Short sight

Just over a month ago I had Lasik to correct my short sighted vision is both eyes. The operation itself was extremely straightforward and all the staff have been extremely helpful in all my follow up appointments since. A fully recommend Accuvision and the procedure itself to anyone considering having this done.

Hi I would just like to email to say thank you for the wonderful service I’ve received at your Wetherby clinic.
I was reassured throughout had all my questions answered and taken through step by step.
Simon in particular who was my consultant has been very kind and accommodating and even stayed past closing time when I was stuck in traffic and running late to see me. Thank you again I will recommend you to others. 

These guys are amazing. Went to three different clinics, choosing Accuvision over the competitors was the easiest and best decision I made. They took all the stress out of the procedure from start to finish. Customer service was excellent and by the time the surgery came around I felt it wasn’t just a bunch of strangers carrying out life changing surgery. I had astigmatism and was short sighted. Because of my age I opted for mono-vision to give me the best chance of being totally glasses free. At the consultation they gave me a supply of contact lenses to simulate the outcome. I was amazed at how quick and painless the procedure was I swear it was literally less than 3 minutes per eye – if I could have blinked I would have missed it!! The surgical team are legends. Each had a precise role in the treatment room to minimise operating time so there is no waiting for one surgeon to carry out the various stages. That was three weeks ago today, my eyes are amazing. I can now read letters below the 20/20 line on the chart and still read a book. Healing didn’t take very long, they felt a bit dry and gritty for the first few days but that gets better has time goes on. So basically if you are thinking of having eye surgery Accuvision are amazing and I highly recommend trusting them with your precious eyes.

I was more than happy with the service at the Accuvision. Staff were friendly and very supportive during the procedure as well as during the aftercare. I would definitely recommend using this clinic to anyone thinking about the laser eye surgery.

I have been wearing glasses pretty much for the last 16 years and simply could not live without them. Having moved on to contact lenses, it was a great feeling as with all the sports I play, there was freedom from the glasses. Contact lenses still did not give you the full comfort with dust and getting dry. Having had my LASIK done, it does feel that I am living a whole new life with all the freedom from glasses and contacts. I still cannot imagine that this is the real world and not just a dream. Any person considering any form of laser correction, I would highly recommend it. Staff at the London clinic make you feel at home and make sure you are calm and no nerves… very welcoming so a huge shout out to you guys! Thank you for every thing and keep the good work up.

I had my surgery just over a month ago. Clinical team kept on saying my vision shall improve as it takes a few months to be at the best. One of my eyes is a little blurry even after the surgery. However i do not need to wear glasses or contact lenses and i have good enough vision to driving standards. A little disappointed that one of my eyes is slightly blurry. I know laser does not guarantee 100% 20/20 vision. Im glad i paid for it at the summer offer price rather than paying full and then being ever more disappointed! Overall, it feels great to wake up to be able to see 🙂

I had been wearing glasses due to my short sightedness since my teens. In my early twenties I started wearing contacts, although I usually wore them over the weekends/occasions. Therefore majority of the time I wore my glasses. I had been thinking about laser eye surgery for some time and like everyone else, it was a daunting prospect. My twin sister had hers done earlier this year and everything seemed to go well for her and I had an idea of what went on, as I attended the consultation and the surgery day with her. I had three consultations before I made the decision of who to go with. Two of these were high street clinics and the third being Accuvision. My gut feeling was to go with Accuvision, I felt as though I was given all the relevant information with Accuvision and overall they were the cheapest option (although as everyone would agree, the price was not the main factor of my decision). On the day of the surgery I was surprisingly relaxed. I had the surgery and I was in there for about 15 minutes (left eye -3.00 right eye -2.75 with some stigmatisim). I felt no pain other than pressure on my eyes, when the surgeon was creating the flap. Immediately after my surgery I took some pain killers, preparing for the pain which was to come. My sister complained of her eyes stinging and hurting quite a lot. However I was very lucky not to have neither. Other than my eyes being watery, I was waiting for the discomfort but nothing came. I rested most of the day and ensured I kept on top of the eye drops as instructed. By the next day, my vision started clearing for me and I knew it worked!!! I have also not suffered from dry eyes and had my 4 week appointment with Accuvision last week and can say with satisfaction that I have better than 20:20 vision. There is no feeling like it and if I was to describe it, I would say I feel liberated. I cannot thank Accuvision enough and would sincerely like to thank Kareena and Simon (Wetherby clinic). I would recommend them to anyone wanting to have the surgery done. They were absolutely fantastic. Thank you Miss Arif

So pleased I had my eyes treated. The whole service from start to finish is excellent with helpful and friendly staff.

I had my surgery last week and I strongly recommend this clinic. I have had consultations elsewhere but was sceptical as eyes are very valuable and I only wanted entrust my eyes to someone I had faith in. The consultation was well informed and I had all my questions answered in detail. I was not chased or called I was simply allowed to make up my mind. The staff were very friendly and made me feel at ease. On the day of surgery everything was checked again should any changes have occurred with my sight and then I was taken into theatre. The surgery itself lasted only 5 mins per eye and was not painful as all my eyes were numbed with drops and then I was told to look at a flashing light whilst the laser did its job. I was aware of what was happening but this not painful just uncomfortable. Once I got up I could see better straight away and was able to focus on something in the room and read the fine print. The feeling was just as if I had been poked in the eye and I wanted to sleep that is the only way I can describe it but by the evening I was fine. When I went back to have the bandage lenses removed I had better than 20/20 vision less than 48 hours after surgery previously I was about -2.25 in each eye. This is by far one of the best thing I have ever had done I wish I’d had it done sooner as I’ve been wearing glasses since the age of 11. Everyday I wake up and I feel my sight is improving and the halos I experienced the next few days have disappeared very pleased with the service I can’t thank the surgeons enough they were very friendly especially the one who held my hand as I’m a bit of a wimp.
