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. And here is Philip Schofield talking about his surgery on ITV’s This Morning Show

London Vision Clinic were the only laser eye surgery provider that were willing to take on my longsighted prescription, and now, 3 months after having that surgery, I am extremely satisfied.I had been reading about laser eye surgery for years - and understood going into it the significant risks. There are plenty of personal experiences you'll read from others and they cover the entire range. People unhappy, people ecstatic. Ultimately, everyone's eyes are different, and if you're reading this thinking "Is this right for me?", you should probably call them and have professionals guide you through it./Yes/, as a business they want your custom, but also, they won't take on any job that to them, is a risk to their image. That goes for any self-respecting surgery, and London Vision Clinic takes the job seriously.The entire process leading up to surgery is smooth. You'll be subjected to many measurements and tests, but it's all quite quick, and their procedure is polished. (Seriously, you'll be amazed at how quick they're able to take those measurements) You're given plenty of opportunity to ask questions, time to think, and the staff are universally friendly and approachable.My surgery went great. The first day of recovery sucked, but the very next day I was already feeling comfortable with my new eyesight. Sleeping at night was definitely a challenge with the eye shield on!The recovery has been totally smooth, despite becoming quite ill just a week after the surgery. Their instructions are clear, you are given a fully-stocked care kit, and you're able to get advice when you need it.Now, my eyesight is better than what they expected, has stabilized, and my night vision is frankly, no different than it was before surgery. I have some remaining dryness when waking up, but that seems to be getting better with time.My gratitude for the whole team at London Vision Clinic for taking care of me and fixing my vision.

I had SMILE surgery at London Vision Clinic in December '22 to treat my heavy astigmatism and mild-heavy short sight. I was amazed with the process and the recovery. My vision after 24 hours was perfect, and extremely surprisingly to me (having read a lot of reviews and forum threads) I had no discomfort at all following the surgery - no itchiness, no pain at all. I continued using the drops as prescribed until the 2 month point where I no longer felt they were needed at all. At 3 months, my vision is still excellent and I have no issues at all. This is an amazing procedure at an excellent clinic. Do not delay any further, get it - you will not regret it.

I was going to leave it a few days till after my surgery to review, but I am so so happy with the results I could not leave it any longer. The whole experience I had at London Vision Clinic from start to finish was amazing. I had smile surgery for quite a high prescription (-6 in both eyes) and now have 20:20 vision 24 hours after the surgery. As for the surgery itself, it was super quick, painless and way easier than I ever imagined. All the risks were fully explained to me, and everything that happened throughout the process and the day of surgery was explained to me. I was quite nervous for the day, and all the team and Professor Reinstein treated me with respect and understanding.I am still in shock with my current vision and couldn't be happier - worth every penny and would recommend to anyone in the same situation - I only wish I had done it sooner.

I chose London Vision Clinic as I was long sighted (+4) and most places wouldn’t operate on me. They clearly explained the procedure and risks, and I’m delighted with the results as 3 months on I have 20:20 vision and no need for eye drops either. The aftercare is great too - I’ve been in twice for scheduled check ups.

I can not fault the London Vision Clinic. The whole experience has been wonderful. The procedure itself was utterly painless and quick. The preparation from the team at the clinic and Glenn, the surgeon, meant I was confident and calm going into surgery. The care and attention since the surgery has been really impressive. I have had quick responses to all questions. My vision is fantastic, I can’t recommend the clinic more highly.

