Affordable Eye Surgery Without Risking It
Monterrey, Mexico, October 12th, 2009
Vision implies so much for all of us, that the word has been literally snatched to mean much more than visual sense. It is also the way insight is called, in reference to the capacity to relate the perceptions in a significant and useful way. Somehow all of those words meaning were generalized as “Vision”, because mostly through our eyes, through our visual sense, come to our brain the many images turned in our mind into perceptions that were needed to perfect them, and give a meaning to us. So important is therefore this sense and the organ that makes it possible, that utmost care must be given to it. Its care must have priority to almost all activities and illnesses that we may have. It is therefore a disgrace that individuals looking forward to improving their quality of life via vision surgery to correct whatever the condition they suffer from, must choose either to face huge financial trouble in doing so, or remain without care.
As with most health-related aspects, Americans and Canadians must find quick and easy alternative to expensive healthcare at home. Luckily, globalization has created an industry that specializes in providing options very close by. Creating viable and attractive healthcare services targeting Americans is in the top developmental strategies of various countries. The main issue is how ca this huge prospective market do to differentiate the good from the not-so-good services they can access abroad. For large hospitals and institutions, accreditations are the way to go. Organizations like the Joint Commission have created international standards by which foreign hospitals can abide and show the world that they meet US standards. Nevertheless, smaller clinics and healthcare practices, including the typical providers of vision and dental care, have no means to do so. They rely on their reputation to be the differentiator.
COSJ, a leading eye care clinic in Monterrey, Mexico has built this kind of reputation over their more than two decades of existence. As its founder, Dr. Jesus Vidaurri states: “We pioneered LASIK, PRK, and cataract surgeries in Mexico. In fact, we’ve been doing this before they were even available in the US, and we still offer prices which are 60% lower than those of my colleagues and some former students, just two hours away from here in Southern Texas.” With all its members boasting resumes that show US education and years of experience, clinics like this one are the answer for an American patient looking for top-notch, affordable eye surgery.
As Gabriel Senior, Founder of Monterrey-based Medical Travel firm Travel For Care, says: “Regrettably it is not common knowledge, that very affordable cataract surgery and medical care for eye conditions is available very close by, at outstanding clinics, by top doctors who have had training in the U.S.” With prices as low as $995 for a refractive (very inexpensive LASIK or PRK), and starting at $1,995 for an inexpensive cataract surgery, the answer is Medical Travel.
COSJ is Monterrey’s premier eye care clinic housed in the Hospital San José TEC de Monterrey complex. It was founded by Dr. Jesus Vidaurri and has facilities both in Monterrey, and in Reynosa, just across the border from McAllen, TX. For more information, please visit http://www.cosj.com/english.html
