I was always nervous at the thought of having laser surgery as my prescription was very poor and my optician had advised it might not be a good option for me. I went for a consultation and was told that I was not eligible for las ...Read more

I booked my consultation at viewpoint after a recommendation from my optician. After the initial consultation I decided to go ahead with the wavefront guided lasik eye surgery.

At the time of the surgery my right eye seemed to take forever and it was discomforting. That day my eyes were extremely sore and I had a severe headache. Once I attended my follow-up I was told my vision was 20/20. I didn’t believe this to be correct as I was still struggling with my vision. I then decided to book myself in at my optician and have an eye test which resulted in -0.75 in both eyes. After discussing this with my surgeon I was advised the opticians are only telling me this to sell me glasses. However I continued to struggle with my vision in dim lighting and at night.

It has been just over 2 years since my eye surgery and I have had another eye test at my opticians who have now confirmed my vision is -1.0 in both eyes. My optician stated I was becoming short sighted again and also informed me they have stopped referring customers to viewpoint after they had failed to honour their incentive for referring patients. I then contacted viewpoint who said I had been discharged so it wasn’t there responsibility and it would cost me £80 to have my eyes checked again. I thought this was ridiculous after being an existing patient.

I really should have known better as when I had my initial consultation there was a customer arguing over the phone who wasn’t happy with their surgery. Then when I had my surgery there was another angry customer on the telephone and again the surgeon was claiming it was not his responsibility as the patient had been discharged. I could have pulled out at this stage and looking back now I would have done if given the opportunity again. On one occasion for my follow-up I had travelled all the way to Manchester only to find the clinic closed and my appointment completely forgotten about. I found this very unprofessional.

I advise anyone considering any form of eye surgery to avoid viewpoint at all costs. Even my optician has stopped referring patients to viewpoint after complaints. Viewpoint have since moved to St Helen’s Hospital, St Helens. Please, please beware of this clinic.

I am planning on getting LASIK with wavefront done on both my eyes and I have my consultation with a surgeon in Viewpoint next saturday. Everything sounds good but I am a bit concerned about their prices.. how come they are so low?? Are they missing something out? £499 per eye with wavefront is too cheap! If anyone can shed some light on this, it would be invaluable to me.

In reply to Ramits question I would like to answer with the following; I had surgery with them a year ago and can vouch for them 100% Their equipment is state of the art and the surgeons amongst the best in Britain. The aftercare I received was and still is excellent. I am always made to feel very welcome whenever I pop in. I have no hesitation at all in recommending them to you. In fact I think that because the company is small, it is more personal and friendly without compromising the treatment in any way. I had also had check ups at high street clinics and chose this one as they made me feel the most comfortable and educated about what they were offering. They also explained the reason for offering my type of treatment against any of the others on the market. Please feel free to contact me again if needed as I know it is a frightening time just the thought of having any treatment done on your eyes. Hope this helps. Lesley
