I got mine done in Optilase for 2995 for both eyes using the LASIK with Wavefront. Recovery time was <24 hrs, I havent regretted it at all
As above, you can claim tax back, but if you're with Vivas,(plan 2 or higher) they'll pay for the Wavefront part of the procedure.

Am I right in saying that Vivas only cover the procedure if done in Optilase and don't cover any other location?

Here's the price list I got from the Wellington Eye Clinic in the past 2 weeks:
Initial assessment €100 (wiill be deducted from treatment cost)
Wavefront optimised Lasik/Lasek - €2050 per eye
Wavefront customised Lasik/Lasek - €2200 per eye.
Cost includes
post-op medication,
emergency post-op aftercare,
all aftercare visits for 24 months after treatment
a Lifetime Warranty (no extra fee for enhancement treatments).

No connection with clinic, other than a prospective customer.
 
the Vivas deal is only with Optilase. I have just had my yearly checkup and all is still as well as I had hoped for.

This might be of interest to people who are thinking about laser eye surgery.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I've attended the Wellington Eye Clinic, and have LASIK surgery scheduled for next week.

I got a call from the clinic yesterday to confirm the time, etc, and the staff told me that Quinn Healthcare are now covering some of the cost of the procedure there - to the tune of €600! Apparently Quinn started covering some laser eye procedures last month. The amount is the same as the VHI allowance in the Wellington clinic (i.e. 15% of the total cost - €4000).

Can't find any reference to the change in cover on Quinn HC website.
