Accuvision Laser Eye Clinic

I went to Accuvision after a friend of mine and his father had the procedure. They both had pretty poor eye sight prior to the operation, and have been very vocal about how well everything went and how well looked after they were. My own prescription pre-op was -4.5 left eye and -2.5 in the right, so the stigmatism was quite bad. The consultation was very detailed and professional. In fact, they actually found a fault with my spectacles that no one else had picked up. I had the procedure on a Friday morning and it was a very efficient, professional and friendly service. There was no discomfort post-op and my eyesight was back to the pre-op corrected level by the evening. 5 days later and I can read the 20-20 line on an eye chart, the incision has healed and there’s no discernable defect in either eye. I am extremely impressed with the people, process and results and would highly recommend that you at least have a consultation with Accuvision.

I've been thinking about having laser treatment for around 2 years. After visiting 2 other well known clinics, I found Accuvision in Solihull Birmingham to be the right one for me. It was the cheapest and they also made me feel valued rather than just a number or statistic.I felt more comfortable after the intial consultaion and confident they would look after me.I was nervous before I had the laser treatment, but the surgeons and the staff looked after me and I can't fault the service. The procedure literally was over in 10 minutes and was painless. My perscription before surgery was -3.50 in both eyes and now it is virtually perfect. I received the treatment on a Thursday and was driving again by Saturday. I strongly recommend if you are considering laser eye treatment, visit Accuvision for a consultation. The team will look after you. Thank you Accuvision, I can now see my family without looking through glasses.

I had my eye surgery in July 2007 and it was the best thing I have done!! The results are truely amazing and the care and attention to detail and service given by the staff was fantastic. Jeni

I had surgery at Parsons Green in London. The service was quick, efficient, utterly painless and in my view excellent value for money. I wish I had it done years ago. I read in my work a lot, and use computer screens regularly. It is unbelievable what a difference this has made to my life. I have now even forgotten that I wore glasses. My main worry was the thought of someone touching my eyes. Because of the anaesthetic you do not even feel that. You are reassured throughout and the actual surgery takes seconds per eye. As soon as I came out the room (a few minutes after the surgery) I could read a TV screen graphics several feet away. It was more like witchcraft than surgery!! Although for many the cost seems a bit high, I was spending about £350 at least a year on glasses and prescription sunglasses. But the personal benefit is priceless. I have already recommended to a number of people to go and get it done at accuvision. Their staff were wonderful. While I was in the surgery, a chap came in and had his initial examination. They offered to do his eyes there and then as it was a surgery day and they had a space. What a service! Imagine going in to have an exam and coming out without specs? If you are thinking about it, stop thinking and do it. You will never regret it. Thanks, Accuvision.

I visited Accuvision in Solihull last week for my initial consultation after researching several clinics and readig all the Health Care Commision Reports. Accuvision scored very highly especially in the standard of their surgeons. I have booked surgery for September 25th. So far i am very impressed by the clinic with my only negative comment being the layout of the reception area, I did feel like I had to wander about to find reception as it was in a room off the waiting area, however I think this is down to the lack of overall space in the premises. At the end of the day though who cares about reception desks as long as they do a great job! the optomerist(?) I met with was excellent, vry thorough and patient answering questions he must have a million times before. After the consultation the Receptionist talked me through the booking procedure etc and was very soft sell with no pressure at all to book there and then, which was nice. I will update you after next Tuesday.

