Laser eye surgery:
Naturally accessible

Of course, our eye laser center is barrier-free:
Our practice rooms are easily accessible by elevator, so that patients in wheelchairs or with walking aids can also visit us.

Der Bahnhof Bern ist teilweise barrierefrei, aber nicht vollständig, da er sich noch bis ca. 2031 in einem grossen Umbau befindet. Es gibt Hilfsdienste wie den Mobilift (für Rollstühle) und Personal (SBB Assistenz), um Reisende zu unterstützen und Ein- und Ausstiegshilfen zu geben.

Some of the ramps are steep for wheelchair users, but there are low-floor vehicles in regional transport and long-distance connections with barrier-free access.

Why YOUSEEBÄRN? Your advantages at a glance:

We take the time to conduct a particularly thorough analysis of your eyes to determine whether laser eye treatment is medically appropriate for you. You will always receive an honest assessment and a recommendation that is tailored to your individual needs.

Highest safety standards

Your health comes first: Not everything that is technically feasible is also sensible. We advise against surgery if we are not 100% convinced that the procedure is the right course of action. No other center turns away as many patients as YOUSEE, because we only operate when it is safe and medically advisable.

We are pioneers

YOUSEE was founded by the inventor of laser eye surgery. Prof. Dr. Dr. Theo Seiler performed the world's first laser eye surgery in the 1980s. This expertise is incorporated into every treatment. Our specialists were personally trained by Prof. Seiler and continue his vision of making the highest quality medical care accessible to all. YOUSEE is the first and only laser eye surgery center in Germany to offer the latest laser technology.

Laser eye surgery? Affordable!

This was also part of the vision of our founder Prof. Dr. Dr. Seiler: laser eye surgery at the highest medical standard must be affordable for everyone, here locally, without having to travel abroad just because of the price.

Our prices are simple, low, and without hidden fees. Of course, you can also pay in installments.

Investor-free

Our laser eye surgery centers are medically managed and part of a second-generation family business. Swiss quality standards and continuous research ensure that you can rely on state-of-the-art laser eye surgery technology and a first-class team here in Bern. Personalized care without time pressure, transparent advice, and a feel-good atmosphere are a matter of course for us.

State-of-the-art laser eye surgery in Bern

At the YOUSEE Eye Laser Center in Bern, we offer various eye laser procedures and other refractive corrections: individually selected and tailored precisely to your needs. Laser eye surgery generally refers to the correction of vision problems using a laser. A high-precision laser reshapes the cornea in such a way that nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism are permanently eliminated. Many people are suitable candidates for laser surgery and can usually see clearly without visual aids for the rest of their lives.

An overview of our treatment methods:

1

Trans-PRK (also known as No-Touch PRK)

Trans-PRK is an advanced form of PRK: an excimer laser gently removes the epithelial layer without contact (hence “no-touch”) and without the use of mechanical instruments. In the same step, the underlying tissue can be sculpted to permanently, precisely, and gently correct vision impairments.

In the Trans-PRK procedure, vision problems are precisely corrected by a laser in a single step.

Femto-LASIK

Femto-LASIK is the most well-known laser eye surgery procedure worldwide. At YOUSEE in Bern, we use state-of-the-art medical technology to perform your LASIK procedure as gently and precisely as possible. First, the femtosecond laser prepares a wafer-thin corneal flap, which the surgeon carefully lifts. Then, an excimer laser corrects the vision defect underneath. Finally, the flap is carefully replaced.

In Femto-LASIK, a laser is used to create a corneal flap, and a second laser then corrects the vision problem.

Lenticule extraction (KLEx/SMILE)

Lenticule extraction, known as KLEx (Keratorefractive Lenticule Extraction) in our practice and also under the brand name SMILE, is the latest laser eye surgery procedure. It also uses a femtosecond laser, which cuts out a tiny lens-shaped piece of tissue from inside the cornea. The doctor removes this disc through the corneal opening via a micro-access point measuring just a few millimeters. Removing the disc changes the shape of the cornea in such a way that the vision impairment is corrected: without any incisions on the surface.

The KLEx procedure is a very gentle laser eye surgery procedure in which vision is corrected through only a tiny incision.

Whether Trans-PRK, Femto-LASIK, or KLEx/SMILE:

At our laser eye surgery center in Basel, we will find the right solution to improve your vision safely and effectively. We will explain the differences between the various methods in a way that is easy to understand and recommend the laser eye treatment that makes the most sense for you from a medical standpoint.
The goal is always: maximum vision quality with minimum risk.
