You can book a private LASIK consultation near you this week, or start free online from home today. A LASIK consultation with a GMC-registered consultant refractive surgeon confirms whether LASIK is right for your eyes, using detailed corneal scans, and gives you a fixed all-inclusive price with no obligation. There is no GP referral needed and no NHS-style waiting list — most patients are assessed within days and, if they choose to proceed, treated shortly afterwards.
Get seen this week
Deciding to have laser eye surgery is a big step, and the first move is simply finding out whether your eyes are suitable. Appointments are available across the UK this week, and the fastest way to start is a free online consultation from home — a short video assessment that tells you your likely options before you commit to an in-person scan. If you prefer, you can go straight to a full in-person assessment near you.
Whichever route you choose, you will speak to a consultant refractive surgeon, not a salesperson, and you will leave with a clear, honest view of your suitability and a fixed price. Read what a thorough assessment involves in our laser eye surgery consultation guide.

What happens at your LASIK consultation
A LASIK consultation is thorough but relaxed, and typically takes 60–90 minutes in person (or a shorter video call for the free online option).
- History & goals — your surgeon asks about your prescription, lifestyle and what you want from surgery.
- Corneal scans — detailed topography and thickness measurements confirm whether LASIK is safe for your eyes.
- Dry-eye & health checks — the ocular surface and overall eye health are assessed.
- Options discussion — LASIK, SMILE or surface laser is recommended, or an alternative if laser is not ideal.
- Fixed written quote — you leave with a clear, all-inclusive price and no obligation to proceed.
