy and the staff are so friendly and explained everything thoroughly. My recovery was very fast, literally after 3 hours I had no pain at all. I can't even remember back to my vision before laser. Probably one of the best decisions ever made and money well spent
A. D.
I had a great good experience in the Limerick clinic with Marie . She has been excellent from day one, very friendly and eager to help. The only reason I am giving a low rating is because i was booked in for Cork for my surgery. I was then cancelled And moved to an appointment in Dublin. This was ok as I had gotten another appointment and was ready to pay when I was called on Saturday 2 days before my surgery to say the surgeon would not operate on me . I asked why and was told the surgeon didn’t think I was a suitable candidate ? This worried me and thought there was something wrong with my eyes after he say my scans . I was there was no point in calling back as the surgeon would be in surgery for the next 2 days and I would not be able to talk to him . Marie again called me and was so kind . She took a look at my scans and reassured me everything was ok . She called the clinic in Cork and they squeezed me in . I was considering not getting the surgery as it was a lot of money and this was my 3rd attempt . I was treated so well in the cork clinic . It was all very clean and safe even with COVID 19. Now 7 months on it was the best decision I’ve made to get it done .

I can’t fault Optilase at all. I was thoroughly impressed throughout the process of getting surgery 4 weeks ago and most importantly have perfect vision again after wearing glasses for 15 years. It took a couple of weeks for my eyes to heal and really settle down but I have consistent 20/15 vision now.
The surgery was no more than 15 minutes in total for both eyes. It wasn’t the most enjoyable 15 minutes of my life but would happily do it again. There was no pain during the surgery, but the 3-4 hours following it were quite painful. I would recommend strong painkillers or sleeping tablets after. Immediately my vision was much better but it did take time to settle down so bear that in mind if getting it done. I felt that the surgeon was highly experienced and knew what he was doing. I also have to complement the optometrists who explained everything in detail in the initial consultations and after the surgery. They were amazing.
I would highly recommend getting the procedure done, it’s well worth the money and I would happily recommend Optilase to anyone.
The only thing I would say to those getting LASIK is that it can take longer to go back to work than suggested. I was told most get the procedure done on a Friday and return the work on a Monday. This was not possible in my case as I couldn’t focus on my laptop at all (software engineer) for at least a week. YMMV
M. Q.
Very professional and meticulous patient care. Was extremely happy with the service provided. Best decision I ever made!
R. O.
Fantastic experience. I was extremely nervous to have the laser eye surgery but the staff from my initial phone call up to meeting the optometrist and the surgeon put me at ease. They answered all of my questions and concerns and would only proceed with the surgery once I was happy to do so. You are in really good hands when you choose this company for your surgery. 5 star service! Thank you Optilase!

Couldn’t be happier with my experience with Optilase. I had to wear contact lenses for years and was always too nervous to get laser done but I am so glad that I did and couldn’t be happier with the results. The day of the surgery I was made feel completely at ease by all of the staff at Optilase and couldn’t believe how quick the whole procedure was. By the evening of the surgery my vision had majorly improved and by the next morning my vision was perfect! I couldn’t believe how painless the whole experience was and don’t know how I didn’t get it done sooner!
G. O.
I have needed glasses/contacts for 19 years I often contemplated getting laser done but was always afraid. A friend told me about Optilase and told me about her experience, so after hearing how good her results were I decided to book a consultation which is free. From the first consultation at Optilase all the staff were so friendly and very thorough with explanations and tests. I booked in for surgery 2 weeks later I was so anxious the thoughts of all the ‘what ifs’ but I arrived for surgery and again everyone was so friendly and I was reassured. Surgery was so quick and easy , nothing what my mind had concocted or envisioned. Before I knew it the operation was complete and I could already see a difference. I am not even at the 24hours after stage and the results are amazing I feel like a new person. After all these years of needing glasses or contacts all I regret is not getting it done sooner. I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone contemplating getting this life changing procedure. Thank you so much to such an incredible team.