Review of Accuvision - Fulham Branch I always dreamt of waking up in the morning and being able to see without the aid of glasses. After wearing glasses (and contacts) for over 22 years, a chat with my Brother and Sister in law persuaded me to have the consultation. Last Friday (7th Sept), I finally plucked up the courage to have the surgery. I was quite nervous but I needn't have been as the staff throughout were professional. They relaxed me by talking to me throughout the short procedure (the actual surgery taking approximately 5 mins an eye). It was painless and after it was done I wondered why I had screwed myself up so much. The fear of the unknown I guess. Revisiting the waiting room after surgery was surreal as the need for glasses no longer existed! I am now 2 days on from surgery and I am so pleased with the outcome. I would throughly recommend the procedure to anyone and thank Accuvision for changing my life. Today (13th Sept, I have just been for my week check up and have been told that my vision is 20/20 and could get better. A dream come true and all down to Accuvision. Rob Randall

4 months down the line - vision is excellent, slightly dry eyes when I wake up, but no other problems. Go for it!

I researched Lasik Surgery thoroughly and have been patiently waiting for the right service to suit me, after wearing contact lenses for more than 30 years. Accuvision Solihull arranged the suitablility tests on the morning of 26.07.07 and 1 had the surgery an hour later, by my request, because I find the waiting is the worst. The results are brilliant. My dominant eye is now better than 20/20, before it was -4. My left eye has not been fully corrected - this way I have perfect vision close up! I very quickly got use to the separate strengths of vision in my eyes and it means I don't have to wear reading glasses. Also I am lucky because I had dry eyes before surgery - I know its only been 5 weeks, but I have great vision and no dry eyes! Solihull has specific days when surgery is carried out, so several clients are in the waiting room together. I found it reassuring to see others return from surgery (less than 5 minutes) and wait until they were recalled for their final check before returning home. There were clients there who had had surgery the day before, the week before and the month before. You could guess which was which by the width of their smiles! YES, our eyes are so sensitive any thought of something touching them, never mind a laser, is a bit frightening! You have to have total trust in the clinic you choose. My Accuvision surgeon was great, precise and positive. He talked me through the whole 5 minutes I was with him. It didn't hurt at all - Course I was frightened, there was this red light and a funny smell and 10 seconds of slight pressure! But you know, when he said "That's great, now we'll do the other eye." I felt, 'That was a piece of cake" I can do this! I was thanked for trusting the surgeon with my eyes. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending these guys to any of my clients, friends or family. They are professional in their care, ABILITY and concern of all their clients. Don't forget, of course the surgery is of vital importance, but it goes hand in hand with the honesty of what can and cannot be achieved, what the consequences are likely to be and the aftercare programme. In time, and I hope its a long time - my eyes will naturally need reading glasses and unfortunately surgery cannot correct this. When this happens I won't hesitate to return to Accuvision to fully correct my left eye so that I will have 20/20 long sight. I hope all the Solihull staff will still be there then... you can't improve on perfection.

I had lasik in June 2002 and I have just had an eye check up on 28th August 2007, 5 years later and I have 20/20 vision in both eyes which is wonderful. I was told after my surgery my eyes were one line better than 20/20 but that I need not worry as that is just a trace and the eyes will not flucuate any lower but every few years will go back to a line better than 20/20 and then may go back to 20/20 again but not any lower which is great so whatever happens I know I will have 20/20 vision and that the vision won't get worse. Before surgery I had very poor vision, approx -6 and -7 and even with my glasses I never had 20/20 vision, I was one line below 20/20 before the op with my glasses or contact lenses. My eyes have never felt better, I have no side effects, and colours are still so much brighter and everything so much clearer, a whole new world. Eyes are priceless and to this day I am so happy I trusted Accusion with my eyes, it is truly the best place. It is fantastic to be able to wake up and see and I am so grateful that I was given this opportunity and thank the surgeon Mr Jacobs and the whole Team. Darius saw me when I came for a check up and recognised me after all those years, remembering all my questions and nerves, even though I trusted Accusion I couldn't help feeling nervous but have never regretted trusting Accusion with my eyes. Anyone who is thinking of eye surgery please don't even consider having it done anywhere else other than Accusion. Thank you all again from the bottom of my heart.

The team at Parsons Green are fantastic,everyone is so professional and caring. The surgery although a little weird,didn't hurt and only took a few minutes. I now have better than 20:20 vision!
