Laser Eye Surgery (LASIK / LASEK / SMILE / PRK) in London Bridge — FAQs
How much does laser eye surgery cost in the UK?+
At our clinics, laser eye surgery starts at £2,000 per eye for standard LASIK and PRK, rising to around £2,400 per eye for wavefront-guided SMILE. The final quote is confirmed in writing after your consultation and never changes on the day of surgery.
Am I suitable for laser eye surgery?+
Most people aged 21–55 with a stable prescription for at least 12 months and a healthy cornea are suitable. A 60-minute consultation with full corneal topography and OCT scans confirms candidacy — if you're not suitable for laser, we'll explain what is (usually lens replacement).
Is laser eye surgery painful?+
No. Numbing drops make the treatment itself painless; most patients describe pressure but no pain. Mild grittiness for 4–6 hours afterwards is normal and settles overnight.
How long does laser eye surgery last?+
The corneal reshaping is permanent. Distance vision typically remains stable for decades; near-vision changes (presbyopia) still occur in your 40s and are addressed separately.