I had the LASIK surgery at the end of October 2022 and I can't recommend London Vision Clinic enough. I didn't have the easiest of post-op recovery as it took long time for my eyes to settle down but during all this time, I was given regular care. Prof Reinstein checked with me regularly until he was satisfied that I was out of the woods. Dr. Cheryl helped put my mind at ease with detailed explanation every time I had an appointment.They have shown amazing amount of patience with my same relentless questions over and over again.I can confidently say now that I should've done it sooner. 🙂

I recently had an incredible experience with Dr. Glenn Carp and the team at London Vision Clinic. They completed my surgery in just 10 minutes, and I am now thrilled with my 20:16 vision, which is even better than 20:20! Dr. Carp was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and answered all my questions in detail. His knowledge and expertise in laser eye surgery is beyond compare.I felt completely at ease throughout the entire process, from my initial consultation with Dr. Carp to the surgery itself. He provided me with detailed information about the procedure, the risks and benefits, and any potential side effects. He was also more than happy to answer any follow-up questions I had.The whole process was so much easier than going through regular glasses/contact lens appointments, like I had been doing with Specsavers every 6 months. I was amazed at how quickly the procedure was completed, and how quickly I was able to recover from it. I have noticed a significant improvement in my vision already, and I'm looking forward to seeing even better results in the future.I could not recommend Dr. Carp and London Vision Clinic highly enough. If you are looking for the best laser eye surgery experience, contact Glenn!I hear he is a great skier too!

My road to having laser eye surgery was a long one.I'd wanted LASIK since I was maybe 13, especially because my astigmatism was so bad. The astigmatism in my right eye was -3.50 and I had a borderline/mild astigmatism of -0.75 in the left. (My full prescription was +3.50 and -3.50 astigmatism in my right eye, and -2.50 and an astigmatism of -0.75 in my left eye. Having eventually had PRK at Moorfields, my prescription is now plano in my right eye, and +1 with an astigmatism of -0.50 in my left eye)Contact lenses were much more comfortable in the left eye than the right. So not being able to properly and comfortably wear contact lenses for more than an hour or two was a huge factor.I did enquire at both the LVC and Moorfields. Turned out I had to be 18 (it seems obvious now, but back then I wasn't aware of that) so I decided to wait until I had finished school.Fast forward to July 2019, on a gap year (such bad timing cos of COVID haha) and I came and visited LVC.I came in and had all the tests done (which you pay a deposit for) and initially they were so sure I'd be eligible (like 98% or so of people are) they asked whether we wanted to pay upfront then and there.The guy who did my scans, Alastair Stuart, suspected I may have had Keratocous, and having LASIK if you have keratoconus is a big no no (can possibly leave you visually impaired or blind, I believe). So I had to wait 18 months and come back in Feb 2021.In the interim, they also recommend I see someone who specialises in keratoconus/making specialist contact lenses for keratoconus (who, whilst informing me my eyes were stable, picked up on the fact I had meibomian gland dysfunction; I thought my eyes were 'normal' apart from the prescription/astigmatism but I guess not. I had hot compress treatments and IPL treatments for that which didn't work. I have found my symptoms drastically reduce when I avoid gluten).So I came back in 2021.I had to have an ARTEMIS scan done since they weren't 100% sure of my suitability (I think there's only about 5 of them in the UK or the world or something?) The ARTEMIS scan was weird. I had to have my eyes taped open and you put them in what is essentially a giant goggle filled with saline (one at a time) while a camera whizzes around taking photos of your cornea.Not unpleasant, just a bit weird.I did all that and then I had to do all the tests again.Turns out I was ineligible for LASIK, but potentially eligible for ICL implants. So I had more testing done, and it turns out my anterior chamber was too shallow.The only reason I'm giving 4 stars and not 5, is because even though LVC's website states that PRK is carried out with 5-10% of your patients, but no one actually told me it could have been an option in my case.So, because I had also enquired at Moorfields around about the same time as initially I had at LVC (I must have been about 16) I went and got a second opinion at Moorfields, and ultimately ended up getting PRK done there (after being ruled out again for both LASIK and ICL implants, which I was expecting) with Alex Ionides in April 2022.If I was told I could have had PRK, I 100% would have felt extremely comfortable having it done at LVC; all the staff are brilliant, and lovely, and they have some of the best and most sophisticated testing in the world. It's just a shame I actually wasn't able to get it done there.

