How much does the cost of laser vision correction increase if you want to have short-sightedness corrected together with astigmatism? Does mild eye dryness (more frequent blinking during the day) disqualify me from the procedure? If so, will I be permanently disqualified or can I undergo the surgery once the symptoms have been alleviated?

The price given in the pricelist, is the cost of the procedure performed on one eye, using a particular correction method. Laser vision correction corrects refractive errors such as short-sightedness, far-sightedness, astigmatism, and any combination of the above. There is no direct correlation between the severity or the type of error and the pricelist.

To assess your eligibility for the procedure and choose the most suitable correction method, the parameters of your cornea, including its shape and thickness, need to be checked. The cost of the preliminary qualifying examination is 300PLN, and the cost of the bilateral surgery (on both eyes) does not exceed 7000PLN. In the case of a one-day-procedure mode, the cost of the qualifying examination is deducted from the total cost of the bilateral procedure.

Advanced dry eye syndrome (DES) is a contraindication to the procedure.
Mild, sporadic eye dryness, e.g. caused by working on a computer or wearing contact lenses, does not constitute a problem. More information regarding DES is available in our article . During the qualifying examination, a doctor will verify whether you have dry eye syndrome and how serious it is.
