What Irish private clinics typically charge
Private LASIK and SMILE in Irish commonly falls in the Often €4,500–€6,500+ surgery only range for both eyes — usually the surgical fee alone. Hotel, airport transfers, extended follow-up, and companion logistics are typically extra or not bundled.
Cataract with premium IOL: €3,500–€5,000+ per eye common per eye at many private centres — again before travel costs.

Common questions
Is Istanbul cheaper because equipment is older?
No. Our centre uses ZEISS, SCHWIND, and Alcon platforms matching leading private hospitals worldwide. Lower operating costs in Turkey — not lower device tier — drive package pricing.
