The next best thing to first-hand experience is the experience of others.
Reviews and testimonials are everywhere. However, it’s important to be cautious when reading testimonials and know that the Laser Eye Surgery experiences may not necessarily reflect your own. Furthermore, if you’re looking to gain a well-rounded and balanced opinion, patient comments published on a clinic’s website can only go so far. We strongly recommend that you read fully independent reviews, such as Google reviews or Trustpilot to find out what our patients have to say about the clinic.
Of course, patient reviews are subjective and are not evidence-based. For outcomes statistics, we recommend you examine quantified Laser Eye Surgery results.
Patient Video Reviews
We also have a fair few folks who have created short video diaries that you may want to watch. There are too many to list here so we created a YouTube box set of the top 25 patient videos.
Highly recommended and wish I had done it sooner
The staff were incredibly friendly, reassuring and professional. Every single person I interacted with made me feel comfortable, informed and cared for.
What really stood out to me was the depth and precision of the diagnostic testing. The clinic uses advanced technology and they discovered aspects of my eye health that I had never been told about before, even after 10 years of eye exams elsewhere. They ran tests on my eyes at every visit.
The surgery itself was only about 5 minutes long, and I felt supported every step of the way. My recovery has gone extremely well. No dry eyes, no vision aberrations and my vision is already significantly improved.
A huge thank you to Professor Reinstein and the entire team for the work that they do. If you’re someone with a high prescription like I was or have been previously told your prescription cannot be treated by laser, you should definitely come to London Vision clinic for their opinion.
My SMILE surgery was performed by Glenn, who every step of the way was amazing; he was highly informative in my pre surgery appointment, thoroughly explaining every step of the procedure, post care, and any questions that I had. I also thought it was a lovely touch that he sent me a follow up message to see how I was doing post surgery.
The surgery itself was performed flawlessly, both Glenn and the rest of the team during the surgery were excellent. I didn't experience any pain during or after my surgery, and followed the post eye drop schedule to the letter. I also didn't experience any dry eye issues.
I also saw doctors Zahir, Darshak, and Emma for my pre or post surgery review appointments. All three of them were fantastic.
And last but by no means least, Kate was extremely helpful with arranging my appointments and Timothy and Lucy were both highly efficient in sending e-mails to me.
If and when my eyes do deteriorate, due to aging, I will definitely be coming back here. Have also recommended the London Vision Clinic to all my friends and family.
Thank you.
I researched very carefully to choose a surgeon and clinic with a resumé that instilled complete confidence. The London Vision Clinic was my ultimate choice, renowned for their expertise in complex cataract surgeries and their pioneering advancements in eye surgery. I decided to have a multifocal lens implanted, understanding that the risk involved was comparable to a standard lens replacement, and I'm thrilled with the outcome.
It has now been five weeks since my surgery, and following an eye test yesterday, my vision in my left eye is a remarkable 20/20 – an outcome that has far exceeded my highest expectations. This newfound clarity has already made a significant positive impact on my daily life.
In conclusion, I can unequivocally assure anyone considering this procedure that you will feel absolutely nothing during the surgery, nor will you see anything. Should you harbour any anxieties whatsoever, I wholeheartedly recommend the London Vision Clinic. Their follow-up care is exceptionally well-managed, and the professionalism of the entire team is truly a perfect 10/10. Thank you, LVC, for giving me back a quality of life I thought was no longer possible.
