Remote review
We study your documents and arrange a second opinion from a specialist professor.
Ophthalmology
Vision correction, cataract surgery, treatment of glaucoma, the retina and the cornea — with Swiss clinic ophthalmologists, for adults and children.
About the specialty
Vision restored in one or two days
Diagnostics rest on optical coherence tomography, ultrasound and MRI — this makes it possible to see changes in the retina and optic nerve long before the patient notices a decline.
Laser correction and cataract surgery are performed on femtosecond lasers, with implantation of premium multifocal and toric lenses. After Femto-LASIK a marked improvement comes as early as the next day; full recovery takes from a few days to a week.
The clinic is matched to the diagnosis: complex retinal cases, glaucoma and paediatric ophthalmology require different centres and different equipment.

Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How much does laser correction or cataract surgery cost?
As a guide: laser vision correction from CHF 4,000, cataract removal from CHF 6,000 per eye. You receive the clinic’s final estimate before treatment starts — with a clear note of what it includes.
How long does recovery take after Femto-LASIK?
A marked improvement in vision comes as early as the next day; full recovery takes from a few days to a week.
Can I get a doctor’s opinion without travelling to Switzerland?
Yes. We arrange a review of your documents and investigations — before the trip is planned.
Do I need to speak a foreign language?
No. A medical interpreter accompanies you at appointments and stays in touch throughout your stay in Switzerland.
Why CorSwiss rather than going to the clinic directly?
We are your independent representative and full-cycle medical concierge. We match a clinic to your diagnosis, not one clinic for every case, arrange a second opinion and agree a transparent estimate before treatment starts. A medical visa, flights and transfers, accommodation, a personal interpreter at every appointment and a 24/7 assistant — in one pair of hands.
