Revenue model

1. Eye laser surgical procedures: One-time surgical fees for eye laser treatments (ReLEx SMILE Pro, Femto-LASIK, PRK). Prices range from approximately €950 to €2,500 per eye depending on method chosen. Treatment is performed on an outpatient basis with pre- and post-examinations included.
2. Lens implantation procedures: Revenue from ICL lens implantation and multifocal lens procedures for patients with high refractive errors or when laser treatment is not suitable.
3. Financing arrangements: Partnership with financing providers EOS Health AG and medipay enables patients to pay for treatments in installments. This expands the addressable market by making procedures accessible to patients who cannot pay upfront.

Core offering

Lasermed is a direct-to-consumer ophthalmology clinic chain that performs refractive eye surgery and lens implantation procedures to correct myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Core offerings include ReLEx SMILE Pro, Femto-LASIK, PRK, PRESBYOND laser blended vision, ICL lens implantation, multifocal lens implantation, and laser-assisted cataract surgery. Procedures are outpatient, performed at multiple German clinic locations, and sold per-eye as a one-time service with included pre- and post-examinations.

Product overview

Lasermed is a specialized eye laser and lens surgery provider offering a comprehensive portfolio of vision correction treatments. The core offering consists of four primary eye laser methods: ReLEx SMILE Pro (the most advanced, flapless procedure), Femto LASIK (flap-based laser treatment), PRK (surface laser for athletes and specific patient groups), and PRESBYOND (blended vision for age-related farsightedness). For patients unsuitable for laser treatments, the company offers lens-based solutions including ICL (Implantable Collamer) lenses for high refractive errors and multifocal lenses for multi-distance vision. Additional services include cataract laser treatment and flexible financing options. All treatments are performed at multiple Berlin locations (including Berlin-Mitte, Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg, Pankow, Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Spandau Arcaden, Tempelhof, and Marzahn-Hohenschönhausen) as well as Hamburg and Leipzig, supported by experienced specialist physicians.

Direct peers

• Care Vision: Care Vision is a German eye clinic chain offering laser vision correction, lens implantation, and cataract surgery across multiple cities. It overlaps with Lasermed on refractive procedures, pricing tier, and target patient, making it one of the most direct local competitors.
• Smile Eyes Augenklinik: Smile Eyes operates a German chain of ophthalmology clinics specializing in laser vision correction (SMILE, LASIK, PRK) and lens surgery. It competes head-to-head with Lasermed in the same self-pay refractive market using a similar multi-method portfolio and similar German DTC marketing approach.
• EuroEyes: EuroEyes is the largest publicly listed eye laser and lens surgery chain in Germany, operating dozens of clinics across Germany and internationally. It directly competes with Lasermed on the same refractive surgery procedures (SMILE, Femto-LASIK, ICL, multifocal IOLs) targeting the same self-pay patient base, but with significantly greater scale and capital access.
• Optical Express: Optical Express is one of Europe's largest private providers of laser eye surgery, lens surgery, and cataract treatment, with a significant German presence. It competes with Lasermed across the same refractive and lens surgery procedures, leveraging larger marketing spend and brand recognition.
• VisuVision Augenklinik: VisuVision is a German clinic group focused on refractive surgery (LASIK, SMILE, PRK) and cataract treatment. It targets the same self-pay patient demographic as Lasermed and competes on similar procedure mix and price points in overlapping German metro areas.
• Memira (Nordic Eye Health): Memira operates eye laser and lens surgery clinics across Scandinavia and Germany under Nordic Eye Health. It serves the same self-pay refractive correction market with comparable procedures (LASIK, SMILE, ICL, multifocal lenses) and competes directly with Lasermed in northern German cities.

Others

• OCULUS Optikgeräte: OCULUS is a German manufacturer of ophthalmic diagnostic equipment (e.g., Pentacam corneal topographers) commonly used in refractive surgery clinics. It is an ecosystem supplier to Lasermed and similar refractive practices rather than a direct competitor, but its diagnostic hardware is integral to Lasermed's pre-op workflow.
• STAAR Surgical (Visian ICL): STAAR Surgical manufactures the Visian ICL implantable collamer lens that Lasermed offers for high refractive errors. As the supplier of a flagship Lasermed product, STAAR's commercial terms, technology roadmap, and pricing directly affect Lasermed's economics and procedure mix.
• Carl Zeiss Meditec (VisuMax): Carl Zeiss Meditec manufactures the VisuMax femtosecond laser used for ReLEx SMILE/SMILE Pro, a centerpiece of Lasermed's premium offering. As the equipment and procedure IP licensor, Zeiss defines the clinical capabilities and technology refresh cycle of Lasermed's core service.

Regional players

• Augencentrum Köln: Augencentrum Köln is a regional ophthalmology provider in the Cologne/Rhineland area offering refractive and cataract surgery. It is a regional peer in a German metro where Lasermed has no current presence, representing both a competitive overlap and an expansion target.
