From an eye exam for glasses to laser vision correction and cataract surgery, these are different patients with different paths to a decision. We set up ads for each and track diagnostic exam bookings.
Ophthalmology Clinics We group searches by intent: high-intent queries go into separate campaigns with higher bids, informational ones become negative keywords or content.
People think about laser correction or lens replacement for weeks: they read about risks and contraindications and compare techniques. Ads should lead to a diagnostic exam as the first step, not straight “to surgery.”
Young people want to get rid of their glasses, a clinic for elderly parents with cataracts is often chosen by their adult children, and parents of young kids look for a pediatric ophthalmologist. Each needs their own keywords, copy and pages.
Eye exams bring lots of traffic, but some people are actually looking for an optical store with free glasses fitting. Without separate campaigns, these clicks crowd out more valuable searches for diagnostics and treatment.
Patients worry about their eyesight and want to know who operates and on what equipment. A page featuring the surgeon, the stages, contraindications and an honest description of recovery persuades more than advertising promises.
Every campaign has its own role. We set the order and budget after analyzing demand in your city and your competitors.
Separate campaigns for laser correction, cataracts, pediatric ophthalmology and diagnostics, with their own pages and negative keywords.
How it works 02A Google Business Profile and location assets for “eye doctor near me” searches, which often end with a call or directions.
How it works 03Videos with the surgeon about correction stages and recovery help patients who take a long time to weigh the decision.
How it works 04Reach on YouTube, Discover and Gmail with content about eye exams — aimed at broad audiences, without health-based targeting.
How it worksThis is just one variation. In a responsive search ad, we write up to 15 headlines and 4 descriptions, and Google assembles the best combination for each search.
Ad descriptions
A full eye exam to determine whether correction is right for you, and which technique.
The surgeon explains the stages, contraindications and recovery. Book online or by phone.
Automated bid strategies learn from the data we feed them. That’s why we only count actions that lead to sales.
Demand seasonality
Laser correction is often planned for the colder season and outside vacation time, so recovery can happen without bright sun or travel, while children's eye exams pick up before the school year. Symptom-driven visits, such as for irritation or allergic conjunctivitis, are more noticeable in spring.
Google Ads restrictions in this niche
Ophthalmology is a healthcare topic subject to Google restrictions. What we take into account: we don't mention prescription eye drops or other drugs in ads; claims like “perfect vision” or “zero risk” are unverified claims about results and can be disapproved; images of eye surgery may be classified as shocking content. Health is a sensitive category, so personalized advertising, including remarketing to visitors of treatment pages, is restricted, and copy must not imply a person's diagnosis. We build the foundation on Search and Maps, and reach through contextual targeting and broad audiences with no health-based signals.
We set priorities — correction, cataracts, children or general appointments — and map how each patient reaches treatment: through an exam, a surgeon consultation or a call.
GA4, GTM, call tracking, booking events, Consent Mode v2, and passing data from the CRM on who reached the exam and surgery stages — without medical details.
Search campaigns for each service, Maps, pages featuring surgeons and contraindications, copy without medical guarantees, and negative keywords for optical store searches.
We analyze which searches lead patients to surgery, not just an eye exam, shift budget to them, and add videos for people who take longer to decide.
Answers to the questions business owners ask most often before launch.
No, and they shouldn't. The result of correction depends on the exam and individual factors, so such promises go against Google's unreliable claims policy and erode trust. We write about the process: the exam, the technique, the surgeon's experience and post-op care.
The clinic is often chosen by the patient's children or grandchildren, so we tailor copy and pages to them too: clear stages, preparation, support, how to get there. We make a call the main action, because older patients find it easier to talk to the front desk than to fill out a form.
Few people are ready to book surgery from the first click. An exam is a clear first step, after which the doctor determines whether correction is suitable. We track both events and optimize ads toward people who go on to have surgery.
Only if the clinic offers full diagnostics and follow-up treatment. We split searches — “eye exam for glasses” separately from “pre-correction eye exam” — and set bids based on how many of these patients move on to treatment.
It's a separate line with its own demand: parents search for a “pediatric eye doctor” and a vision check before school, and pay attention to how the doctor works with kids and to their experience. We create a separate ad group and a page describing appointments for young children, and evaluate results by bookings.