My whole experience Optilase was nothing short of excellent. Every employee I dealt with was courteous, professional and caring. The operation was swift and I was made feel very comfortable from the moment I arrived.
N. K.
The whole process was so smooth, especially on the day of the surgery. The staff were so friendly from the girls at reception to the staff in the surgery room. They kept me very calm and reminded me that it was just another day in the office for them. I couldn’t believe how quick the actual procedure was, you go in with your vision impairment and come out with 20 20. Mental. Why wouldn’t you do it!!? Money was always the issue for me, that’s why I put it on the long finger for years, but Optilase have an option where you can pay in monthly instalments so now laser eye is affordable too!!! Do ittttt!!! Highly recommend :)
M. D.
I should have done this ages ago! The overall procedure was about 15 minutes. The staff were very friendly and always available to answer any question. Would highly recommend.
S. W.
So easy and pain free, couldn’t recommend the clinic more for lasik!
L. F.
My experience with Optilase was incredible, they were so professional and helpful throughout the whole process, social distancing measures were put in place and everyone in the faculty was extremely friendly.
C. A.
Couldn’t be happier with my experience! I had PRK done and felt comfortable there from the very beginning. All of the staff and doctors are so nice and helpful throughout the whole process and I highly recommend going here. The procedure itself was so quick and easy. I had a bit of discomfort a few days after but it was manageable and completely worth it. I’m 3 months out from my procedure and my vision is perfect and just have some occasional dryness. It’s made such a difference in my day to day life and is highly recommend it to anyone that’s considering having it done. Thanks guys!
T. Y.
I got my vision corrected at Optilase in Ely place, Dublin 2 a couple of years back. The service was very smooth and professional. Their customer care from initial consultation to post operation checks was excellent.
E. M.
Highly recommended!
Before taking such a decision I shopped around Dublin to find the best clinic to look after my eyes! Definitely Optilase has been my best choice! Staffs, consultants and surgeon were absolutely fantastic!
After few hours from the surgery I was already texting my friends and never felt better before.
On the perfect results, my friend decided to do the same after few months!
A year now’s gone and I think why I have not done this before?
C. C.
The whole process was so easy. Clear communication and instructions throughout, and excellent support. Everybody is very nice and I have no complaints. I’m recommending lasik to anybody who asks me now.
C. K.
I got Lasik eye surgery in December last. It is something I contemplated for a long time. The surgery was so quick I couldnt believe it. The next morning I had 20/20 vision. Highly recommend Optilase.
A. L.
Absolutely delighted with my experience with Optilase! Best thing I did in 2020! I was really nervous about the procedure & the people I dealt with really put me at ease particularly those I dealt with on the day of my PRK surgery. Thanks a million!
S. O.
I had lasik eye surgery with Optilase last weekend and I couldn’t be happier with my results. It really is life changing! I had my free consultation and my surgery at the Dublin clinic at Ely Place. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. The consultation was informative and the process was explained very well. The team in reception are very welcoming and informative also. Communication is excellent, Optilase rang me a few times to confirm appointments and were on hand to answer any questions I had.
My surgeon put my mind at ease prior to my surgery (which lasted about a minute!) ! I didn’t feel a thing! My eyes did sting once the anaesthetic drops wore off after the surgery so my advice would be take a painkiller straight after surgery! I took mine a tad bit late (my own fault!) and suffered unnecessarily! Get home to bed and off with the lights as soon as you can. Rest is key and taking the eye drops, which provided some much needed relief also! After a few hours I began to feel like myself again. I had a check up the next day with my surgeon to make sure everything was ok. I have my second check up tomorrow. The aftercare is fantastic. Optilase provide a wonderful service all round. I only wish I had done it sooner!
I also got €100 off my bill from a friend referral which is a nice discount.
All in all I’m one very pleased customer! I achieved more than 20 20 vision so I couldn’t be happier. Thank you to everyone in the Dublin Clinic, you were truly amazing to deal with Optilase! I highly recommend Optilase if you’re considering laser eye surgery!
B. B.
Best decision I ever made, wish I had done it sooner. Team are very professional from start to finish and provide great support.

