1. Review of Centre for Sight Clinic
Centre for Sight is a long-standing and renowned eye surgery clinic, with three practices in London, Surrey and West Sussex. Its leading consultant eye surgeon, Mr Sheraz Daya, founded the clinic way back in 1996 with a clear mission: provide exemplary eye care to patients in facilities that are purpose-built with their needs in mind.
What makes Centre for Sight different? Centre for Sight is based on Mr Daya’s vision that better surroundings can provide a higher standard of care. Today patients get to enjoy a spa-like or luxury hotel experience, rather than the dread of most hospital surgeries.
Is there anything else I should know? As you’d expect then, this clinic also comes with the price tag that accompanies a five-star experience. Yes, the facilities are kitted out with high-end diagnostic tech and quality lenses, backed up by a team of highly trained staff. But you leave all the fancy atmosphere behind the moment you step outside the clinic, and it won’t be a priority for everyone.

Centre For Sight Reviews
Shirley Livingstone
Immediate improvement in vision both near and distant. Need for spectacles eliminated.

I had my surgery a couple of days ago and my experience with Centre for Sight so far has been an extremely good one. Everyone at the centre has been very helpful and friendly and the whole process has been smooth and efficient.

I waited 20 years for this! Back in 1988 - only PRK was available and it was largely experimental with no guarantee of outcomes. Ten years later, Lasik is available but I had real concerns over the potential complications - many of which where associated with mechanical cutting of the flap using a microkeratome. The possibility of "button-holing" or imperfect flap alignment causing optical irregularities just wasn't worth the risk - IMHO. I finally had IntraLasik eye surgery on 3rd December 2007. IntraLasik uses a laser to cut the flap - considerably more precisely and cleanly than a mechanical method. Previously -6.75 short-sighted in both eyes, I now have one line better than 20/20 vision in each eye with 2 lines better on both eyes! I see like a hawk in complete technicolour high-definition! I researched carefully and chose Mr Sheraz Daya at The Centre for Sight. He is clearly at the top of his profession - and one of only 3 advisors to Bausch & Lomb, who make the advanced Zyoptix Laser. The team at Centre for Sight were excellent! Real professionals who were very thorough in their assessment and made me feel welcome and comfortable all of the time. The surgery went extremely smoothly and it felt like it was all done in less than 20 minutes! I didn't feel a thing. Afterwards my eyes watered for about 3 hours (it felt like I was frying onions). You're advised to keep your eyes shut during this time and to take a nap - which I did as soon as I got home. After my nap - I felt a slight grittiness in both eyes (similar to that you feel if you've left your contact lenses in too long). Next day any pain and discomfort had totally disappeared - and I was driving by the end of the day! I couldn't get over how well I could see! In fact for the week following my operation I was falling asleep by 9pm most evenings - exhausted from the amount of new visual information I'm now processing! I had some concerns about potentially having worse night vision caused by halos and starbursts from bright lights. These were totally unfounded - I haven't noticed any difference, and if anything my night vision has improved with better contrast and accuracy of vision. So - I can't recommend Mr Sheraz Daya and The Centre for Sight strongly enough. I love my new eyes - and the freedom that goes with them! It was worth the 20 year wait!

The entire experience at Centre for Sight has been excellent. Everything has been explained in understandable detail up until surgery. Surgery was quick, pain free and I was amazed at my vision immediately after surgery. Aftercare was also explained well and easy to carry out.
Amanda Donaldson
As always, Mr Daya and his team have been most professional and proficient in their work and patient care both before and after the procedure.

Mr Sheraz Daya and his excellent team at the Centre for Sight have given me the precious gift of a glasses-free existence. As an ophthalmologist myself, I can say that this gift was delivered with all the experience, accuracy, precision and safety that I would demand for my own and my patients' eyes. Having been assessed as suitable for IntraLASIK treatment, I underwent the procedure with the utmost confidence that I would achieve the best possible visual outcome, with very little risk. This has since proven to be the case. You only have one set of eyes, and no matter what reason you are undertaking refractive surgery for, the choice of institution should be of the utmost importance. I cannot recommend Centre for Sight highly enough.
Amanda Haran
Excellent service all round. Have made several recommendations since. Could have done just done with extra tranquiliser if possible for after treatment! (a bit of a wimp!!)
Keren Moore
Very pleased with the service and care of all.
Angela Pullen
I found the whole experience from first consultation to first follow-up very efficient and positive and the staff friendly and understanding. I am delighted with my "new" sight!
Chantal Halford
Definitely think that it is worth paying the extra over the "chain" laser centres. You get what you pay for with peace of mind. Have no hesitation recommending Centre for Sight to my friends who have used me as the guinea pig! Thanks a million. Hope I get out of the habit of reaching for my glasses in the morning soon!
Vandana Shah
Excellent professional service from the whole team.
