Treatable eye conditions

Don't believe everything you hear - refractive surgery can treat many common eye conditions.

Many people believe that laser eye surgery cannot treat certain conditions, such as astigmatism or presbyopia (the affects of age on the eye). This is largely because so many clinics refuse patients who have these conditions.

However, this says more about the limits of those clinics than of refractive surgery itself. The eye surgeons at the London Vision Clinic have been successfully treating these conditions for years.

Pioneering laser eye surgery treatments

Our goal is to provide the ultimate in surgical expertise, patient care and customer service. That means doing our utmost to help any patient, no matter how complex or severe their condition may be.

Over many years of research and practice, we have pioneered a range of unique refractive surgery techniques and technologies. These have helped expand the scope of laser eye surgery, and ensured that we can help almost any patient.

Laser Blended Vision, for example, is a revolutionary treatment for presbyopia - the effect of ageing on the eye. Rather than turn away patients over 40, we welcome them with the good news that they may soon be rid of their reading glasses.

Equally important are our High Profile treatments for very high prescriptions, such as severe myopia. This laser eye surgery, at prescription strengths far beyond the norm, is made possible by the most advanced testing equipment in the world, and our detailed, individually tailored treatment plans.

What our patients are saying

When my arm was no longer long enough for me to read a magazine or newspaper, I knew it was time to invest in some glasses! Of course the situation did not improve and I was always forgetting to put them in my handbag. I could no longer read price tags and there were many times when I thought I had bagged a bargain only to find, when I went to pay, there was an extra nought on the end and I was too embarrassed not to buy it! Supermarket shopping was hell, I could never read the weights or check ingredients. Many times I had to buy a pair of the store's reading glasses to do my shopping! My family would laugh at me because I had a pair of glasses in every room, so I could check a recipe or the oven temperature, to check the times of my favourite programmes and even to check if my eye make-up was okay! Worst of all, being keen on going to the gym, I could no longer read the instructions or set up the programme I wanted. And glasses in the gym were just hopeless. There had been many embarrassing moments in restaurants when I had forgotten the glasses and had to ask someone to read the menu for me. The dreaded day came when the optician prescribed varifocals - either that or carry two pairs of glasses!

Only six hours after the procedure, whilst making myself tea, I glanced across the work surface and realised that I could actually read the newsprint without my glasses, I could not believe it. Life just got better and better, no more searching for lost glasses when shopping, no more embarrassing moments in restaurants. Being able to watch television and seeing detail - but best of all being able to programme the machines in the gym! Thank you so much for giving me back 20/20 vision and for taking 20 years off my life. - Adele N., Fitness Trainer