Optilase review by Cheryl Boardman Doyle September 2019.
I had my laser eye surgery in April 2019 and it has dramatically changed my life!
All the staff are extremely efficient, friendly, knowledgeable and go above and beyond to make you feel at ease.
The procedure itself was painless and the aftercare was second to none.
I would recommend Optilase to anyone thinking about better vision.
d. k.
Top class personal customer service from start to finish. All the staff are excellent. The customer care and attention given to the customer at all times is brilliant. The PRK procedure is painless. The aftercare was easy to manage and to be honest pain free. I would 100% recommend Optilase to anyone thinking of laser eye surgery.
B. B.
Choosing Optilase was one of the best decisions I have made.
All the staff were so kind and helpful in every step of the way.
The whole process was very quick and not as scary as I had thought it would be.
If I had to do it all over again I would definitely choose Optilase again.
L. D.
My experience with Optilase was amazing! The whole process was so quick and easy. From the receptionist to the surgeon all of the staff are incredible helpful and made me feel very welcome and comfortable. I would highly recommend, don't hesitate its a life changing experience :)
O. M.
I was nervous about the surgery but it's grand and over in 7 minutes! Everyone in Optilase was phenomenal - very friendly and professional. They are experts in their field and I can highly recommend you choose them for Laser Eye Surgery. Now I no longer have glasses and it's life changing - be brave, do it!
C. M.
Brilliant experience; lovely staff, great aftercare & most of all my vision is now perfect! Wishing I did this sooner!! Thank you optilase.
R. C.
With out a doubt one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! Such a relief not having to depend on glasses or contacts to be able to see, procedure was done in seconds, and the staff and surgeon at Optilase couldn’t of been more helpful
E. R.
Had a fantastic experience with optilase. From all the pre care, the procedure and aftercare, I couldn't fault them. Two years on from surgery now and eyesight is still perfect!
B. S.
They were very attentive when I went in for laser eye surgery. The nurses and doctors alike were very helpful with my queries and my treatment process. Best decision I've ever made!
T. V.
As a guy that just went through the surgery, let me tell ya it was the best thing that ever happened to me. There are no words to actually express how good optilase was with my eyes Thank you! For everything.
J. D.
I had a very positive experience from start to finish. I was very shortsighted before surgery and was fully reliant on glasses/contact lenses - I am now one month post surgery and have perfect vision and experiencing no problems with dry eye or glare - Could not recommend Optilase highly enough!
M. M.
I fully recommend Oplilaze for laser eye surgery! From the first appointment I felt secure and confident that they would look after and care for me. Every follow up appointment was thorough and any concerns were addressed and I felt comfortable with the treatment and follow up care! I opted for laser as I was getting married I wanted to be glasses free for my wedding day! Approx one year from the surgery I had my big day a month ago and it was the most perfect day! One important component to me was that I had my laser surgery done and could see my gorgeous groom waiting on the top on the aisle for me!
Thanks to everyone in optilaze Dublin for changing my life! All the best!

While I was happy with the end product of my surgery and now 20/20 vision, personally I felt I could have had a better overall customer experience. My surgery and dealings with Optilase took place in their Dublin buildings.
I went with PRK surgery. Recovery was nearly 5 days before I started to feel better and able to see under bright lights.
It was about 2 weeks before I really noticed full effects.
My initial consult was definitely my best experience back in June 2019. The optician from Galway who came up to help was fantastic on the day.
I was a little confused with their advertisement as it states €500 off laser eye surgery. Picture included.
However, you may get €500 off surgery if you choose to give up your lifetime guarantee on your surgery. Hardly a trade off that makes you want to give up €500.
I took time to make my decision and called back a few days later and decided to go with it as I was under a little bit of time pressure to get this done during the summer.
My surgery took place at the end of July. Before my surgery on the day I did find one friend whom had surgery with Optilase so to take €100 off for the friend referral. They found his file.
Optilase were not very generous with putting this through on my final payment. I only noticed this on my post week referral that they hadn't put this through and questioned why. They said it was too late even though I was promised it wasn't an issue.
