Is it advised to perform laser surgery on one eye if the other has amblyopia? I am 70 years old.  More...

Fantastic results! Appointments always fitted around me, staff always polite, helpful and courteous. Having Ultralase treatment has made an excellent change to my life. Having worn glasses and/or lenses for 26 years, it is a great feeling to be able to see when I get up in the morning and to be able to see 100% when swimming. 100% recommendation.  More...

They deserve even more stars than I can give. Thouroghy professional throughout, no question to silly, explain everything thouroughly and even though they were paying for my op (lucky me won their monthly prizedraw and got zapped for free)had no hesitation in recommending the prceedure most suitable for me even though it was most costly for them. Aftercare has been top notch. I had a bit of inflamation but they have seen me 5 or 6 times in 3 weeks to make sure it is all sorted out as it should be.  More...

I had contemplated laser surgery for some years but only made the decision to go ahed when my prescription changed, requiring me to wear reading glasses. Since having the treatmentmy eyesight has improved beyond 20/20 and the need for reading glasses has been delayed for a while at least. From day one I have been made aware of all the implications and the form the treatment would take. All my doubts were answered and the members of clinical staff were reassuring throughout. In short, I would have no hesitation in recommending Ultralase and I am in fact trying to persuade my son to take the plunge.  More...

After spending time researching laser eye treatment, I finally went ahead and had the procedure. My eyes were -1.5 with astigmatisim. I decided on the UltraLASEKplus option at the Hammersmith clinic, with the surgery being carried out by Vinod Gupta. Like many people I was nervous on the day, but there was no need to worry. The operation was painless, the only uncomfortable part is a little bit of pressure on the eyes, but this only lasts for a few seconds. It was all over in 15 minutes with each step of the operation being talked through so there are no surprises. To my surprise I had no pain over the next few days, just a little discomfort from wearing the contact lenses. Once the ...  More...

Although I was naturally worried about having my eyes treated, the professional service I received from the Ultralase team at Chelmsford really put me at ease. Everyone was brilliant and explained all the aspects of the treatment and aftercare really well. The treatment itself was over so quickly and I can honestly say I felt no pain. On leaving the clinic I was amazed to be able to look around and read all the signs!! Dr Vinod Gupta was brilliant - thank you I wish I had come sooner! x  More...

Just had my 3 month appointment, managed the bottom line which is one line below 20/20. my prescription at present is +0.50, hopefully that will settle further from it's initial ( before Laser ) -4.25 left -1.25 right. Now that should give you a clue that i had my right eye lasered in 1991 using the PRK technique> This time i had UltraLASEK plus, it's so similar, they almost got it right in 91, but now the epithelium is saved instead of being thrown away , that way you dont get the hazing and other problems now..... Only slight problems i have are slight dry eye which i use gel type drops,and starbursts at night, now this one surprises me as the wavefront treatment is supposed to ...  More...

I had UltraLasik (L) and UltraLasikPlus (R) two days ago in the Ultralase Guildford Clinic. My prescription was -5.5/-5.0 Yes I was sceptical, Yes I was petrified. Yes - I was extremely squeamish. Yes - I still had it done because I believed the benefits far outweighed the risks. My thoughts two days later.... Wow. Amazing. Fantastic. Painless. Brilliant. Professional. Excellent. My eyesight is still settling down (and I expect this to continue for quite a while) but I already have 20-20 vision less than 24 hours later in my left eye and I am driving standard in my right. My particular thanks and praise goes to my eye surgeon Wayne Crewe-Brown who showed the utmost pro ...  More...

Amazing result! Ultralase were great. I wish I'd had it done years ago. Can't wait to go snorkelling on holiday - FANTASTIC! And the novelty of being able to see the alarm clock never wears off.  More...

I'm not very happy with the fact that Ultralase have banned me from their forum and deleted my post in which I asked why. I assume this is because I openly praise Accuvision and I have sent some private messages suggesting that people give them a try. However, the forum in no way forbids the discussion of other providers and even has a specific area to discuss them. There are very few rules to break. I won't give a rating as it would give an unfair picture of their treatment. Let's see if this post gets deleted too. Now that would be interesting.  More...

