I had lens replacment surgery in Prague arranged by Beauty in Prague. As to be expected I was a little anxious as this was my first time travelling to recieve medical treatment. The whole experience was very professional and seamless. The English speaking contact made sure I was well informed from the moment we landed to the time we left. The hospital/clinic was state of the art, and was very well run, all the nurses, doctors and surgeons spoke English and put you at ease. I am now 2 days after my operation and my vision is 20/20, I am extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend Beauty in Pragur to any anyone considering lens replacement surgery. I have video documented my trip online at thedamersgreatescape
I had a great experience from start to finish.
They were very efficient and the transport was excellent. I would highly recommend.

Hi,hi can't fault the service at Beauty in Prague. A dedicated coordinator arranged and paid for all taxis to and from airport and clinic. Eye tests on first day only took an hour then had a free day before being booked in for op on third day. Everything went smoothly, had drops put in eyes to dilate and anaesthetise, then given a relaxing pill. Then into theatre and each eye only took about 10 mins. No pain at all during surgery. Straight after surgery right eye was perfect, left was a little cloudy and scratchy for a few hours. Next morning both eyes pretty much perfect. Day 4 had a check up and was cleared to fly home. No problem driving home from airport and I'm now typing this review without glasses which I've needed for years. Would definately recomend Beauty in Prague. First class service, a nice city break and a good saving over uk prices.

What is cataract surgery?
Cataract surgery is a procedure that removes the cloudy natural lens of the eye and replaces it with a clear artificial lens to restore vision. Technically it is the same as Lens Replacement surgery or Refractive Lens exchange (RLE).
Is cataract surgery safe?
Yes, cataract surgery is one of the safest and most commonly performed procedures worldwide, with a very high success rate.
How long does cataract surgery take?
The procedure typically takes 10–15 minutes per eye and is performed under local anaesthesia using eye drops.
How soon can you see after cataract surgery?
Most patients notice improved vision immediately after surgery, with further improvement over the following days.
Can both eyes be operated on the same day?
Yes, many patients choose to have both eyes treated on the same day for faster recovery and fewer clinic visits.
What country has the best cataract surgery?
The Czech Republic, especially Prague, is considered one of the best destinations for cataract surgery in Europe due to experienced surgeons, modern clinics, and significantly lower costs compared to the UK.
What Is Cataract Surgery?
Cataracts occur when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred or dim vision. Cataract surgery removes this cloudy lens and replaces it with a clear artificial lens.
This procedure not only restores vision but can also reduce dependence on glasses when premium lenses are used.
Who Is Cataract Surgery Suitable For?
Cataract surgery is suitable for patients who:
- experience blurred or cloudy vision
- have difficulty reading or driving
- are sensitive to light or glare
- have been diagnosed with cataracts
Many patients over 50 develop cataracts as part of natural ageing.
What Types of Lenses Are Available?
- Monofocal lenses – clear vision at one distance
- Toric lenses – correct astigmatism
- Trifocal lenses – clear vision at all distances
- EDOF lenses (Alcon Vivity) – extended range of vision
Premium lenses can significantly reduce or eliminate the need for glasses after cataract surgery.