On the day of my surgery the optician who checked my eyes could have been better with her eye test instructions. She didn't communicate clearly when she wanted my eyes open etc and got frustrated if I blinked at the incorrect time.
My post-op care I thought Optilase were very stringent with the amount of eye drops they would give. I was questioned on how I had used up so much eye-drops rather than be given it to make the recovery easier.
I have yet to receive the cheque promised from Optilase for the €100 friend referral even though I got my friend to email Optilase to get the issue resolved.
s. m.
Highly reccomend optilase for laser eye treatment, a year later and it was the best decision i ever made. No more glasses or contact lenses. Staff are lovely and very helpful
J. M.
Got lasik eye surgery at Optilase in January 2020. Really positive experience, staff are so lovely and really put you at ease. Fantastic to finally get rid of the glasses
C. H.
I had a great experience at Optilase and I'm delighted with the results. It's been 6 months since my LASIK surgery and from the initial consultation to the aftercare I couldn't fault the staff, they were so friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Optilase to family and friends.
L. M.
This was the best decision I've made. I woke up this morning after the surgery and was able to see! The staff were incredibly helpful, friendly and professional and explained each step as I went along. I would recommend optilase to anyone wanting to discuss laser eye treatment. I couldn't recommend them higher
H.
I had my surgery in June 2018 and I would absolutely recommend to anyone to come to Optilase if they’re considering it for themselves!
From the initial consultation to the follow up appointments, the staff were superb! They are friendly and professional and really put me at ease about the procedure (which is so quick, it’s over before you know it).
If you’re even slightly considering getting laser, book in your consultation here!!
S. M.
I can’t recommend optilase enough, the team at the cork clinic were so reassuring and professional. After the surgery the after care was second to none. It’s been a life changing experience dealing with optilase and if I could give 6 stars I would. If anyone wants a referral give me dm and you will get €100 off your procedure☺️
D. H.
I had LASIK surgery with Optilase in August 2018 at their Ely Place clinic in Dublin and I am delighted with the results.
My vision was -1.50 in both eyes and now my vision is 30:20, much better than 20:20!! From initially getting in contact I knew Optilase were for me. Claire and Amy at reception made booking my appointments no problem at all and always fitted appointments round what suited me.
Linda who I met at the initial consultation and for my check-ups after surgery was fantastic. During the consultation everything was explained and I learnt so much about my eyes and how they function. I left with no questions unanswered and if I had any after I could always ring. On the day of surgery it was so quick and never felt any pain. All you have to do is lie there looking at a flashing orange light in the distance and there's a gentle brush over your eye. Each eye is done separately and takes around 5 minutes per eye.
Afterwards my eyes were slightly stinging and somewhat blurry vision. Gillian and all the aftercare team were amazing after surgery. My eyes stung slightly for about 4hrs after surgery and watered a bit, but I slept for a few hours on the way home and when I got home. When I woke the stinging was all gone and my vision was perfect, even better than what i would of had wearing my glasses previously.
I went back the next day for my post-op appointment and my eyes were healing perfectly and my vision had reach 30:20 in less than 24 hours after surgery!
Anyone considering laser eye surgery, I would definetly recommend Optilase. The whole team at Optilase really care for and look after you, my experience was very positive and you really can "see the difference" after surgery. Thanks again Optilase!
Update; Over 1 year on and all my check-ups with Optilase and my vision still is perfect. I still stick by my decision to recommend Optilase and still so glad I went ahead with having laser eye surgery.
A. O.
I was very nervous about having the surgery but I would recommend it to absolutely anyone! I found the staff at Optilase to be excellent from day one. My initial consultation was very informative, the receptionists were always kind and helpful and on the day of the surgery itself, the staff couldn't have been kinder - they had me completely at ease during the surgery, so much so that I was chatting during it! The surgery is only seven minutes per eye (I had the LASIK treatment) and the results are amazing - I had better than 20/20 vision the morning after the surgery. My tip for anyone getting treatment would be to do the same as me and book your appointment first thing at 8am in the morning as it prevents waiting around - I was in and out in under an hour an a half.
y. f.
