I had my right eye treated on Friday 19th Oct at 3pm. Treatment was painless and by Saturday morning my vision was excellent. Eye drops and care will needed for 7 days. Normally at my age reading glasses would be needed if both eyes were treated but I received advice that because my reading was OK without glasses I could have just one eye treated which avoids the need for reading glasses. I am delighted with the whole process from initial consultation through to treatment.

I would highly recommend Visualase Eye clinic in Bolton for anyone considering having laser eye surgery .From first contacting the clinic in January 2011 I was treated with the upmost respect from all the staff from Elaine on reception to all the opticians before and after my treatment and especially Mr E Hynes who first checked my suitability and explained in full detail what would be involved in the surgery and the after care , on the day of surgery again all the staff were excellent in how welcoming and caring they all were in putting me at my ease .It has been the best decision I have made , after wearing glasses for over 40 years I can now get up in a morning without having to reach out first for my glasses before I could even go to the bathroom , wonderful!!!!

The staff and surgeon at Visualase, Bolton were excellent, very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The surgery itself was excellent, quick and painless, nothing to be worried about. The aftercare was brilliant. I would recommend laser eye surgery at Bolton without hesitation.

I was really scared about having this procedure as anything with eyes really scares me!! However the staff at the clinic are wonderful! I had the Tamazapan but looking back I dont really think that I needed it. The actual procedure was absolutely pain free and I could not feel a thing! I was comfortable and felt fine and relaxed. About half an hour afterwards It started to be a bit uncomfortable but nothing like I had expected and I cannot really call it pain! I continued with the drops every 2 hours for the first 24 hours and all was well. I had it done in the morning and by evening I was watching the television without glasses!! It was really like a miracle as I had never thought that my astigmatism could be corrected and escpecialy so quickly! I would recommend Bolton Visualase to anybody as my StepSon and Neice have had it done there and also my husband's cousin and they have all been fine.Thanks a lot Visualase xx

I had both my eyes done in March 2012 at Visualase in Bolton upon a recommendation from a friend who had also had it done there several years ago, and I have never looked back. I was made to feel at ease as soon as I walked in for my initial consultation to having them done. The receptionist Elaine was lovely throughout and The surgeon Dr Hynes answered all my questions I put to him.The clinic was very clean and I got taken into the room and shown the Laser equipment which would be used on my eyes. On the day of my treatment I was very nervous, but Elaine, the two nurses and Dr Hynes made me feel relaxed. The treatment didn't hurt, slight discomfort but I could pretty much see near enough straight away apart from a bit of blurring. I know have 20/20 vision.The aftercare was brilliant, and I have had several eye tests and just recently been discharged, my eyes are still great and I haven't had any problems with them at all.I would thorough recommend Visualase as you Will be well looked after and you will love the results