I was a little nervous as I am prone to fainting. I should not have worried - the staff were excellent. Both eyes are now better than 20/20 vision. Don't hesitate to have it done, it's worth every penny.  More...

Wow! How amazing is this! The treatment was painless, it was just slightly uncomfortable with the pressure but the nurses let me know exactly how long it would go on for and exactly what was happening so I felt in control! The next day I had 20/20 vision! I have recommended this to everyone I know. I can't explain how much this has changed my life!  More...

All the staff were helpful and caring. The service couldn't be better.  More...

My parents gave me life BUT you gave me sight. Thank you so much - it's amazing!!  More...

Initially I was very nervous when coming for the treatment but the friendly staff made me feel at ease very quickly. Overall I have been very impressed by the whole process and I can see perfectly one week later. I would recommend it to anyone.  More...

Service 1st class. Staff very helpful and friendly. Very pleased with treatment - operation painless and the results have changed my life.  More...

Unbelievable results, and totally painless. I would definitely recommend treatment to anyone.  More...

Massive gain for no real pain - what more could you want? I've already recommended friends, family and workmates to use Ultralase and ditch their glasses and contact lenses forever.  More...

I was unsure whether to come for a consultation but all the information on the Web suggested Ultralase to be very professional and sucessful. I was very impressed with the attention to detail during my assessment and 'pre-op' appointments. My laser surgery went very smoothly with minimal discomfort. The whole thing was over in 20 mins and five weeks on I am extremely happy with the outcome - I have been recommending it to everyone!  More...

Would anyone care to say how many operations a surgeon must perform before being instilling confidence in you to request them to perform the operation.  More...

I had my final consultation at St Albans Ultralase clinic on 22/11/05 following treatment on 29/5/04. I had lasek, as I have thin corneas. I now have "better than perfect vision" which is brilliant and have not suffered the problems that I was told I would get, with being 45 when I had the treatment, of needing reading glasses - I can read fine, unless eyes are very tired or very tiny print. I have not had much of the dry eye which was also indicated as highly probable. I do have a little bit of night halo blurring, but it is not too much of a problem, not as bad as with glasses unless very bright lights. I think I was asked to attend a further appointment after the year, as one optome ...  More...

I am really scare! I went for a consultation today at Ultralase Clinic in St Albans. I have a lazy eye, but the surgeon says it is OK to have the surgery. When I ask about the risk, he told me that there have been cases reported of not getting the results expected or getting worse than before surgery. As soon as I came back home, went to Ultralase's website and there are lots of people in the forum that have serious problems with their eyes after treatment. I do not know if I should go for the treatment. Any good piece of advise?  More...

I was treated 2 weeks ago by Ultralase in Leeds for what I considered to be quite a mild myopic prescription. However, the outstanding result has made me realise that I was totally reliant on my glasses without realising it. Driving, TV and distance reading are now effortless - better even than with glasses. I would urge anyone, however little they use their glasses or lenses, to visit Ultralase - the change will be overwhelming.  More...

I HAVE RECENTLY VISITED THE CHESTER CLINIC FOR A CONSULTATION. FOUND EVERYONE THERE REALLY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. I WAS ABLE TO HAVE ANY OF THE PROCEDURES BUT HAVE CHOSEN THE ULTRALASIK PLUS REALLY BECAUSE OF THE HIGH SUCCESS RATE. I WAS NOT PUSHED INTO ANY DECISIONS AT ANY TIME AND WAS NOT ENCOURAGED TO GO FOR THE MOST EXPENSIVE TREATMENT. I HAVE JUST BOOKED IN FOR THE TREATMENT, SO I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED WITH THE RESULTS, WHICH WILL HOPEFULLY BE GREAT.  More...

The staff at Ultralase were excellent.Everything was explained, both risks and benefits. On the day of surgery they checked that I understood the proceedure and explained the short and long term aftercare. Everything happened exactly as the surgeon and staff said. I now have 20/20 vision and it is clearer than glasses or contact lenses. I would recommend people to have the treatment if they are suitable.  More...

