I've considered eye laser surgery for 10-15 years, my vision being -7.75 in both eyes. I have always had reservations regarding eye laser surgery and was confused by the amount of laser clinics stating that they were better than the next, and just put the whole thing to the back of my mind.

This was until a recent visit to my optician Brian Tompkins of Tompkins Knight & Son in Northampton, who recommended AVC. As the information was given to me by someone whom I know and trust, I thought it must be worth following it up.

At my consultation visit with the AVC team in Harley Street, it was found that I would be suitable for the most recent treatment, 'wavefront' technology. During my visit I was impressed to actually meet the surgeon, Mr Pillai who further put my mind at ease. The professional, friendly and yet personal attitude towards the whole surgery process left me feeling 100% confident that I could trust AVC with my eyes.

On the day, the surgery only took minutes to complete each eye. There were no surprises as everything had already been discussed. I was amazed to notice a massive improvement almost instantly.

I have been back to AVC for my 1 day & 1 week check up, everything is great 20/20 vision and all that! I am now looking forward to having my 6 week check up with my optician and being able to read the letters on his chart!!!!

Would I recommend AVC, of course I would. Firstly you can be referred by your own optician (and if you can't, tell them about it!), secondly the professional advice was made very clear and consise, all questions regarding eye laser surgery were answered. The pre / post surgery and on-going after care service was second to none. If you are thinking of eye laser surgery, consider giving Advanced VisionCare a call.
