Some people consider having their laser eye surgery away from the UK. For some it is so they can have time to recuperate in the sunshine or just have the quiet time abroad. For others the price of laser eye surgery abroad may be cheaper than alternative options within the UK.
At Visualase we would always recommend looking for a clinic within the UK. There are excellent surgeons and technology available in the UK and with a little research, it is always possible to find a clinic/surgeon you are happy with.
One of the main reasons why we recommend having the surgery in the UK is that if a patient was to experience any problems or complications (however low the chances of that are) you really want to have that close contact with your treating surgeon and clinic, which would not be possible if you had the surgery abroad. At Visualase you have access to your surgeon which gives you a peace of mind not available in most other clinics.