I am very pleased with the service I received, very friendly and efficient. The treatment I received was Lasik Plus, and this has enabled me to be free of glasses for most of the time - I only have to wear a low prescription for reading.  More...

I wish I had had the treatment done before. I can't believe how quick and painless it was, and how fantastic it is to be able to see perfectly without having to wear glasses. I'm really looking forward to being able to go into places without my glasses steaming up, and walking in the rain. I have had compliments on how big my eyes look and how different I now look without my glasses. I didn't mind having to wear them before, but now I'm glad I don't.  More...

Excellent from beginning to end. I wish that I had had it done years ago. Thanks.  More...

Ultralasik Plus - August 2005 The Ultralase experience has opened up a whole new world for me. I am able to notice things when swimming and doing sport. I'm even able to watch myself in the hairdresser's mirror now! The freedom after wearing glasses for 23 years is fantastic. Thank you!  More...

Excellent service from beginning to end! I was very nervous about the whole thing, but my patient advisor and surgeon explained everything fully and put my mind at rest! The procedure was pain free and the results are excellent. I couldn't be more pleased - it was definately worth it!!  More...

Consulation very thorough. Results outstanding, went from literally blind without glasses (I would have been classed as legally blind if it were not for my glasses) to 20/20 vision! Excellent customer service, I feel 3K is a small price to pay for something as priceless as eyesight! I would rather pay 3K and be happy than 1K and have problems from the outset. I feel I got my moneys worth. I attended the Guildford clinic.  More...

The initial consultations at Ultralase are very thorough. I was quite nervous on the day of treatment, but the staff were very supportive and reassuring. The results that were achieved have been excellent and the discomfort has been minimal. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ultralase to my friends and family.  More...

Hi everyone, I am considering having surgery done at Ultralase Newcastle. Would love to hear from anyone who has had experience of this particular clinic: consultation, procedure itself and outcome. My prescription is -5.00 both eyes. Also, I'd like to know how long you had to wait between consult and op as I've got to travel from Northern Ireland and stay with a friend so I'd like to know how long I'll be sleeping on her floor for!  More...

From the first day of contact with Ultralase, the people and information has been first class. The procedure was pain-free and so fst, helped by every stage being explained. Aftercare was excellent, and the results 100% - no more glasses. I feel 10 years younger! Thank you everyone.  More...

The whole experience was fantastic. From the consultation to the day of treatment, I felt looked after and important. The results are great. My eyes do feel dry but it's getting better with time. Thanks Ultralase! My confidence has really improved since my glasses came off for good.  More...

Best thing I have done. Great service and excellent results. Wish I'd had it done years ago.  More...

Very good service from the outset. The process was explained in detail and the procedure went better than expected with excellent results - 20/20 vision from a high prescription which is better than I expected.  More...

I was so apprehensive and quite scared, but when I got there, that changed. The staff were fantastic, explaining everything, answering every question and they were very caring. I am so thrilled about the results of my treatment and have praised and recommended Ultralase and the treatment to many people - The best money I have ever spent - Thank you so very much, it has changed my life.  More...

Very fast and efficient service. Could see perfectly the day after treatment. Sports are so much better without contact lenses!  More...

Attended Cardiff recieved an awful sales pitch that 'oh how great you and your wife are eligible for the most expensive treatment'. They may be very good at what they do but they are twice the price of elsewhere. The cheaper options were never discussed.  More...

I had my eyes lasered by Ultralase over 5 years ago and I am still amazed by the results. I've gone from being as blind as a bat to seeing better than 20/20. The staff at Ultralase were excellent and answered all my questions honestly and thoroughly. I've been so impressed that I've recommended Ultralase to many of my friends and relatives. One of my mates has recently had the new wavefront treatment and his eyesight is amazing.  More...

I had Lasek surgery at the Hammersmith clinic in February 2005 and I have to say it is one of the best things that I have ever done! My corneas were on the boundaries of being too thin for Lasik so I was recommended Lasek which I was very nervous about. Dr Vinod Gupta performed my operation and I trusted his professionalism completely. I felt in very safe hands and I knew his reputation was excellent. The operation was not painful, all I felt was a bit of pressure on each eye. It was over in minutes and the staff were brilliant throughout. Apart from my eyes streaming for a while I did not really have any significant pain at all. I had the lenses taken out a week later and when I went back ...  More...

