Quality and Safety Standards
The facility belongs to the SANLAS Holding group. This group follows strict quality management protocols. The EN ISO 9001 certification confirms that the clinic meets international standards for patient safety and organizational efficiency. The Focus Eye Laser Center provides a dedicated environment for LASIK surgery, using precise laser methods to reshape the cornea. This process helps patients reduce their dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
Treatment Process
The LASIK procedure is a common method for treating nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It involves creating a thin flap on the surface of the eye. A laser then removes tiny amounts of tissue to change the way light enters the eye. The procedure is typically fast and allows for a quick recovery. Patients receive a thorough examination before the surgery to check their suitability for the laser treatment.

Leech Private Clinic : more details about the clinic
Privatklinik Leech, founded in 1973, is a private surgical clinic in the centre of Graz, the capital of Styria in southern Austria. It belongs to SANLAS Holding, a Styrian healthcare group founded in 1980 that today runs twelve health facilities across rehabilitation, care, prevention, acute medicine and surgery. Leech works as a "Belegarzt" clinic: patients are treated by the specialist of their choice from a team of around 100 doctors, who use the clinic's operating theatres, nursing team and infrastructure. With 44 beds in single and double rooms, three operating theatres and a round-the-clock recovery unit, the clinic combines a broad surgical range with the comfort and personal atmosphere of a small private hospital in the heart of the city.

The clinic covers almost every surgical field apart from obstetrics, including:

International Patients
