At the forefront of laser eye surgery research

Professor Reinstein discusses the recent innovations and research behind Laser Blended Vision, a solution for presbyopia and reading glasses

Professor Reinstein discusses the recent innovations and research behind Laser Blended Vision, a solution for presbyopia and reading glasses

Since the beginning of his career, Professor Reinstein – founder and Medical Director of The London Vision Clinic – has been one of the small group of experts pioneering the latest advances in laser eye surgery results and research. They regularly publish laser eye surgery scientific articles and book-chapters in peer-reviewed publications.

Today, the London Vision Clinic demonstrates its commitment to excellence by employing full-time research staff including Oxford and Cambridge educated Research Manager, Tim Archer, and PhD-qualified Research Optometrist, Marine Gobbe.

Working with our surgeons, Tim and Marine review the results of every procedure, monitoring results and continuously looking for ways we could refine our techniques even further, to improve patient outcomes even if only by a fraction.

Few laser eye surgeons monitor their outcomes scientifically. Most laser eye surgeons who do, only review a small sample of their total procedures and then rarely publish these in peer-reviewed medical journals.

It is only 3 weeks since surgery and still becoming ‘used’ to having no glasses in order to read signs/clocks/text messages etc. Should have done this years ago had the treatment been available. Just cannot praise enough the excellence of everyone at the Vision Clinic in every respect.

Jane Canning

We believe that the only way of achieving the best possible results is to continuously evaluate every single procedure statistically; it is our dedication to detail in every aspect of our work in laser eye surgery that enables us to obtain clinical outcomes which rate as the best results achievable – results which we believe to be second to none in the world.

Tim is also an expert computer programmer, and works with our surgeons to create an individually tailored treatment plan for every eye of every patient, based on the results of our uniquely comprehensive testing and screening. We use this system to calibrate the laser and refine our surgical technique for every single eye, ensuring it is precisely tuned to the individual patient’s needs
