optimuminfo.hu · Seller's own label: "ZYOPTIX HD Touch Free 7D+". Unit: per eye. Per eye. 330 000 Ft is the regular price; the price list's second column ('Kedvezményes ar') shows a discounted 280 000 Ft/szem for this row, which I have not recorded as the price. Touch Free is trans-epithelial no-touch surface ablation, so it is an excimer-only treatment rather than a flap LASIK; if our catalogue item is read strictly as PRK/LASIK the match is close but not identical.