Optilase is a really an excellent clinic.I can’t fault it at all. I was thoroughly impressed throughout the process of getting surgery 1 weeks ago and most importantly start having good vision after wearing glasses for 25 years.
the staff was excellent .thanks God for choosing this clinic
I. F.
An amazing experience. Could not recommend it enough. Experienced no pain and could see perfectly the next morning. The procedure was fast and the friendly staff had me at ease for the entire duration of the journey.
A. O. R.
Great experience at optilase. Went from a very strong prescription to better than 20/20 vision in less than a week and I don't know myself. The staff were all very professional and friendly and would definitely recommend optilase to anyone looking into laser eye surgery.
M. F.
All the staff at Optilase were so helpful and welcoming. I wouldn’t go back to glasses. It was so worth it!!! Optilase made it a lovely experience.
D. W.
Great experience with Optilase. I've had my eye sight corrected for over a year now and have absolutely no regrets. It was one of the best decisions I've made and Optilase made it a great process. The staff were incredibly friendly and supportive.
C. J.
The most covid-compliant and straight-forward process. The staff were incredibly helpful and provided in-depth details on each step which I greatly appreciated. The after-care is particularly comforting as there are quick follow up appointments to ensure everything is healing smoothly. I would definitely recommend!
P. F.
The whole experience from consultation to surgery was extremely successful and am very happy with the outcome of the surgery. I highly recommend Optilase to anyone thinking of laser eye surgery in the future.
M. Q.
I had laser eye surgery carried out by Optilase in November and only four weeks on from it, I cannot believe how much of a success it was. It was the best decision I made. The procedure itself is very straight forward and pain free.
R.
Really great experience. The staff are clear and put you at ease. The results are life changing. I recommend highly.
M. F.
I am now one year post getting laser eye surgery and I can’t recommend it enough! I have had no problems with my eyes from day one and the results are life changing!
I have now have better than 20:20 vision who knew that was possible in less than 12 minutes!
The team at optilase Ely are amazing and kept me at ease.
For anyone thinking about getting laser eye surgery I say go it for at optilase you wont regret it
E. O.
Everyone at Optilase was a pleasure to deal with. Everyone I talked to at the clinic from the receptionist to the surgeon went above and beyond. They made the process so easy and put me at ease. I would recommend them to anyone considering laser eye surgery.
C. H.
Went for Lasik last Thursday. All the staff were great, so welcoming and brilliant at making you feel comfortable. The surgery was quick and painless, vision is better than 20:20 now. To anyone thinking about getting laser eye surgery done - do it! I wish I did it sooner.
A. A.
Highly recommend Optilase! Everyone was so friendly and professional, and made sure I was comfortable and well informed throughout the entire process. My Lasik procedure went smoothly, with no pain and very fast recovery time.
I. T.
I had a great experience with Optilase and their team of absolutely lovely people. Very informative and the post op care is second to none. I was a little nervous about the surgery at first but now I'm so happy I went through with it.
E. D.
As I sit here a year on from my surgery I am so thankful I went through with my operation.
I could not recommend optilase more.
From my first consultation to my discharge appointment they have been amazing.
The procedure is over within minutes and pain free.
If you are thinking about laser eye surgery I would recommend optilase.
E. J. H.
I can't give a more glowing recommendation for a service I've ever received. I had PRK preformed last 6 days ago and am delighted with the results.
I initially met Emer at Optalise for my free consultation and was treated so well, had a wide variety of eye exams preformed and had both procedures explained to me clearly. Booking my procedure was very quick and at a convenient time for me. On the day of the procedure, another optometrist Aoife preformed the whole suite of eye exams again, I spoke with the surgeons before the surgery and a nurse regarding my after care. During the procedure the nurse kept me informed at all times what was happening to me. I felt completely at ease. I felt no pain or discomfort. I was provided with all the drops required to use afterwards and after 5 days had my contacts taken out.