Last year, I had SMILE laser vision correction at London Vision Clinic. The recovery was quick and painless. I was able to drive, work, and do other regular activities the next day.The office staff, Amir, Mr Carp and the nurses who assisted with the procedure were all extremely kind and thoughtful.I was extremely transparent with all details and information they provided when I booked. They were also exact to what they had described and sent it over without any surprises. For years I debated whether I wanted to do a Lasik or Smile. I wish I had known that it was painless and so stress-free.Although the surgery took only a few minutes, you can expect to be there for approximately 2 hours. They will let you know when your book is complete. This includes light paperwork, testing, and surgery.Based on my experience, I highly recommend London Vision Clinic.It is amazing to be able see clearly without glasses or contacts, something I never liked.

I only wish I’d heard of Prof Reinstein years ago. The whole process, from initial consultation, through to the actual procedure and on to recent post surgery aftercare has been absolutely amazing. Caring, professional , friendly and thorough. I could not recommend the London Vision Clinic highly enough. For those who might be worried about the surgery and post operative recovery, I’ve had more painful haircuts!!

If anyone is thinking about making the decision to get laser eye surgery, just do it. I cannot thank the staff enough for what they have done for me, from start to finish everything was explained well, I was made to feel so welcome at the surgery and I have been left with vision without the hassle of glasses or contact lenses. I am very glad I decided to do this and wouldn't recommend anywhere else but the London Vision Clinic 🙂

Just from looking through the London Vision Clinic's website you can see they are experts in the field. From initial contact with them, they have provided me with lots and lots of information about their different procedures.On the day of my initial assessment, the staff were super friendly and helpful and although I wasn't a suitable candidate for laser eye, they talked through the other options that were available to me and gave me an information pack to take away and digest. They never rushed me into making a decisions and I was able to ask questions over email to my dedicated care coordinator to help better inform my decision.I chose to go ahead with ICL surgery. The booking of appointments before your surgery for scans and assessments was very easy, and staff were clear about how days before certain appointments you shouldn't wear contact lenses for.I got to me the surgeon before the day of my surgery where I was able to ask questions and go through the procedure. On the day of the actual surgery, again all staff make you feel at ease and you never feel like you're being rushed.Following the successful surgery, I have had close contact with the clinic and have had staff reach out to just check up on how things are going on top of your scheduled follow up appointments. Its now been 7 weeks since my surgery and I absolutely have no regrets!London Vision Clinic acknowledge themselves that they aren't the cheapest option, but then why would you want to take a risk with your eyes. I would have no hesitation is recommending anyone looking for corrective eye surgery to the London Vision Clinic

London Vision Clinic has been absolutely amazing. I am quite long-sighted, and just beyond the prescription limits that most clinics have the capabilities to conduct surgery for, so London Vision Clinic was one of the few that were capable of working with my eyes, and the results were great!I had my ICL surgery done a year ago by Dr. Reinstein. The surgery itself was a little uncomfortable, as with all surgeries, but it didn't hurt, and the surgens were great at making me feel relaxed and comfortable.There have been regular checkups since with my Optometrist Amir, who has been amazing, very kind and professional, making sure my eyes are healthy and always willing to answer any questions I have.After one year of surgery, I have had no issues, and feel that my eyes are better than ever, even more so than when I was wearing glasses.I'm very happy with everything!

I visited London Vision clinic in March 2022 for a consultation of an existing eye problem I had, to see if there was anything that could be done to make my eyesight better. This was after visiting a clinic previously and weighing up the pro’s and con’s of each clinic. I chose London Vision Clinic because of the good reputation, also this clinic was recommended to me by 2 people who had surgery done there. Initially I thought laser surgery would be ideal for me and this was discussed but after extensive examination/discussion of both my eyes, in several appointments, it was revealed that I would need cataract removal with lense replacement due to my complex eye condition which I have been struggling with for many years.I was given all information of findings and what could be done for me, to take away, read and make a decision in my own time. I decided to go ahead with the surgery and contacted the clinic to arrange my appointment.I under went surgery for first eye in December 2022, then returned four weeks later for second eye surgery, both went very well. I was able to see much clearer and reading small print has never been better, no more glasses.It is early days but so far I have no issues. I was treated very well at each visit and staff there were very helpful and pleasant.I would like to say a big thank you to Brendan and Cheryl for all the specialist care they have given me and particularly to Cheryl for the surgery she performed on both my eyes, amazing, I am truly grateful.I would definitely recommend London Vision Clinic to anyone who needs eye surgery, very professional and lovely people.Sandra Dunkley

Every single member of staff i've encountered have been super friendly and personable which made the whole process from start to finish extremely smooth and enjoyable.Fully deserving of every 5-star review they receive here.

