WAVEFRONT LASEK SURGERY COST IN BIRMINGHAM
Better for thinner Corneas
One laser procedure
£1795
LASEK surgery, also known as advanced surface treatment, is a 2 stage laser eye surgery treatment using only the excimer laser. First, the surface skin (epithelial) layer of the cornea is loosened. Then the underlying surface is reshaped using an excimer vision correction laser. The treatment is quick but you recover slower than with LASIK surgery. It’s the best laser eye treatment for people with thin corneas & is also the best for some sports & occupations in Birmingham.
WAVEFRONT LASIK SURGERY COST IN BIRMINGHAM
Quickest vision recovery
Most popular vision surgery
Around for over 20 years
£1995
LASIK surgery is a blade-free laser eye surgery treatment & uses 2 different lasers. First, a thin window is created on the surface of your cornea using a femtosecond laser which is so accurate that each laser pulse lasts less than a billionth of a second. The window is opened & a second excimer laser accurately reshapes your cornea using precision optics & the window is closed. LASIK surgery is the best laser eye surgery procedure for a quick recovery. You can see the difference immediately & you can usually drive by the next day.

Why is the cost of laser eye surgery so high?
Let’s talk a bit more about the cost of laser eye surgery
Yes, it’s quite expensive — but that’s because the latest blade-free, wavefront-guided lasers are seriously advanced (and not cheap). You’re paying for precision, safety & long-term results.
So when you see super low prices advertised elsewhere, you’ve got to ask: how are they cutting corners?
Poor quality tech?
Unlikely. UK laser equipment is tightly regulated.
Classic upsell?
Probably. Those “too-good-to-be-true” prices are for lower tech laser treatments & minimal focus error eyes that hardly anyone wants treatment for. So, you show up for the deal & a salesperson (not a doctor) tells you, “You don’t qaualify but you deserve the best” — which just happens to cost £5,000. Sound familiar?
Hardly see the surgeon?
Yes, in some clinics, your surgeon sees you for a quick hello before the op — & that’s it. With us, it’s different. You’ll meet Mark Wevill before your treatment & see him for every check-up afterwards. He’s done over 10,000 procedures, taught other surgeons, published medical articles. He’s been trusted by doctors, optometrists, & nurses with their laser eye surgery.
We won’t lure you in with bargain-bin pricing or sales tactics. We just offer world-class laser eye surgery, transparency & time with your expert surgeon.
And yes, it costs more — but still way less than the lifetime cost of glasses & contacts. Plus: no fogged-up lenses, no dry contacts, no more hassle. Just clear vision, done right.
What are the alternatives to LASIK & LASEK laser eye surgery?
There are many vision correction treatments. Laser eye surgery is usually the best treatment for you if you are aged between 18 & 55. After the age of 55, lens replacement is usually the best vision correction solution. Take your self-test to find out which is best for you. Even better, book a consultation with our experienced laser eye surgeon in Birmingham so that together we can work out the best vision correction procedure for you or your loved one.