The staff here are excellent, extremely professional and friendly. I am currently recommending everyone I know to come here for laser eye surgery.
K. F.
Very professional service with a touch of human quality. All questions I had prior and after the surgery were answered completely. Any time I needed extra drops or information they are only a call away. I would highly recommend Optilase. Completely worth of the price I paid.
c. c.
I had my surgery done back in June and I have to say, it was the best decision I've ever made. On the day of my surgery I was so nervous but the minute I arrived at Optilase they made me feel so relaxed. All the staff are so nice and very professional. I was literally 10 minutes getting my surgery and didn't feel a thing. The next day after the surgery I felt fine and was able to see EVERYTHING so clear, it was amazing!! I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone considering getting it done.
J. D.
All staff very friendly and helpful surgery was a complete success and excellent aftercare, highly recommend
m. k.
Firstly the consultation was great, it really goes through everything and anything you may have worries about. I find optilaze very efficient and well run. My surgery went great. I was sore for the next couple days but the pain is well worth the outcome. I have referred 4 people. For every person you refer you retrieve 100 euro and so does the person you referred. I have just had my 3 month check up and my vision and eyes have healed perfectly. Thank you Optilaze. The staff are brilliant.
M. W.
Was absolutely the best decision I have ever made. The staff couldn't do enough for me from the moment I stepped in for my consultation. I'm one week from surgery and I feel amazing I have 20/20 vision and I'm glasses free. Cannot reccomend optilase enough amazing treatment and amazing staff.
S. M.
I couldn't recommend Optilase enough! From the initial consultation to the aftercare they were outstanding. All of the staff put me so at ease from start to finish and the Optometrists answered all of my questions from day 1. The surgeon was also very calming and approachable! 10/10 for these guys.
M. O.
From start to finish the staff were amazing. Everything was explained in full and I had no hesitation with going forward with my Lazer Eye Surgery. On the day the staff made me feel so comfortable and the nurse even held my hand the whole way through the procedure. I could not be any happier with my results, I am loving been glasses free and I would without hesitation recommend Optilase to any of my friends or family considering laser eye surgery.
S. O.
I can highly recommend Optilase clinic for eye laser treatment, very professional and appointments are made to suit people travelling long distances. Treatments are explained very well and made feel totally at ease, even for a nervous patient like myself! Do yourself a favour and book your consultation, you might see clearly (like me) for the first time in a long time!
E. M.
Really great service and great staff in Dublin and Galway clinics, always felt reassured and everything went perfectly and my sight is 100%. Definitely the best money I’ve ever spent.
A. T.
Had my surgery 3 months ago in Dublin, and everything went well! I have better than 20/20 vision 😍 the team was very kind and helpful; they answered any questions I had and reassured me a lot during the surgery.
They are also very helpful with the post-OP care, you can book an appointment if you feel worried at all 😁
M. M.
My experience was great with Optilase, the staff were exceptional and very hands on when it came to making me feel welcome and comfortable before and after my surgery. Im so glad i went with Optilase for my laser eye surgery and my only regret was not doing it sooner !
T. J.
I had LASIK surgery with optilase, the process was well explained, very fast and my anxiety taken care of during the surgery. Only 3 to 4 hours after the surgery I was able to see almost perfectly. There are regular checks before and after the surgery to make sure the surgery would be going forward and that the eyes are healing properly afterwards. I would definitely recommend optilase.
R. K.
My sister-in-law and I went for a free consultation, and we were both more than impressed. Very friendly and capable staff dealt with us as per appointment schedule and with great professionalism. My optical issues were explained very clearly to me (which is no easy task), and while I could have opted for laser treatment, I was told that it would be more beneficial for me to wait 18 months. A very different experience from the "sell sell sell" I have experienced at other optician outlets. Will be very happy to return when the treatment better suits my eyesight condition. I would highly recommend a visit, especially in the knowledge that you won't be sold something you don't need.
T. C. (. C.
Have always been curious about getting the procedure done as I have required glasses for half of my life and wanted to free myself of them.
Booked in and seen within a week and 2 weeks later I got the procedure(PRK).
