Maximum precision
Return to 6/6 vision with Alcon's and Zeiss’ premium lasers
All our treatments are performed with state-of-the-art lasers from Alcon and Zeiss, two of the global market leaders in ophthalmology.
WaveLight® FS200 Femtosecond Laser
We remodel the cornea using a femtosecond laser during LASIK treatment to create an extremely thin cover (flap) in the cornea's upper layer.
The FS200's unique features include the following:
• The laser has a one-piece, injection-moulded design that produces predictable results.
• The equipment gives us transparent, enhanced visibility through an unobstructed 360° view of the eye.
• The FS200 gives our doctors an excellent external visualization of the surgical field.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
These are the most important, frequently asked questions and answers about your laser eye treatment or lens treatment at betterview. If you need further information or have any questions, please get in touch with us.
What is the probability of success for my laser eye correction?
Exceptionally high. In approximately 95% of treatments, there is no residual refractive error. However, if this is the case, we can usually correct it with a second treatment. The probability of a residual correction increases slightly with the level of refractive error.
Will laser eye treatment last a lifetime?
Yes. After laser eye treatment, you can normally dispense with distance glasses for the rest of your life. Deterioration is very rare and affects people who already had a very high dioptre value before the treatment.
What ages are suitable for a laser eye treatment?
Generally, about 98% of all 18 to 45-year-olds are suitable for laser eye treatment. There may also be a possibility of laser vision correction for people over the age of 45. However, starting at the age of 45, a refractive lens exchange is preferable and available at betterview. We clarify and discuss in detail which treatment method is most suitable for you in our free, no-obligation examinations.
How does a refractive lens exchange work?
A refractive lens exchange involves replacing your natural lens with an artificial lens. The procedure corrects severe ametropia as well as presbyopia, and prevents cataracts.
betterview also offers lens treatments. Which methods are offered exactly?
In addition to lens implantation, betterview also offers refractive lens exchange. Both treatments are alternatives to laser eye treatment. They can also be used to treat people whose eyes may not be suitable for laser eye treatment, for example, due to severe ametropia, advanced age, or a cornea that is too thin.
How does lens treatment work?
Lens treatment at betterview, like laser eye treatment, takes place in four steps: a free and no-obligation preliminary examination, a detailed main examination, the treatment and the subsequent follow-ups.
What are the most common risks of laser eye surgery?
Laser eye surgery is a very safe option for correcting vision problems, but like any medical procedure, it also carries some risks. The most well-known include:
- Dry eyes
- Vision fluctuations
- Over- or under-correction
- Infections
- Regression
In most cases, the described complications can be resolved through follow-up treatment. More details on the risks of laser eye surgery can be found here.