I've been wearing contacts/glasses for the past 17 years and always thought about getting laser eye surgery but was a bit nervous in case something went wrong. So i did a ton of research and decided that the SMILE procedure was the best option for me and London Vision Clinic consistently came up as the highest rated.I went to a few other cheaper places for a consultation so I could compare but London Vision Clinic clearly stood out. They were much more thorough and provided me with information that none of the others did. They're also incredible at keeping you up to date and sending reminders etc and the surgeon (Dan Reinstein) even messages me personally to check up on how i am doing. It really does feel like they care and go above and beyond!The operation itself took a few minutes an eye and at no point have i experienced any pain whatsoever. I went back the next day for a check up and the small incision they make with the laser for SMILE had already healed over and i was able to see one line better than 20/20.I've just gone back for my one month checkup and i can now almost see 2 lines better than 20/20 (20/16 i think?) And don't need to use drops anymore. I still have some days slightly blurrier than others when looking at screens but this is normal and will go away over the next few months. I was told to expect about 3 months to fully settle so the fact my vision was better than expected after just one day is amazing!This is easily one of the best decisions I've ever made and wish I'd done it sooner. The freedom this brings is indescribable. Small things like waking up and being able to see or having a shower/swim and not having to take out contacts, the list just goes on and on! So if you're one the fence i really can't recommend it enough and London Vision Clinic is definitely the best place to do it in my eyes!

I had laser eye surgery at London Vision Clinic and I'm very happy with the results. Looking up at the night sky after the surgery and seeing all the stars so clearly and sharply was a very powerful experience for me. It really is a life changing procedure and I am very grateful for being able to see clearly now.The clinic itself did an excellent job from a patient experience perspective. Very professional & friendly. Lots of nice & caring touches in how they look after you through the whole process. I would highly recommend.

I had my laser eye surgery over a month ago and I'm very pleased with the results so far. It's great not to wear glasses anymore. I'm happy I chose London Vision Clinic as the staff is very professional and friendly. My surgeon Mr Carp explained everything to me and made me feel very calm and relaxed (I'm very anxious person). The surgery itself takes only few minutes and you feel nothing. It is a great investment. When I actually calculated how much I have spend on glasses and contact lenses I wasn't far of the price of the surgery so I think its worth it.

I had the SMILE laser eye surgery done to correct mild myopia at the London Vision Clinic and as a result I can now see better than 20/20 thanks to Prof. Dan and his team. The patient care was great from start to finish and I would highly recommend LVC to anyone thinking of getting eye surgery

5 year update: still seeing 20:16!I had LASIK with Prof. Reinstein in Nov. 2017 at the age of 18. I had worn glasses since I was 6 months old, and had a high degree of far-sightedness and astigmatism. I wore contact lenses for about 10 years prior to the surgery, but developed a condition that caused the upper eyelids to be irritated by them - hence I turned to laser!The whole process was great with LVC. Consultation through to the surgery and recovery. Everyone was excellent and not once did I feel like I was getting anything less than 100% the best medical care. The risks were explained to me, and Reinstein was an excellent surgeon. Of course, the surgery was a bit nerve wracking but it was bearable and you feel very little. After having the operation my eyesight quickly recovered and I haven't had any issues with any side effects since.5 years later and my vision to me is perfect. I stare at a screen all day without any issues. My experience with LVC was so good that both of my parents in fact did the laser blended vision with Reinstein in the following years - both with good outcomes!Subsequently I have even been to see Prof. Reinstein play saxophone at the 606 club 🙂