I love sports and outdoor activities and have been struggling for years with glasses and contact lenses (dry eyes). I was really nervous about the treatment but everything was explained thoroughly and the treatment was very quick. I am delighted with the results - it has honestly changed my life.  More...

I had Lasik surgery in April 2004, eyesight now 20/20, the best money I've ever spent as the results are so good. Painless but uncomfortable treatment and certainly an un-natural feeling having your eyes poked around with. The Ultralase clinic in St Albans was professional and thorough. Although I did feel that every stage was done at top speed, everything took half as long as they said it would. Although I was asked if I had any questions throughout I still got the overall feeling that it was a bit like wham-bam-thankyou-goodbye. No other complaints at all.  More...

Had UltraLasekPlus on wed 21st sept 2005 at Chester. had both eye's treated,vision left eye is exellent a little blurd in the right eye, main irritation is the bandage contact lenses, cant wait to get the right one out , hopefully on monday. I had PRK laser treatment in dec 1991 right eye went from -4.25 to -1.25 but had night vision problems so it's taken me a long time to have both eyes treated, why Ultralase, the wavefront laser was the biggest factor for me, will update this article when the vision has settled  More...

I had LASEK at the Ultralase Chelmsford clinic yesterday, and I can see! It's still a little hazy and I'm not expecting it to be perfect straight away, but even what I have now is nothing short of a miracle. My care at Chelmsford was so professional and caring I'm lost for words. They explained everything at every stage of the process, and I really didn't feel like I was going through it alone. Anyway, have to end here, mustn't use the computer too much on the first day!  More...

I use to wear glasses all the time but now they are a thing of the past. I would (and already have) recommend Ultralase to my friends. It has only been a week but I would say that it has changed my life. I can't wait to go swimming! All the staff were so helpful and reassuring at every step of the way. I had surgery on Saturday afternoon and on Sunday morning I had better vision than when I wore glasses! Absolutely fantastic!  More...

Although I was really nervous, everyone made me feel comforatable whilst at the clinic. To not wear glasses now is amazing, and a week after the treatment I’m still amazed at the results.  More...

Excellent care before, during and after. I was so nervous before the procedure that one of the staff came in with me to hold my hand – thank you to her! But all my fears were completely unfounded. Now I can’t believe the difference – objects in the distance have sharp edges and I no longer have to squint to read Ceefax! I was always too vain to wear my glasses and it was starting to get dangerous when crossing roads! Now my vision is perfect again, I never realised what I was missing until I got it back. Thank you so much.  More...

The excellent service was apparent from the start when I called the Contact Centre. The staff were friendly and helpful, something which continued throughout the course of my consultations, treatment and aftercare. As far as the treatment is concerned, there was a little pain and discomfort for the first few days, however all was well by the third day. I can honestly say that having Ultralasik treatment was the best thing I have done. I now enjoy perfect vision having previously seen the world through blurry vision for over 10 years.  More...

Incredible results - it feels amazing to be free of glasses, especially when swimming/surfing - I can now see where I am going! The Ultralase team are totally professional and the surgery itself is totally painless. Three months after surgery I'm totally delighted, and would recommend Ultralase unreservedly.  More...

This was life changing! I'm really pleased with the results! Thanks to all in Cardiff! :)  More...

I was very nervous beforehand but the staff were so good at calming me down it was easy-peasy!! Vision, especially at night, is almost perfect. Hubby getting zapped next month after I was the guinea pig for him.  More...

You have provided a level of customer service second to none! Every single staff member gives 100% - AMAZING! If I was 100% confident about having treatment before hand, I am now 200% happy with the results six months down the line. Not stopped recommending you! Outstanding - thank you all.  More...

I thought about having this treatment ten years ago and did nothing about it. Don't put it off get it done now. Its the best thing I have done since buying my first motorbike. A big thank-you to everyone at Ultralase!  More...