The staff were excellent and reassured me the the whole way which was exactly what I needed as I have always been squeamish when it comes to anything to do with eyes.
Can honestly say it was the best decision I've made. Within a week I had 20/20 vision and one month on I have even better than that. With the lifetime cover(That comes with Optilase and no one else) I know that in the extremely unlikely event my vision ever becomes less than perfect that Optilase will top me up free of charge.
Can't recommend it highly enough and always willing to refer others to help them get a little money off of what is already a reasonable price with great financing options.
Z. N.
Fantastic experience at Optilase. From the initial consultation to the surgery to the aftercare, all the staff at the clinic have been so friendly and professional throughout.
A. K.
All I can say is don’t wait, just go for it if you’re suitable for treatment. I wasted years agonizing over whether to take the chance. I’m SO happy with my results. I had PRK in Cork exactly one year ago and results are beyond fab. Everyday feels like a going out day because I was only able to tolerate contacts for short periods and was only glasses free for special occasions. Every day seems like a dressy up day now.
Optilase is so professional and the care both before and after has been nothing short of exceptional. Marie O’Keeffe looked after me in Limerick and she is superb and to Collette who is covering Marie’s maternity leave.
Again I can’t stress enough that I should have done it years ago.
G. C.
Easy process from start to finish. Nice staff , good follow up. Have recommended to friends and would do again.
m. m.
Absolutely fantastic experience from 1st consultation to after procedure care. Highly recommend Optilase clinic. Enjoying my improved vision and no glasses 😉
M. C.
Fantastic experience from initial consultation to surgery. Staff made me feel at ease the whole way through. Still can't believe I can see without reaching for my glasses. My only regret is that I didn't get it done sooner with Optilase! Thank you!
T. B.
Really great service start to finish, everyone made me feel at ease and I didnt have to worry about a thing! I was super nervous on the day but the staff were lovely and great at relaxing me, answering any questions I had. Would really recommend!
R. L.
Had Laser Eye Surgery done at Optilase. Every member of staff from the minute you walk in are professional and friendly and make the whole experience an easy one. They help settle any nerves you have. The laser itself is over before you know it. Couldnt recommend Optilase enough
s. f.
I couldn't be happier with the whole experience. From the free consultation to the follow up appointments after the surgery and everything in between the staff were amazing. They guide you through every step and give such great reassurance when you need it most. The detail sheet of what to expect after the surgery is bang on which have me great peace of mind while I was recuperating.
A. F.
True professionals. Eyesight has been perfect for 4 years now. Would recommend
C. C.
My experience of undergoing laser eye surgery with Optilase has been truly amazing. The morning after the surgery I woke up and was able to see without glasses for the first time since I was six years old! At my one-week check up I was told that I now have better than 20/20 vision, something I still can barely get my head around after spending most of my life absolutely dependent on glasses to see. I found all the staff at the Optilase clinic were so lovely and even when I got a little nervous during the procedure they were able to talk me through it in a kind and reassuring manner. I would recommend Optilase to anyone thinking of correcting their vision, I'm so glad I went for it and am looking forward to a future of seeing the world with my own eyes!
C. H.
Used contacts for 10years before my laser eye surgery, without a doubt laser was the best thing that ever happened to me, optilase were great to deal with and very friendly
A. O. B.
Optilase is a fantastic clinic, I have got my eyes complete over 15 months now and have never looked back. Couldnt reccokend them enough.
S. Z.
Got my eye laser surgey Yesterday in Optilase and they were absolutely brilliant. Very friendly welcoming and it takes 3 months to fully heal I can already see better than I have in years and that's within one day since my surgery. After care is a plus if you are weary or afraid to get it done you are guranteed the best results. I'd highly recommend it. Sue
S. N.
I put off having this procedure done for so many years out of fear. But I should have done it years ago. The whole experience was first class, everyone I met was so friendly and reassuring. 100% recommend Optilase.