Over 7 years ago I had laser eye surgery preformed here by Professor Reinstein. I was short sighted prior to the treatment and the after treatment had excellent vision. I found the aftercare treatment really accessible and helpful. I feel really grateful for the treatment and results obtained. I want to really thank all the staff at London Vison clinic for their excellent work.
ThIs has to be one of the slickest, most professional , and thorough experiences I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The level of care and experience and follow up after surgery is on another level. Highly recommended. Although I have to say after one year my short sight has worsened where Im wearing glasses again and they told me nothing could be done. Just be mindful that this can happen. Generally though the eyes are amazing and te service is unreal.Spencer Wilson

After very successful treatment at the London Vision Clinic 12 years ago for my short sight I needed to have my reading vision corrected this year. The process was superbly run by the team who are both knowledgable and very professional and last week I had the procedure. In less than 24 hours I no longer needed glasses to read and once again I can work on the laptop AND watch TV at the same time.The procedure was fully explained to me before and during and the extra care you receive really shows you this is the right place to have this done. Mr Carp was great throughout and the results were tested by the team again today and I couldn't be happier.

Great support from everyone in the clinic.Really happy that my eyes can now see without glasses.It’s been 3 months+ since I did Smile. My eyes are almost fully settled down. Just my left eye which has higher perception than my right therefore need a little bit more time. My right eye pretty much 20-20.But overall I can do anything I want including playing rollercoaster and sports and travel.Aftercare is good here including multiple checkups and providing eyes drops as well.Would definitely recommend LVC to others who want to do laser eye surgery.

I have decided to wait until my last but one post op check up before I left a review because history shows most people leave feedback straight after an event good or bad.After checking out many options on where to go to, LVC was the choice because of the after care attention stated.Myself and my wife both had blended vision carried out, one eye for short and one eye for distance.The clinic was professional, friendly and made us feel both at ease. Surgery was pain free, maybe a little pressure on one eye but nothing to moan about.Everything stated so far by the people at LVC is how things have panned out 3 months after the op. Cross blur is subsiding, a little frustrating at times, some days are good some are like you are making two steps forward then two back again, I’m fully expecting to be within the 4 to 9 months stated for the brain to finally work things out for the vision.I work in engineering and work close up all day, so by the time I head home the cross blur seems annoying but soon levels out.Price is a little more expensive than your usual options on the high street but to be honest I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else than LVC for our eyes.Many thanks to the LVC team for a top draw caring service so far.Paul&Sharon

The London Vision Clinic has given me vision that I thought wasn't possible. I found the clinic through a specific hunt for a surgeon who specialised in high prescriptions; thus stumbling across Prof. Reinstein. I was coming from around a -11D in both eyes seeking 20:20 vision if possible. Really just hoping to escape thick glasses or contacts all day every day. I am now three months post SMILE procedure, both eyes able to read the 20:20 if not slightly better than this. Whist this procedure is not possible for everyone with this prescription due to a variety of factors, it was possible for myself and has been a success thus far.The patient care at the clinic was brilliant with all needs catered for. There is a distinctly reassuring and comforting ambiance on the day of surgery that certainly helps with the nerves. The only downfall for myself was the distance to travel to the clinic but thats no fault of their own. Definitely something to consider with the various appointments needed, but by no means a problem in the grand scheme of things considering the life changing work they do.It was difficult to find good information online regarding surgery for 'high profile' prescriptions. But you really don't know what your options are until you have taken the plunge and visited the clinic - so I would strongly advocate you doing so. It is more frightening to not know, and to read endless contradicting articles/ papers on google, than to book in the first visit and truly understand what can be done for you and your eyes. In all honesty I seeked out the clinic and the initial detailed exam in an attempt to find out more about my eye health. It was only after they had done the variety of scans and prescription checks on me that they said that I was eligible for surgery for correction to 20:20 vision which took me by great surprise.I am still very early in my glasses/contact free life. Looking forward to the opportunities that I now have because of this and would like to thank everyone at the London Vision Clinic for their communication, professionalism and expertise throughout my treatment with them.

