Fill out our online Consultation Form
This provides us with information about your prescription, your ocular health and your lifestyle.
Receive our surgeon’s recommendations
Using your Consultation Form, our surgeons make a preliminary assessment of your suitability for laser eye surgery and the best procedure for you.
Discuss with our staff
Kristýna, our optometrist, will discuss the surgeon’s feedback with you and help you come to an informed decision about your procedure.
Arrange your trip
We will help you choose the best flights, arrange your transfers and ensure that you’re in great accommodation. We can also talk to you about the many beautiful sights in Prague that you’ll be able to enjoy after your procedure!
Make your trip
Our UK representative, is a regular traveller to Prague. Throughout your trip, if you have any concerns or problems, just give him a call.
Arrive at the clinic
Your optometrist will conduct a full eye examination with you to check your general eye health, natural vision and verify your prescription. We will also discuss your reasons for choosing to undergo surgery and discuss your expectations. Understanding your needs in combination with the data gathered at this stage ensures that we recommend the right procedure for you.
We check the following during this exam:
It is sometimes necessary for your optometrist to place some drops in your eyes to dilate your pupils. This allows them to look at your eyes in greater detail. This may cause your vision to become slightly blurry and your eyes sensitive to light. It’s nothing to worry about and your eyes will return to normal in a few hours.
We then carry out some non-invasive but highly sophisticated diagnostic tests which allow us to check your ocular health in great detail. At this stage we also carry out the highly detailed corneal scan which creates the data necessary for your procedure.
Receive our final recommendation
Once all of the above data has been gathered, we will discuss with you our final, detailed recommendation. You will have the opportunity to raise any outstanding questions you may have.
Meet your ophthalmic surgeon
Your surgeon will already be familiar with your diagnostic results and records. They will conduct a further eye exam and make a final decision as to your suitability. In a very small number of cases, your surgeon may recommend a different procedure better suited to you. You will have plenty of opportunity to ask any questions you may have and your surgeon will ensure that you completely understand the benefits, risks and possible ranges of outcomes. At this stage, you’ll complete your consent documents.
Have your surgery
A few nerves are normal at this stage! Our team is very experienced at dealing with your concerns and ensuring that you’re guided through each step at your own pace. Typically we treat both eyes on the same day.
After your surgery
Your surgeon will discuss your procedure with you and assess the immediate results. You’ll relax in our lounge and we’ll discuss your aftercare instructions with you. You can leave when you feel comfortable to do so and then rest as much as possible for the remainder of the day.
Attend your aftercare appointment
We’ll remove your therapeutic contact lens, and conduct a full eye assessment to make sure that your eyes are healing as expected. We will reiterate your aftercare instructions and ensure that you’re completely prepared to continue your aftercare from home. You’ll choose your complimentary branded sunglasses too :-)
When your aftercare appointment is complete, you’re free to travel home. However, most patients choose to stay for an extra couple of days to enjoy Prague :-)
Manage your aftercare
You’ll be provided with a direct-to-surgeon aftercare email to address any questions you may have once home. Our UK representative will always be available should you need any further advice from him as will our English speaking team in Prague. If you’d like a full eye exam from us at any time after surgery, it’s completely free - just get in touch and arrange a time when you will next be visiting Prague. We always enjoy seeing our patients again!
6 months ago, the right choice was made: my vision was 100% corrected from minus 10. The Oftum team is incredible, friendly and super attentive. They care about you from the first minute you contact them. Dr. Tomas Juhas and dr. Obama Macejova are professionals. Thank you for changing my view on this beautiful life :)
I am a patient from Singapore, and I recently did a laser vision correction of ReLEx SMILE with Oftum in Prague. The wonderful MUDr. Tomas Juhas led the procedure and assisted by the lovely MUDr. Ivana Macejova. The team carried out an impressively careful, efficient and professional approach throughout the surgery process. Oftum goes beyond an excellent service with a personal touch, I feel almost at home! Special mention to Renata for making sure my time there is comfortable, and the homemade cheesecake is one of the best one I’ve tried! It has been five days since I had my eyes done, I feel absolutely amazing seeing with my fresh eyes all crisp and clear! There were no complications and healing was very quick for me. ReLEx SMILE is the best decision I’ve made, and I highly recommend coming to Oftum to get your eyes done. Thank you Oftu...
I would like to thank everyone at Oftum in Prague. On the 15th December I had my vision corrected from minus 8 diopters, through the RelEx SMILE surgery. All staff were friendly, attentive, caring and explained everything to me from my consultation, through to leaving after the post-operative check-up (everything had gone well of course). The premises is clean, cosy and certainly well-catered; some lovely coffee and biscuits for sure! I am so pleased with the results and for everything Oftum have done for my vision. Merry Christmas everyone and have a wonderful 2018! Best wishes, Katy and Mike, United Kingdom
I'd like to thank the team of the Oftum clinic in Prague and personally Dr. Tomas Juhas for his professional work. I had a special case (too thick cornea), so I got also a second correction. Every time I received great service and good relation, also dr.Tomas made a second correction by the method that I asked for. Thanks also for very tasty green tea with ginger and homemade cheesecake. I highly recommend Oftum clinic for vision correction.
My son (14) has just had Femto LASIK on both eyes, every part of his journey has been amazing! From our contact in the U.K. Warrick - he's wonderful, so helpfull and always available with help and support to the ladies at the clinic here in Prague and of course Dr Tomas Juhas who performed my sons surgery. First class service from start to finish, no problems with language barrier as all staff spoke perfect English, Tomas was very professional and kept my son very calm, explaining everything in great detail! My son had very poor sight and waking up today not needing his glasses was very emotional and exciting! I'd recommend this clinic to all, it's changed my sons life and we got a mini break in a beautiful city! Thank you so much Oftum!
Hey there, I had a RELEX surgery of both eyes in the Oftum Clinic about 2.5 weeks ago. It was a great experience thanks to Bjoern and the Oftum Crew! The physician and staff are very friendly and aware of the process. It took less than 5 minutes under the German Zeiss Laser. Duration of the actual treatment is just 30 seconds each eye and doesn't hurt. I was able to see right after it and found the relax chair on my own. 15 minutes later I left the clinic with an almost perfect sight. After another 3 hours rest in the Panorama Hotel which is right next to the clinic I was able to explore Prague with my girlfriend in the afternoon. Since that day my eyesight is perfect and I'm still impressed how easy and good value it was. No dry eyes, just a little sensible to bright light for about a week after.
Very good care. I would do it there immediately.
It was the best decision of my life. The organization, service and eye-surgery @ OFTUM is brillant. I had absolutelly no problems or pain and after a couiple hours after the surgery, I was able to see clearly withou my classes. For everyone who would like to get rid of his glasses it is the best clinic. Many thanks again to Dr. Tomas Juhas and the whole team in Prag !!!
