Experience report by Nadja T., 5th June 2009
As I am very active in sports and travel frequently to Africa and Asia, and also enjoy visiting desert areas, I found glasses and contact lenses increasingly annoying. Additionally, I began to have more and more problems with my contact lenses due to long-term use. So, I decided to go for a preliminary examination with an ophthalmologist here in Switzerland. Unfortunately, it turned out that my cornea was too thin for LASIK, and only LASEK would be an option. After careful consideration, due to the typically longer healing process, I chose LASEK and booked through Swisslasik.
Since I had heard only positive things from several people in my circle of acquaintances, I decided to go for a laser surgery in Istanbul, as the price-to-performance ratio is unparalleled. My high expectations were exceeded by Swisslasik: highly professional, perfect service at the clinic, punctual transfers from the hotel to the clinic, and very friendly people. The laser surgery was completely painless and not uncomfortable at all. Despite having LASEK, where the vision reaches optimal quality only after about 7 days, I was able to explore Istanbul for three days. It is an absolutely fascinating and very clean city with interesting markets, outstanding cultural treasures, friendly people, and delicious food. The laser surgery has greatly improved my quality of life, and it still feels like a miracle to wake up in the morning and simply be able to see!