Worth five stars for the amazing pre and post surgery support as well as the outcome. Vimal, the optometrist was extremely thorough in his pre surgery exams and made sure I was very well informed before I made any decision. Prof Dan Ramstein was so reassuring during surgery; I felt extremely well looked after on the day and immediately afterwards. The post surgery check-ups are equally reassuring. As someone who has considered laser eye surgery for years but wasn't sure, this clinic provided the advice, support and outcome that I wanted.

Once you decide to go with London Vision Clinic, you won't look back.The service from start to finish has been exceptional, the surgery life changing and the aftercare makes you grateful you decided to chose LVC.All steps of the process were clearly explained by Vimal, who answered all of my questions and helped me feel relaxed, informed and looked after - a real asset to the LVC team.Glenn complimented Vimals conversations with an honest walk-through of the procedure, the risks and the benefits - further helping me to feel comfortable and relaxed ahead of going in.The result has been amazing, taking me from a near +7 prescription to something closer to +1 allowing me to navigate day to day life without glasses (but providing me with a pair just in case).I cannot rate the service highly enough - this is why you go with the professionals, they just know exactly what they are doing.Thanks to Glenn, Vimal and the team. Everyone I have dealt with, met at the clinic or spoken to on the phone have been impeccable. My nerves were settles, questions answered and fears allayed - simply put, this is the most positive medical experience I have had, I'm just disappointed I didn't do it sooner

I'd happily recommend London Vision Clinic to any of my friends and family. Couldn't fault the service from start to finish. From the first phone call to the moment I was having surgery I always knew exactly what was going on and what to expect. One of the best decisions I've ever made, wish I'd gone to them sooner.

A life-changing experience, delivered by a top team in a five-star setting. I had Presbyond Laser Blended Vision surgery in August 2022. Right from the start I knew I was in safe hands and I'm delighted with the result of my surgery. For the first time in my life, I can see from 6 inches to 6 miles without glasses or contact lenses. London Vision Clinic are the best in the business. Highly recommended.

I can’t recommend London Vision Clinic enough. All the staff are so friendly and thorough with their care. Everything was explained in great detail to calm any nerves and both the Pre and post surgery care are incredible. The SMILE surgery itself was so quick and painless and I was back at work/driving two days later. The best decision I’ve ever made.

I am very pleased to give a 5 star review of my whole experience at the LVC - from my initial enquiry to the post op follow up. The staff are really well informed, experienced and work so well as a team and the level of care is excellent. The consultations before surgery were very thorough, and Mr Carp explained everything in detail with a clear picture of expectations of what the treatment should achieve. I felt very confident having the procedure and am delighted with the results and after care offered. I would highly recommend the LVC to anyone considering laser eye surgery.

I initially returned to LVC after 10 years as they had wanted to check I didn't have an underlying issue with my eyes. they were the only clinic to pick that up. Therefore I returned and was Very happy with the thorough investigation and tests they did to ensure the safety of the procedure given new technology they could tell that I was a low risk candidate. I am very happy with the service and care they have provided me and so far I can see as expected which is 16:20 vision. THANK YOU!

My experience at London Vision Clinic was seamless from start to finish. The team were super attentive and friendly and made every effort to make sure I was comfortable throughout all appointments. I’d like to thank Olivia, my patient care coordinator, for her support and professionalism as my first point of contact on this journey and also Mr Carp for making me so at ease during surgery and most importantly for giving me the gift of clear vision. I had an extra appointment scheduled to triple check a potential issue with one of my eyes and I appreciate the lengths the team went to to make sure I was 100% eligible and ready for surgery. Would recommend this clinic to anyone looking into laser eye surgery.

It was an amazing experience from start to finish and 24 hours after my painless surgery I was fit to drive. For years I was reluctant as I have very sensitive eyes but it was completely painless and no painful after effects. I only wish I had done this sooner. A*** service all round.

Tip top service from London Vision Clinic. They look after you with so much care throughout the whole experience and stay with you post-op as part of the management plan. I've had such great results and felt safe and in good hands throughout. And I'm loving a glasses free life again.

