I spent a lot of time debating whether or not to have this treatment before eventually going ahead in October 2010. I obtained consultations from several clinics including a couple of High Street chains before deciding on the MDA clinic. This clinic was recommended to me by a work colleague who had been treated here and was very pleased with the results. My previous prescription was -1 in one eye and -4.5 in the other. I now have better than 20:20 vision. One year on from the surgery I am delighted with the results. I have not experienced any side effects. I was very happy with the service and care which I received and I would happily recommend them.  More...

I would highly recommend Dr Khatib. Don't be fooled by cheap advertising prices elsewhere! Dr. Khatib came highly recommended by a number of people who had already undergone vision correction. I had the no obligation consultation with Dr. Khatib and both my Mum and Nan came with me. Dr. Khatib took time to explain not only the procedure, but also what 'short sightedness' was as well as discussing any possible side effects (even though they are very rare). He gave me plenty of opportunity to ask questions, and also for my mum and nan to ask questions. He made me feel at ease throughout and at no point put me under pressure to proceed with the procedure. He even stated that it was a b ...  More...

I recommend this clinic to anyone near Cardiff who is deciding to get their vision corrected. Dr Khatib has experience for more than 30 years with eye surgery in the UK, originally the surgeon Dr Khatib is from India. The staff at the clinic helped me choose the best option for my eyes, gave me a price and stated clearly the medication required on my free consultation. The day I had the surgery, I was told about the aftercare and about any pain I may experience for a short time after the operation. The operation was completed successfully and during the procedure there is no pain or blackout for LASEK. I now have perfect vision thanks to the staff. ''Sight is one of our most precious things ...  More...

The operation changed my life. It is great not to wear my glasses. Thanks to everyone.  More...

MDA clinic was the second laser treatement centre that I attended (I previously went to a High Street Optician). I felt that I was being treated more as an individual, there was no pressure to make a decision on the consultation day, whereas the High Street Optician took £300 immediately they knew I was suitable for eye surgery (this was non-refundable). The eye surgery itself was just slightly uncomfortable, although I was very nervous. I had no pain whatsoever and hardly any discomfort following the surgery. Dr. Khatib, his wife and staff were very friendly and welcoming and I was given his mobile telephone number to call him at any time during the night or day. Although this was not the ...  More...

Apart from location, the main reason I chose MDA Clinic was that a family member underwent the same surgery there and had a very positive experience. Another important reason was that MDA Clinic has only one surgeon, Mr Khatib, who sees his patients all the way through the process from initial consultation to after-care. It meant I knew exactly who I was getting from the beginning, which made me feel more secure. As for the actual operation, everything went exactly as I was told by Mr Khatib beforehand. I was particularly impressed by the sense of professional calm at every stage and among all the staff, which made me feel I was in very capable hands throughout. The treatment itself was ...  More...
