1. Review of AccuVision Laser Eye Clinic
Established in 2001, AccuVision is a popular destination for people seeking quality, affordable laser eye surgery. This clinic currently operates in five cities nationwide: London, Birmingham, Leeds, Bristol and Newcastle, and has performed over 40,000 treatments and counting.
What did independent inspectors find? According to the CQC’s latest report, there were no complaints between August 2016 and September 2017 from 1,011 refractive eye procedures carried out at AccuVision.
Is there anything else I should know? Most of the eye surgeons on our site enjoy five-star ratings, and the same is true for AccuVision. But it’s worth noting we only have 10 reviews for Dr Prashant Jindal.
Patients always want to find an ophthalmologist they feel comfortable with. That’s why it’s always a good idea to do your own research by trying to meet with your surgeon at an initial consultation, and many clinics offer these for free.

2. AccuVision Treatments
As well as common laser vision correction treatments – such as LASEK and LASIK with ultra-accurate Wavefront diagnostics – AccuVision also offers lens replacement surgery, including the UK’s most common surgical procedure: cataract surgery.
- LASIK eye surgery
- Trans-Epithelial Surface Treatment
- Lens replacement surgery
- ICL surgery (implantable contact lenses)
- Cataract surgery
- Amblyopia (lazy eye treatment)
So is it safe? AccuVision promises highly sophisticated, automated devices, with world-class Wavefront technology and the Alcon WaveLight EX500 Excimer laser. According to the clinic’s own study of 500 patients, everyone achieved at least driving standard vision following surgery (including repeat surgery).
3. AccuVision Laser Eye Clinic Prices
AccuVision’s prices are reasonable rates in laser eye surgery. On average, 800 patients told Lasik Eyes they paid £1,200 (per eye) for laser eye surgery, and £3,615 (per eye) for lens replacement surgery (including cataract surgery) – few clinics have lower starting prices.
AccuVision doesn’t publish a fixed price list, but here are the costs you can expect for the most popular eye surgeries:
- Consultation Price: Free for initial consultation
- LASIK Price: Average cost £2,400 for both eyes
- Trans-Epi Price: Average cost £2,400 for both eyes
- C3R Treatment Price: Average cost £2,000 per eye
Here’s how these prices compare to the eye surgery quotes offered by other clinics:

Eye surgery isn’t an insignificant cost for most people. That’s why AccuVision offers a 10 month finance option, which lets you spread the costs of surgery after the initial deposit into smaller monthly fees. You will need to pass a credit check with Hitachi Capital to gain approval for this payment plan.
That said, most clinics provide finance plans for much longer – up to three years, and also team up with health insurers who may cover at least some of the costs of the surgery (which AccuVision doesn’t).

Our Testimonials
I had my eye sight corrected at Accuvision five weeks ago. I live at Newcastle but because my prescription was so bad at +7.5 no one would treat me. I had a free consultation at the London clinic and was so impressed I had the treatment two days later. The procedure took only minutes and there was no pain. My sight was improved instantly and got better each day. I had worn glasses or contact lenses for nearly fifty years and have now thrown them away. My vision was checked arter a month and is now 20/20
My advice is to go for it…
Amazing, I can see! 3 months ago I had a glasses prescription of + 6 and + 5.5 and couldn’t be without my glasses for more than a few minutes without getting a headache. Now thanks to Accuvision's care, attention to detail and wave front technology I have 20/20 vision in both eyes. The procedure was a bit scary and to be honest a bit painful. I had an interesting train ride to Croydon being guided like a blind person, and eventually I began to feel a little better. The worst of the pain only really lasted about 3 hours and suddenly I could open my eyes better and even watch the TV without my glasses, something I had never been able to do. The next morning I already had roughly 20/20 vision – wonderful after wearing glasses or contact lenses since I was 2 years old. I still can’t bear to chuck out my old faithful scratched and well worn glasses, not because I think my eyes will get worse again but just because it is great to be reminded every now and again what Accuvision did for me. It was worth paying more money than other clinics, for a start I wasn’t a borderline case with them and they really do seem to care what happens to you afterwards. I seemed to heal quicker and have less pain than other people that have used the usual cheaper places even though my prescription was much higher than them. Well worth the money, I would recommend Accuvision to any one with a higher prescription.
I have been blind in one eye since I was a child and have worn a contact lens for the last 13 years. Obviously, this worried me incase anything went wrong with my one 'good' eye. Accuvision were thoroughly professional and reassuring when dealing with me. They took a good two hours on my initial consultation and I felt total confidence in them. My vision is now apparently better than 20:20 in my working eye and I feel like a miracle has been performed! I would certainly recommend this clinic to anyone else requiring treatment.
I have just had laser surgery done by the Accuvision team this week. From start to finish I have recieved only proffessional treatment from all members of staff there. Please rely on my words when I say this company is very good at what they do!!! When I was reading a lot of positive reviews about this company I decided to take a chance and go for it and I am so glad that I did!!! Take it from me I have not worn my glasses since the procedure and I keep thinking I have left them somewhere and I am missing something..I was treated for short-sightedness so now everything I do in my daily life such as driving or watching the TV is very much clearer. When I left the clinic I could not help but notice the smallest details around me, from the tiles on the roof tops to the leaves on the trees..My advice to anyone is just go for it!!! My experience has been so good that normally I would not even write a review on anything however I HAVE to make a exception this time due to the profound impact that this has had on my life. This is the new way forward that realy works!!!! The company will give you all the information before the day and are always happy to answear any questions!!! The procedure was over so quickly that I cant believe I did not do this sooner!! A very worth wild experience I would 100% recommend ANYONE to do this!!!
The team at Accuvision are amazing. They talk you through everything until you are happy with even the most trivial of questions you may have (in my case I was not laughed at for asking how long before my surgery I was allowed to have my eyelashes tinted – how vain! – its about 4 days in case you're interested!). They take the utmost care of you on the day, and my surgeon Chad Rostron is awesome. Their 24 hour number is at your disposal anytime you need reassurance.
All in all, they were amazing, and I can now see the leaves on the trees, and even into people's houses!! It is a life changing experience, and I am glad I did it with the team at Accuvision.