Background:Having worn glasses for the best part of 20 years, I decided a few years ago that I would start to do some research into laser eye surgery. For me personally it was a big decision, so I wanted to ensure I knew as much about it as possible and had fully researched the procedure and considered the options. My thorough research led me to LVC as one of the leading places to get this done, and five weeks post operation - I can "see" why!Feedback / Summary:1. Pre Procedure - The initial consultation was very helpful for me to understand a bit more about the procedure and the potential options. The consultant was extremely professional and very accommodating - at no point do you feel rushed to make a decision. But naturally there is a window of time between when you get your scans done and when you can have the procedure, however this is plenty big enough if you some deliberation and contemplation time...2. People - All the employees you will meet at LVC are very kind and helpful, putting you at ease throughout the process! I am a firm believer that the highest levels of customer service can't be "trained", instead you need to hire genuinely nice, passionate and highly skilled people and this is what LVC have got in abundance.3. Procedure - The week before my surgery I had a pre surgery consultation with the surgeon - this relaxes you, "personalizes" the surgeon (which is very helpful) and gives you an opportunity to ask any questions. I found the actual surgery very quick and completely pain-free. A few days at home recovering were required for me - but everyone is different, so don't take that for gospel.4. Results - Amazing. Naturally the main benefit is being able to see without the need for glasses. However all the small benefits are just as good (i.e. no droplets or steamy vision in rainy / wintery weather!).If you have made the decision to get laser eye surgery, I would without a doubt recommend you book a consultation with LVC. The cost is marginally more expensive than other places, but the quality of everything throughout is more than worth it!

I recently had cataract surgery in both my eyes and from day one the London Vision Clinic has been a wonderful experience,right through to the aftercare I have received and my follow up appointments. All of those involved, patient coordinator Meghan, Optometrist Amir and Surgeon Jonathan Clarke all of the staff I have been in contact with during my visits have been fantastic. For over 50 years I have been very much reliant on glasses with extremely poor vision,which has now changed. I had a number of appointments due to the complexity of my vision. I felt completely at ease with Jonathan and and the team and they were very confident that even with my poor vision that he would be able to help,and he did. Having cataract surgery with the London Vision Clinic was the best decision I have made and would highly recommend anyone contemplating to go ahead and contact them.

I was looking for clinics offering SMILE procedures in London and London Vision Clinic appeared to be top of the search, and despite being on the pricier side, I'm so thankful that I went with it as the end-to-end process had been simply amazing - from initial consultations (very organised and thorough), actual surgery itself (was only 10-15 mins and most importantly, painless!), to multiple post-op check ups (reassuring my recovery process).I particularly appreciated how LVC aims is to ultimately fix your eye problem with the best possible approach, and do not generally discriminate the pricing of the the various LASIK procedures (like some other clinics) where possible, so you know you're getting the best procedure for your eyes (as I would rather trust the surgeon's recommendation than myself for the same price!)I had Prof Dan as my surgeon and Nabila as optometrist - they were very professional and knowegeable, and had patiently walked through the whole process and addressed all my concerns with the procedure.Also a massive shoutout to the rest of LVC team who had efficiently faciliated the bookings/follow up reminders etc, who had made the whole clinic visits a pleasant experience every time!Mei Teh

I was apprehensive to undergo refractive eye surgery for years, up until I made contact with the London Vision Clinic. The front team have been very friendly, responsive and efficient - Meghan was fantastic. LVC performed multiple initial scans to ensure I was an appropriate candidate for the surgery and following this I had consultations with Brendan and Professor Reinstein, whom were very thorough in their work ups and clear in setting out my expectations. The surgery went ahead smoothly, and I could not recommend Professor Reinstein enough to anyone looking for a competent, calm and highly experienced surgeon. The most wonderful thing about LVC is they make you feel looked after even several months after your surgery, their follow up regime is evidence of that, and they are always there to answer any queries or concerns. Best decision I ever made to go with LVC! Thank you sincerely to the whole team.