Wow! Wow! Wow! I can see. The best thing I have ever done. Many thanks to the team at Chester - brilliant staff and support. I recommend this to everyone - in fact I have!  More...

The consultation and treatment were of a very high standard. I found all the staff very friendly as well as professional. I have not experienced any problems and would recommend the treatment - it is so much better than wearing contact lenses or glasses.  More...

I can't believe I didn't do this years ago! I found everyone very friendly and helpful and very reassuring, especially on the day of treatment when I was very nervous. The results are amazing and I am already recommending Ultralase to everyone I know who wears glasses!  More...

It was very quick and I could see the change straight away. I have been wearing glasses for many years. Would recommend Ultralase to anyone. It is great to wake up and see, and it makes scuba diving easier.  More...

Don't know what I was worried about! Everyone was so kind and really looked after me every step of the way. I would recommend Ultralase to anyone.  More...

Wow, what a life changing difference. I truly recommend it. Great customer service throughout. No problems. I has doubts to begin with, but after the consultation and surgery, I'm completely satisfied 100%. Trust me it's brill.  More...

The treatment was much easier and quicker than expected! The next day I could see fine and my vision is still improving. Thanks!  More...

They've heard it all before but... It's simply the best thing I've done. Many, many thanks all!!!  More...

Must start by saying EXCELLENT. The service I got from start to finish was nothing short of excellent. I have recommended them to members of my family which must speak volumes. The whole procedure was painless. I was even less nervous than I thought (coming from a man who can't bear to put in contact lenses) I can only put this down to the professionalism of the staff......5 STARS and 2 THUMBS UP!...  More...

Wonderful staff, wonderful service and wonderful treatment. Very quick and no pain at all - wish I had done it years ago! Would not hesitate in recommending Ultralase and treatment to anyone.  More...

I had surgery at the Chester clinic on the 26th August. Overall I was disappointed with the level of service that I received. The actual procedure went ok and I am left with very good vision in my right eye but not so good vision in my left eye. I feel that this may be down to the fact that the surgeon changed my treatment at the last minute in my left eye from UltraLasik Plus to Ultralasik. I was also told that I could not have an enhancement if need be as my corneas were too thin, completely contradicting the information I was given at the consultation. This was inmportant to me incase things were not quite perfect first time.I am also having problems focusing on close work such as the com ...  More...

I was turned down for treatment at another centre, but when going to Ultralase there was no problem at all. Everyone has been brilliant! My vision is A1.  More...

A TRULY EXCELLENT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE. AMAZING DIFFERENCE WITHIN DAYS OF THE PROCEDURE. THE TREATMENT WAS NOT AS UNCOMFORTABLE AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE - NO PAIN AT ALL. I HAVE ALREADY RECOMMENDED ULTRALASE TO SEVERAL PEOPLE - FIRST CLASS!  More...

I required a second treatment on one eye and now the outcome is fantastic....  More...

I was nervous about the treatment but the nurses pit me at ease. The procedure lasted about 10 mins and was pain free nothing to worry about at all. My vision is now perfect and it feels brilliant. The aftercare is good and you are well looked after. I would recommend it definately.  More...

I made an initial enquiry via the internet. Details cots etc. were sent to me prior to my 1st consutancy. Everything ran very smoothly and the operation itself and the 1st week afterwards was exactly as explained to me. Yes there was some pain after the operation, however no more discomfort than having a lash in your eye. Results are fantastic. Sight settled down after the 6th day. I would recommend this treatment to anyone. Having no glasses makes you feel free.  More...

Very refreshing and reassuring service by all staff. Treated all my silly little questions with patient informative answers! My life is so much easier now without lenses and glasses. People that don't know I've had the laser treatment say I look much happier and ask why?!  More...

I only wish i had had my eyes done years ago. I am so happy i can see everything again without my glasses. I had worn glasses for 31 years. Now i can drive wearing sun glasses. I would really recommend every-one to have this treatment. I feel as if i have got my life back. The staff are great and i would like to tnak them all for all the friendly and lovely aftercare they have given me. They are just wonderfull.  More...

