This clinic has over 12 years experience in delivering clinical excellence and can guide you through the process every step of the way.
As a private independent clinic, it provides extremely high levels of customer service and personal attention, claiming that over 99% of its patients would recommend it to family and friends.
At your free consultation, Mr Eamonn Hynes, Mr Manoj Mathai or Dr Stephen Doyle will sit down with you and discuss the best way to correct your vision and answer all your questions. These eye doctors have a wealth of experience, having performed over 50,000 procedures between them. This one-to-one time with your treating doctor, as part of your decision making process, is surprisingly rare, and is not offered as standard by many of the other laser eye clinics.
When you come for a consultation at Visualase – you talk to your doctor – not a salesperson. It can be reassuring to meet your doctor in advance, and have your questions answered. What’s more Visualase’s unique blend of the latest technology, surgical skill and patient care are impressive – though some of the top eye clinics in London are even more advanced.
Visualase is on a mission to help more people in the UK enjoy sports, hobbies and holidays, without the hassle and inconvenience of glasses and contact lenses. That’s why it comes fifth in our list of the five best laser eye surgery clinics in Manchester.

I was dealt with by all staff from receptionist to surgeon with professionalism and courtesy. The procedure was fully explained and questions answered. The aftercare was great and gave me appointments to suit my shift patterns at work. Cant fault the whole process.

The staff were fantastic from the first to last consultation. My eyes were -6.25 and after a 10 minute procedure they were 20/20 vision. id like to recomend the clinic to anyone thinking of having the lasic treatment. Again many thanks to all the staff for changing my life .

The treatment i received at the clinic was exceptional.Everyone was so friendly and helpful and explained everything in detail to me.The first consultation at the clinic included a visit to the surgeon Mr. Stephen Doyle.He went through the surgical treatment with me and answered all my questions,this visit was very relaxed and he put me completely at ease.On the day of the surgery all the staff in the clinic were very caring and i was made to feel like a person and not just a number.The surgery was painfree and i was treated extremely well.I was absolutly amazed how much better i could see fifteen minutes after surgery.I returned to the clinic the following day for a check up and i have had various check ups throughout the year.I am delighted with the results and i only wish i had done it sooner.It is brilliant not to have to wear glasses anymore and i would recommend this clinic to anyone considering having laser eye surgery.

My whole experience at Visualase Bolton was nothing short of fantastic! My eyesight wasn't too bad, but I was sick of wearing glasses all the time, sick of taking off the specs on photos at weddings etc and I was getting sore areas on the bridge of my nose.. So I decided to take the plunge! I researched Laser eye surgery for two weeks even went to Optimax in Manchester to find out about procedures and prices etc. I mentioned I was looking into it (excuse the pun) to a friend.. He recommended where he had his Laser Surgery, Visualase Bolton, and since he had really awful eyesight and now had perfect vision.... and he is a Priest!! I valued his opinion. I researched Visualase Surgeons, success rates and reviews and booked an appointment. From my first visit it was an excellent experience , very relaxed and had no obligations. More friendly and interested than Optimax, who were very sales orientated... Dr Doyle was open, honest and gave me all the facts. The ladies on the front desk kept me informed about the appointments by text and letters and sent information about all the surgeries. On the day of my surgery I was a little anxious, but I need not have worried as it was plain sailing. I was taken into the consulting room prepped with a fancy hat and shoe covers. I lay on the operating table, no head clamps or crazy eye grips, it was very comfortable, I was told every part or the procedure as it was happening, and was given how long (in seconds) each part of surgery was going to last. I was even given the chance to sit up and have a drink of water after the first eye was done. I lay down again and after another 45seconds the whole procedure was done! Amazing... I was taken into a recovery room, a glass of water later.. I was fine. I had to wear some gauze over my eyes and they felt blurry for a couple of hours afterwards but the change was remarkable.., Dr Doyle tested my eyesight 30min after the op... He asked me to read the top line of eye test..but .. I could even read the BOTTOM line! Perfect eye sight! I have been back three times now for my check ups, the staff all remember me and the tests have been a success too... It truly is life in HD... No even Blu-Ray!! I can't recommend it enough! It was the best money I have spent in years... In fact maybe ever! I even got money off for being reconmended by someone... and my Friend who recommended me got some vouchers too! If you are still undecided or worried and need more info or reassurance about your Visualase experience feel free to drop me an email, I'll be happy to help! Go for it!!!

I've been myopic since the age of 6 and managed with a combination of glasses and contact lenses for the next 58 years. Visualase was the group that convinced me as a medical professional that they looked beyond the cornea and provided a service that was friendly, professional and ultimately highly technically skilled. My vision is now as good as I hoped it would be. I can rip down the Snellen chart to the bottom when previously I couldn't read the letter at the top. A splendid and professional job from Visualase

Having laser eye surgery has made such a difference after wearing glasses and contact lenses for 20 years! It's now one month since I had my treatment and there have been no problems at all. The care and advice given by the staff and Dr Doyle both before and after the treatment are excellent. The treatment itself is so quick, PAINLESS and instant I could not believe the results! I would recommend Visualase to anyone considering laser eye surgery.
Amanda Fletcher
I had my eye treatment yesterday. It was very quick and completely pain free. I feel great today and have had an eye test and I have perfect vision. The staff were super and made me feel totally at ease. I would recommend this to anyone who is thinking of having this treatment. My-sister-in-law had her eyes done 4 years ago and her vision is still perfect. I went on her recommendation. I was amazed today how clear my vision was. The autumn colours seem much brighter and everything looked much clearer than I can ever remember.
Pat Mason
