Four routes to clear vision without glasses or contact lenses — LASIK, TransPRK, ICL, and laser lens replacement, all assessed and performed by one consultant in Colchester.
Free, no-obligation call. We respond within one working day.
Each procedure suits a different age, prescription, and eye profile. Mr Mukherjee offers all four under one roof, so the recommendation always matches your eyes — not what one clinic happens to provide.
Fast-recovery laser correction — the most common choice for adults under 45 with moderate prescriptions and healthy corneas. From £1,400 per eye.
About LASIK →
Flapless surface laser — preserves more corneal strength, ideal for thinner corneas or contact-sport lifestyles. From £1,400 per eye.
About TransPRK →
An implanted lens for very high prescriptions or thin corneas where laser isn’t suitable. Fully reversible. Approximately £3,000 per eye.
About ICL →
Replaces the natural lens with a premium IOL — best for patients over 50 or very strong prescriptions. From £2,000 per eye.
About Laser Lens Replacement →Choosing between these four options is not a matter of personal preference. It is a clinical decision based on your age, the strength of your prescription, the thickness of your corneas, and the health of your natural lens. Mr Mukherjee assesses all of these during a single consultation and recommends the option that genuinely fits.
Patients under 45 with a moderate prescription and healthy corneas are usually well suited to laser eye surgery, either LASIK or TransPRK. The choice between the two depends on your corneal thickness, occupation, and how quickly you need to return to full visual function.
If your prescription is too high for safe laser correction, or your corneas are too thin, ICL surgery can correct the same refractive errors without removing any tissue from the eye. Because it is reversible, it also preserves future treatment options.
For patients over 50, or anyone whose natural lens is beginning to change, laser lens replacement is usually the more effective long-term solution. It corrects vision permanently and means cataract surgery will never be needed later. If cataracts are already present, cataract surgery with a premium lens achieves the same result while restoring the clarity that cataracts have taken away.
In 2026, indicative pricing at The Vision Surgeon covers every option under one roof:
All prices include the consultation, procedure, and standard aftercare appointments. Final pricing is confirmed after your individual assessment with Mr Mukherjee, because your prescription and lens choice affect the total. Payment options are available.
No bias toward one procedure. A clinic that only offers laser surgery will recommend laser surgery. Mr Mukherjee offers laser, lens replacement, and ICL. The recommendation is based on what your eyes need, not on what the practice happens to provide.
One assessment, complete picture. Your consultation covers suitability for every option in a single appointment. If laser is not right, the alternative is recommended on the spot, by the same surgeon, without a referral to a different clinic.
Every procedure in Colchester. All four procedures are performed locally in Colchester. No referral to London, no repeating your assessment somewhere else.
If you are not sure where you fall, the eligibility quiz gives a quick initial indication. For a definitive answer, the free consultation covers suitability for every option in a single appointment.
The procedure matters less than the assessment that precedes it. A thorough assessment by a surgeon who covers all the options means the recommendation is matched to your eyes, not limited by what is available. At The Vision Surgeon, that assessment is free. It covers suitability for every procedure in a single appointment, and you leave with a clear recommendation and a written quote.
No obligation. No pressure. Just a clear answer about your options.
