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.

Immediate improvement in vision both near and distant. Need for spectacles eliminated.

I cannot recommend Mr. Daya and Centre for Sight highly enough. Mr. Daya was recommended to me by my optician in Reigate when I first considered laser eye surgery. This followed an episode of a severe reaction to a change in contact lens solutions and the realisation that I wanted to do away with glasses and contact lenses. I did a lot of research on the subject and the various companies offering laser surgery. To gain a balanced view I also consulted Ultralase in Guildford. Whilst Ultralase appeared very good, CFS, to my mind, were head and shoulders above Ultralase, the reasons being: At my initial consultation with CFS, as well as undergoing a battery of tests, I met Mr Daya, the surgeon, who explained the procedure in detail and answered my questions. Mr. Daya appears to be a man at the top of his game which persuaded me this was the man I wished to entrust with my sight. My consultation with Ultralase was conducted by a consultant – essentially a sales person. Whilst I underwent a similar battery of tests (which seemed a little less thorough than the CFS) and met with qualified Technicians I did not get the same level of comfort. To be fair to Ultralase they did say that I could return to meet the surgeon if I wished. The main difference between CFS and Ultralase was that the latter offered 3 standards of service, effectively bronze, silver and gold with prices to match. I am at a loss to understand how any surgeon could offer anything other than the best and would be prepared to compromise treatment for the sake of a few hundred pound. The impression I got from Mr. Daya (and I asked him about this) is that CFS assesses the best treatment for a patient – there is no tiered service. Incidentally CFS was cheaper than the quote from Ultralase, although for me, price was not as issue. The results some 48 hours post-procedure are fabulous and I am told, my sight should improve over the next few months. The procedure itself was virtually pain-free; certainly no worse than a visit to the dentist. At worst there was some mild discomfort but the end results more than justify the discomfort. Lastly a big thank you to everyone at CFS. I have visited both locations and everyone has been tremendously professional and helpful. Many thanks.

The entire experience from consultation, to surgery and follow up has been flawless. The surroundings and the very supportive staff ensure that you feel completely relaxed, welcome and reassured. Given that Sheraz Daya is renowned as the best eye surgeon, working with Bausch and Lomb technology I would recommend Centre for Sight to anyone.
Robert Bailey
Centre for Sight and Mr. Saj Khan were outstanding. The initial biometry tests and consultation provided an exact set of measurements upon which to base advice – both for the procedure, and to be sure of the correct Intraocular lens (IOL) implants for me. My optician Mr. Sam Silver (The Eye Store, Twickenham) encouraged me to my own research, including being clear on the aspects of sight most important to me for my lifestyle and activities. I felt throughout that the surgeon Mr. Khan, the Centre for Sight staff and technicians, and I, were working in partnership. The surgery at their high-tech centre near East Grinstead worked in the same manner – professional and thorough throughout. As a patient I have my role to play in the recovery – the Centre for Sight were clear on the activities and medication I had to administer and this also essential in achieving a fully successful outcome, especially with the CrystaLens AO implant, which requires precise placement. It is amazing to have an operation at my age (67) which restores so much of a function, as opposed to fixing a problem. I would like to thank the Centre for Sight team, and especially Mr. Saj Khan, for being so professional in all they do. The price is a very cost-effective packaged amount; the service is bespoke.
