Our laser eye surgery in Istanbul – report from Wednesday, November 28, 2007
My husband and I had been thinking for some time about getting rid of our glasses by having laser eye surgery. Unfortunately, this involves very high costs in Switzerland, especially when both spouses require visual correction. While searching online, we came across the Swisslasik website, which immediately caught our interest. We obtained references from other Swiss people, and all of them were completely convinced. Therefore, we contacted them straight away by email to get more detailed information and received prompt answers to every question. We eventually had the operation on 25 November in Istanbul. The flight, the operation, the hotel – everything was perfectly organised from start to finish. There was always someone nearby who could speak perfect High German or Swiss German with us, which was very reassuring. In addition, we met three other Swiss patients at the EyeStar Clinic who had their eyes lasered on the same day as us. This was highly motivating, and everyone supported one another in their decision. The preliminary examinations were carried out very thoroughly, and all the staff made a very good impression on us. Above all, it was fantastic that there were never any language problems. The transfer from the airport to the hotel, from the hotel to the clinic, and everything back again was also impeccable.
We are definitely glad that we dared to do it and overjoyed with the result for our eyes.
