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.
Jo Spinks
Amazing, would recommend it to anyone. Staff and surgeon (Mr.Khan) are excellent.
Jaqueline Fortescue
I have been very pleased with the service provided by the staff, consultant and nurses at Centre for Sight. My queries were answered and procedures explained thoroughly. The treatment it's self was painless and my sight has improved quicker than I expected it to. The only pain was for 2 - 3 hours after the procedure as the anaesthetic wore off. VERY HAPPY!
Sandy Lockyer
The one to one attention from start to finish of consultation. The professionalism of staff. The honesty of the surgeon, no bias. The thoroughness of the consultation. a feeling of trust.
Spencer Silsbury
Generally extremely happy all around. Excellent service, attitude, facilities. I had several consultations at competitors and there was no contest for me. 10 out of 10.
Heather Walker
Fantastic. Life changing. Pain free. Can't believe I hesitated.
Jennifer Kaye
I was desperate to have the treatment done so was very relieved/excited when Mr Daya told me I was suitable for Intralase. My treatment was booked in for the following week but then I started getting very nervous about the procedure itself. Fortunately, the staff at the East Grinstead were great and allowed me to ask all of my questions before I signed my consent form (and paid for the treatment). Thanks to all for making me feel at ease (and Mr Daya for his supreme professionalism). I felt like everything was totally under control at all times. I’ve followed all of the post-op instructions to the letter and so far have had absolutely no problems whatsoever. Just 24 hours on I could read the time on my alarm clock for the fist time in 20 years! I was really pleased to have a follow up appointment the next day for reassurance that everything was ok – and it seems that I have better than 20/20 vision!(although my left eye is still catching up with my right) Thanks again and I would highly recommend Centre For Sight and Mr Daya to anyone considering laser eye treatment.

I felt happier choosing a centre that is a specialist in eye care.
I have friends that have had laser eye surgery at the Centre who were very pleased.
Dr. Mubarika Sami
I find driving very easy after having LASIK, sports is more convenient and apart from initial dry eyes I am very happy. I decided to go to Centre for Sight because Mr. Daya had performed a corrective procedure on my friend after she had Corneal Ectasia from LASIK elsewhere.

I had replacement lenses in March 2015. The cost was £8,500. I had been turned down by other companies for the surgery. I had very poor eyesight in both eyes, and the beginnings of cataracts. All the staff are amazing.
The only complaint that I have is I was encouraged to have Multifocal lenses, after being advised that I was a good candidate. I was not given much information on them beforehand, just watched a video on how they would enable me to read without glasses. None of the pitfalls were pointed out to me.
The problem I encountered almost straight away is that the glare is terrible, I was told that my brain would get used to this, but it didn’t. In December I went back to the centre for sight as I could not see properly, and had the membrane removed from both eyes, which I had been warmed about beforehand. The removal cost another £1,080. Being half price When I returned for a further check a couple of months later, I was told that one of the implants had moved slightly and I could have another procedure on one eye called a PRK treatment, and this would be at half the price of £1000.
I felt I could not pay any more money, and also worried about more surgery on my one good eye. At the moment I am struggling with prescription glasses and sometimes contact lenses. I cannot drive at night without night vision glasses to help with the glare. Even glare from lights in the daytime really affect me. I do see the rings which make up the Multifocal lenses in my eyes, but only when the sun shines on my eyes or they are wet. I squint even with glasses on, and do get double vision sometimes with glasses, but I cannot see to read without them, and even with them I cannot read more a few pages.
I do not regret having the surgery, but just wish the pitfalls had been pointed out to me and I would have opted for the just the normal lenses and had crystal clear vision, even if I wore glasses after, that would have been fine.

My right eye has improved and in time I’m hopeful that it will continue to improve so we’ll see where I am in a year. I came through to Centre for Sight after my internet research together with my pre-existing knowledge.
