International and out-of-town patientsTravelling to Paris for your keratopigmentation
Do you live outside Paris, elsewhere in France or abroad? I operate during planned surgery sessions in Paris, booked in advance. Everything is designed to keep your trip simple: a first conversation from home, one trip for the procedure, and the same doctor from start to finish.
Your journey in 4 steps
A first conversation on WhatsApp
Write to me on WhatsApp. We go over your plans, your medical history and your expectations together. You can send me photos of your eyes.
Choosing your date
Together we pick a date among the surgery sessions scheduled in Paris. Dates are shared in advance so you have time to plan your trip.
Confirming your booking
Your slot is confirmed either with a €500 deposit, deducted from the price, or with proof of travel: a train or plane ticket, or a hotel booking in Paris. This applies to every patient.
The day of the procedure
It takes place at the Centre Laser Victor Hugo, 27 bis avenue Victor Hugo, 75116 Paris. A complete eye examination always comes first.
How long should you stay in Paris?
Short-lived symptoms are common after the procedure (discomfort, light sensitivity, watery eyes). It is therefore better to spend at least one night in Paris. Some patients do fly home a few hours after surgery: I will advise you based on your situation.

Do I need to come to Paris for the first consultation?
No. The first conversation takes place remotely, on WhatsApp, with photos. A complete examination is then carried out in Paris before the procedure.
How many nights should I plan in Paris?
It is better to spend at least one night in Paris after the procedure, because of post-operative symptoms. Some patients fly home a few hours after surgery; I will advise you on your case.
What is the minimum age?
18 years old. A full eye examination then checks that your eyes can be operated on.
How do I book my date if I live far away?
With a €500 deposit, deducted from the price, or with proof of travel: a train or plane ticket, or a hotel booking in Paris. This applies to every patient.
Where can I stay near where the procedure takes place?
I recommend the Hôtel du Bois Paris Champs-Élysées, 11 rue du Dôme, 75116 Paris, a one-minute walk from the Centre Laser Victor Hugo, 27 bis avenue Victor Hugo, 75116 Paris.
