St. James Laser Vision

Mr. Morrell and his team thoroughly looked after me, and I knew I was in safe hands. A top class service from start to finish. Delighted.

After doing research on Laser treatment I am so pleased I decided to choose St James, both staff and consultants are very caring and made me feel comfortable throughout. James Ball is most Proffessional and caring, he explained everything before and during the operation. I was most impressed with the before and after care received and would highly reccommend and encourage anyone who is thinking of having Laser surgery to go to ST James.

The whole experience at St James's Laser Vision has been excellent. From the receptionist to Mr Morrell, the surgeon, I was made to feel comfortable and confident about all aspects of the treatment. The outcome has proved even better than my expectations. I have gone from a +8 prescription in both eyes to 20:20 vision without the need for any glasses. The joy of waking up in the morning and being able to see is just fantastic. Its now 14 months since the operation. The aftercare has been excellent and I have now been discharged as a very satisfied patient.

Excellent service and results. would recommend their service to anyone who is looking for corrective eye surgery. Probably not the cheapest but possibly the best..

I'd worn glasses since I was 11 and had a strong prescription (-5.25 & -6.75 and astigmatism in one eye) so as soon as I turned 21 I wanted laser surgery. I'd saved up for it in previous years so cost wasn't my priority. After doing research I saw St James had lots of good reviews and the latest technology, and as I was realistic about cost, wasn't expecting the '£395 per eye' most high street chains promise. My consultation was really helpful and I didn't feel pressuriesed to have the surgery. I had lots of thorough tests and I got to spend a good half an hour discussing my options with Mr Ball, which meant any concerns I had were put to rest, but I also was told honestly about any risks to be aware of. I was then told I suitable for surgery. They said to go away and tink about it but after thinking about it for over 2 years, and after the brilliant service I received on my consulation, I phoned that afternoon and made an apointment. The surgery itself wasn't as bad as I thought,a little unconfortable but I got lots of reassurance throughout and if anything it was just a really wierd experience. I had lasek which (I think) is a bit more intrusive than lasik so my healing time was longer and experienced about 3 days of uncomfort and irritation. I was back at work 5 days after having it done. Under 3 months on and my dry eye has almost completely disappeared, I have 20/20 vision, in fact I probably see better than most people who don't need glasses. The after care is great, your given lots of drops and check ups. I can't explain how amazing it is to be able to see this well after having such a strong prescription and always relying on my glasses or contacts. It is definitely worth the money. I'd say don't be swayed by high street chains discounts because for something as important as your eyes you want the best care and I definitely felt I go it at St James. Thanks to everyone there.

Excellent eye centre, Mr Morrell a top consultant, who gave great care and attention to my concerns. The staff and consultants were excellent throughout my consultation and treatment. It is lovely not to have to get up in the morning with blurred vision. After care was excellent. Would not hesitate to recommend this centre to my friends and family.

I only had my right eye corrected as I had excellent near sight vision and did not want to have to wear glasses for reading. This has worked perfectly for me and I am enjoying distance views with perfect vision. I only wish I had had this done earlier.

When I was considering having my eyes lasered I had to be sure I was putting my sight in the hands of someone who was an expert. After all sight is a very precious thing. My surgeon was Mr Ball - a true professional and a gentleman - someone who is concerned with giving the patient the best sight possible. I had surgery on both eyes at the same time - it was completely painless and was over in a flash! My recovery time was fairly rapid and the results are out of this world. If you're in any doubt about coming to St James Laser Vision then check out the qualifications, experience, professional standing and reviews of the surgeons here as they are experts in their field. Nothing less than this is worth the risk.

I was longsighted with a prescription of 4.75 and most high street clinics said I needed far more expensive treatment in Manchester which isn't good as I live in Leeds. Mr Ball was able to offer Lasek and my vision was vastly improved immediately and, one week on, is 20/20. No pain at all despite a great gain. Mr Ball, the Consultant Surgeon who carried out my procedure, is more concerned with quality of the work and you being confident than the finances. This is not the feeling I got from other clinics who spent more time discussing finances and potential discounts than they did the procedure and the benefits.

All I can do is confirm the comments that have been made in previous reviews are true! A totally professional team, who inspire confidence and provide thoroughly outstanding care.Having worn monovision contact lenses for years (ie one eye for reading and one for distance) Mr Ball informed me that this could be replicated with surgery. I went ahead in November 2009 and can honestly say I have had no problems at all. I could drive the following day, can read without glasses AND see for miles! After a lifetime of glasses and contact lenses I only wish I'd done this earlier.I would have no hesitation in recommending St James's Laser Vision.
