Friend of mine had it done in India, paid a fraction of what it cost over here. Can't remember how much exactly. He does however have the advantage of being Indian so speaks the lingo, etc.Originally posted by Weltchy View PostNo no no. My fiancee is having laser surgery to correct her vision. 25 minutes work for the consultant, £3400 for the lot. Take off the £400 for staffing, admin fees, etc, thats £3000 for half an hour rounded up, 6k an hour or 48k a day.
Procedure was sucessful and now doesn't need ordingary glasses. I think he still has to wear his readers though.Comment

It's just that in 20 years time, the scarring will completely blind him and he'll need new lenses.

That's fine. The NHS can pay for that. Just like it pays for breast enhancement reversals, sex change reversals, tattoo removals and all the other ill-conceived cosmetic work.Originally posted by Moscow Mule View PostIt's just that in 20 years time, the scarring will completely blind him and he'll need new lenses.

From any number of sites:Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostHow much does a check-up and scale cost if you are with the NHS?
If you are on benefits, such as Jobseeker's Allowance, the cost is £0.If you pay for NHS dental treatment, there are three standard charges. Note that you only pay one dental charge even if you need to visit more than once to complete a course of dentist treatment
