Please Talk Us Through The Procedure Of Laser Eye Surgery and the lasting effects it can have…

“The laser eye technology we use, LASIK, is revolutionary and is suitable for over 90% of patients. This means that we can now treat those they may have been turned away by other clinics due to their complex prescription, referring to those with blended vision who struggle with short and long distance.

Using the laser, we create a very thin, circular flap of tissue in the outer cornea; the laser then removes a precise, pre-set amount of cornea tissue. This flap is then replaced and instantly held in place by the natural processes of the eye and heals within a few hours. This procedure lasts no longer than 15 minutes and the discomfort is minimal and the effects in some cases can be instant, with crystal clear vision taking effect within 24 hours.

It’s a huge impact for anyone used to glasses and I have had many patients saying they wish they had done it sooner! The lasting effects are life changing and what’s great is that health wise, you have no scarring and no pain due to our highly specific, high energy laser.”

What Is Your Advice To Those Seeking More Information About Laser Surgery?

“Well, naturally we believe in offering an unrivalled standard of care and service, with a rigorous and detailed assessment of prescription before any procedure. The beauty of our service is that we are very thorough, presenting clients with all the necessary records and information, which ensures that our safety procedures are unmatched. Yet, it’s important to look at the range of options and understand what laser surgery is all about and what it could do for you, so do your research.

For those who have preconceptions, seek out as much information as possible and find out the facts rather than go on someone else’s experience. The thing to remember is that everyone’s eyes are completely unique and the best way to see if laser surgery is for you is to take advantage of the free consultations available in most clinics, where you can ask as many questions as possible, with no pressure to commit.

So, my best advice would to be stop thinking, seek out the facts and book an assessment, as most patients actually regret not doing it years before!”

How Does Your Clinic Stay Ahead Of The Rest And What Do You Think The Future Holds For Laser Eye Surgery?

“We are very unique in the way we work, as we have a very dedicated and effective research team within the clinic, all funded by the profits from the clinic itself. This allows us to use the most sophisticated technology available and enhance it further with our team of experts. We hand-select every piece of equipment we use and no other clinic can boast of our advances and techniques, plus our award-winning technology has now being adopted by the world’s leading optics manufacturer, Carl Zeiss.

As for the future, I think that we’ll move forward even further and the technology we are using now will become available in other clinics worldwide within a few years. However, by that time, we’ll be using something more effective, more advanced and better!”
