Following life changing vision correction surgery, one of the most common things we hear from patients is “I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.”
The Optical Express 'Refer a Friend' programme gives you an added incentive to share your life changing laser or lens surgery experience. Refer your friend to us for surgery and you’ll receive £100 as a thank you when your friend completes surgery. Plus, we will give your friend a £300 discount off the cost of their surgery!
Not only will this added bonus perk you up, but you'll also love life with your new found visual freedom as glasses and contact lenses become a thing of the past.
There's more good news - did you know there is no limit to the number of times you can refer a friend to Optical Express for lens and laser surgery? Every time a friend you refer gets surgery you'll receive £100 as a reward, and once you’ve referred 9 friends for surgery, you will then earn £1,000 for your 10th referral!
The best things in life are worth sharing with friends, so what are you waiting for? Share the joy of visual freedom today.

Terms and Conditions
*Terms and conditions
Only Optical Express patients who have paid for, and completed their own treatment at Optical Express are eligible to refer a friend or family member. A valid “Refer a Friend” voucher must be presented at the time of your friend’s (the referee) initial consultation in order to validate the referral. There is no limit to the number of people you can refer. You must create a separate online voucher for each friend you wish to recommend.
Valid until date stated on voucher which will be emailed to you (the referrer) upon completion of the online refer a friend form (your friend or family member must have booked a surgery date on or before this date to qualify for the Refer a Friend reward). The referrer will receive a £100/€100 payment only once the person they have referred has completed surgery.
Payments are made via electronic bank transfer and will be sent by HSBC bank. We share your name, mobile telephone number and email address with HSBC in order for it to administer payments and this is done through HSBC’s portal. Following a successful referral, you will receive an SMS message from Optical Express confirming that someone you recommended has undergone treatment and that you can now claim your referral fee. This SMS message will also include a unique registration code. You will then receive an email from HSBC containing instructions on how to claim your reward and asking you to register using the unique registration code received by SMS. You will be asked to provide bank details for the account you wish the referral reward to be paid into. Please see our privacy policy for more information about how we handle your personal data. You can also find out more about how HSBC handles personal data here.

We aim to make referral payments within 30 days from the date that the person referred completes their surgery. Subsequent referrals 11 to 19 will receive a referral fee of £100/€100 each and the 20th referral will receive £1,000/€1,000, and so on.