I was terrified but everyone was really reassuring. The treatment was very quick and painless. The 1st 5 days were a bit uncomfortable then everythnig became clear. The results are fantastic, the best thing I ever did. The aftercare has been great. I would highly recommend it to anyone.  More...

Wow! From my first consultation the staff were friendly, told you all you needed to know - the good and the scary! I had recommended Ultralase already (before the treatment) but now... well I certainly won't be shy about telling everyone!! The results after nearly 20 years of glasses to be able to see as soon as I wake in the morning speak for themselves - AMAZING. Thanks to Ultralase - the best decision I ever made!  More...

The treatment I have recieved from the staff at Ultralase was unvelievable! It was great being treated as a person and not just another patient. I would recommend Ultralase to everyone - don't think I would have been at ease having the treatment done anywhere else.  More...

The actual operation was not uncomfortable at all and the standard of care both before and during it was excellent. I had complete faith in the surgeon and his team as they were so thorough and professional. I was also impressed with the standard of equipment used - state of the art. I have been shortsighted since I was 5 - and now at 50 I am free of it at last!  More...

I am very pleased at what Ultralase has done. Having my eyes done has been the best thing. I would happily recommend Ultralase to my friends and family. All the staff are very friendly.  More...

FROM START TO FINISH, THE SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT. I HAD MY TREATMENT AT 7PM ON A THURSDAY EVENING. THE FOLLOWING MORNING AT 8.30AM I DROVE MY SON TO HIS NURSERY, WITHOUT GLASSES. MY ONLY REGRET IS THAT I DIDN'T HAVE IT DONE 5 YEARS AGO!  More...

At the first consultation I was told that I needed LASEK treatment which would initially be more painful but with less chance of problems. When I decided to go ahead I was a bit worried in case any problems occured however all went well on the treatment day. No pain at all during treatment - when anasthetic wore of I didn't know where to put myself for a couple of hours. I slept for the rest of the day - next day FANTASTIC - no pain and brilliant vision.  More...

For 44 years I have been as blind as a bat, without glasses. The Ultralase clinic has literally given me my sight back at the age of 54. I was terrified - the biggest coward around - friends couldn't believe that I put myself forward to have this treatment. All staff were so helpful - all of my questions were answered honestly. I had a very high prescription buy Mr Cherry (the Surgeon) believed that he could help me - and he did. Treatment day found me a nervous wreck, but there was no need at all. I felt no pain whatsoever and could see the clock on the wall as soon as I sat up. Brilliant!! I do need reasing glasses - but that's OK. Now I can wear lovely fashionable sun glass ...  More...

Well, I finally took the plunge and had the op. I had the assessment some time ago but then chickened out but this time I went through with it. I had the initial assessment at Tottenham Court Road with a very pleasant lady who answered all my questions in detail. Slightly concerned that the receptionists were wearing glasses, and hadn't had the op themselves, but I didnt let it put me off! The surgery itself was performed at Hammersmith. Day after the bombings so understandably things were not running as smoothly as they might, but after a short delay i was in with the surgeon, a quick check, then away we went. If i have any adverse comment to make, it was that the surgeon himself was ...  More...

At all times during the consultation and in the aftercare at Ultralase the standard of treatment has been consistently tremendous. Everyone treated questions as thought I was the first to ask - despite the fact that it was probably things that were asked every day. At every stage the standards were of the highest level. The results are brilliant and it makes such a difference to life - I do not have enough good things to say about it!  More...

From the initial contact via the website to the conusltation to the treatment and aftercare everything has been excellent. Whilst possibly more expensive than other clinics, the professionalism and follow up care is definitely worth it. Being confident in the procedure and the staff carrying out the procedures made a good relaxing procedure stress free. Results amazing.  More...

ALL ASPECTS OF THE SERVICE RECEIVED HAVE BEEN FIRST CLASS - I COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR ANYTHING BETTER. THE PROCEDURE ITSELF WAS FINE - SLIGHTLY UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT CERTAINLY NOT PAINFUL. AFTERWARDS I SUFFERED A LITTLE DRYNESS BUT NOTHING PAINFUL. THE RESULTS ARE TREMENDOUS - VERY VERY SATISFIED WITH MY INVESTMENT.  More...