S. V.
I had PRK laser eye surgery about 3 months and 2 weeks ago, and i can honestly say it has been life changing for the better. My eye sight is currently at 20/20. Before if i did not have glasses i could not read subtitles on TV or menus above the counter in cafés and restaurants, and everything at a distance was just a blur. I had a perscription of -1.50 on one eye and -1.75 on the other. The surgery itself was very fast and completly painless. Imediatly after the surgery i could see a signifigant improvement in vison from what it was, but i knew the best was yet to come. The first day was alright with no major disomfort it just felt better when i had my eyes closed so the rest of the day was spent relaxing and listening to music and audio tapes from online. On day 2 and 3 there was some discomfort but never to the point where it was unbarable, and was quickly relieved by over the counter pain medication. I noticed improvements every day and by day 6 my vision reached the legal requirements for driving. By day 10 i was able to return to work, and by week 2 i could go back to doing things like going to the gym and getting haircuts ect. By this point i was very happy with being able to see the world so clearly like never before even at 2 weeks post op. My vision got better every week gradually and before i knew it my eyesight reached the 20/20 mark. It is truley an amazing feeling to be able to wake up every morning and see everything so sharp and clear. The staff are very friendly, helpful and professional. I would highly reccomend Optilaise for anyone thinking of getting laser eye surgery done.

I had laser eye surgery with Optilase 2 weeks ago and I have to say its the best money I have ever spent. I was a bit nervous before surgery but the staff were so helpful and the procedure itself was painless and over in a matter in minutes. The next day I had 20/20 vision.
I found the Optilase staff very professional and would recommend them to any one thinking of laser eye surgery.

First class from the very first appointment. They have an amazing way to make you feel at ease and the procedure itself was much less stressful than I had built it up in my head. I’d highly recommend optilase.

From the initial consultation right through to the day of surgery everything was really easy. The staff are very nice and very professional. Plenty of information was given and I felt at ease all the way through. I cannot explain how quick and easy the surgery was, a slight bit of discomfort but nothing that major. It is definitely one of the best decisions I have made. 😊

From the moment I stepped into the clinic all the staff were so nice and made me feel so welcomed. Everyone was so friendly. I felt comfortable and at ease before the procedure. I would highly recommend Optilase to anyone thinking about it. It wasn’t scary at all and the results are life changing.

I recently had the LASIK treatment with Optilase and was very happy overall with the treatment. From the initial free consultation to the check ups afterwards, the whole experience was very straightforward. I found the staff to be very helpful and informative in all areas of the business from the moment I set foot in Reception right through to my after care check ups. I was also quite nervous about the getting the procedure done and the team could not have been more reassuring and kind. I would highly recommend Optilase to others and in fact I already have!

Have to say there was nothing to be nervous about after all. The staff are all so amazing and friendly and put you at ease. The procedure itself was over in about 3 minutes. Recovery the first day I'd say go to bed and set an alarm for drops every 2 hours coz your vision is blurry and your eyes are a bit uncomfortable (not sore though) and by the following day - voila! Perfect vision!!! Really can't recommend it highly enough. Aftercare is fab too - checks after a day, a week, a month, 3 months, a year - seriously good service all included!

One month today since my PRK surgery. I can not think of a single complaint during this entire experience. The whole team, from the girls at the front desk to Aoife my optometrist and my surgeon Dr. Eamonn Hyes, everyone has been extremely friendly and professional. Everything was so well explained and any questions I had were answered. I am delighted with the outcome of not having to wear glasses or contacts again. I could not recommend optilase highly enough. Thanks again to all the team.

Would highly recommend Optilase, from the first consultation to the follow up appointments the level of service and care has been second to none. Delighted with the outcome (No more glasses woohoo!) and now I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner!

I had the LASIK laser eye surgery with Optilase in February 2015! I was extremely nervous going in but the staff in there were great, really accommodating and couldn't recommend them enough! They were all so nice and really looked after me! I'd say the whole op took no more than 15mins... Best thing I have ever done and wish I had done it sooner! I had the surgery on Friday and back to work on Monday with no issues. I can't recommend Optilase enough :-)
