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
AccuVision has changed my life. With their knowledge,their care, their service,their state of the art equipment, making me be a part of “their” team and proving to me “seeing IS believing” Excellant results excellant staff and consultants, without a doubt! I HIGHLY
recommend AccuVision as their advanced techniques allowed me to be able to see both distance and reading. “Mono vision” as it is called, done at the PERFECT balance, with state of the art percision, has given me COMPLETE freedom, even though I am 55 and all the other places could not correct both conditions, AccuVision has been able to do this.I will be eternally gratefull to them forever for releasing me from my glasses. When I left there yesterday after my 5 day post op one of the partners said to me “thank You for entrusting us with your eyes,” I replied “no Thank YOU for giving me to privledge of the journey.
Excellent after care, very knowledgeable and proffessional consultants, superb surgeon!
I have always been very short sighted (-6.75)and wore hard lens for some 28 years. About 3 years the tolerance went and I moved to soft lens. Since August 2003 I had repeaed eye infections and at Christmas 2003 got to the stage where I knew I would have to wear glasses constantly. I went to my local Nuffield Hospital and saw a consultant who treated the recurrent eye-infections and discussed laser with me. He recommended Moorfield Eye Hospital and I rang them. I found them to be very unfriendly and unhelpful. At the same time a friend passed me an article on Accuvision so I rang them and found them to be fantastically helpful. Vik did my initial consultation and did not promise life free of glasses and explained the risks and benfits. I booked to have it done and then my eye-infections got worst. I was using anti-biotics went for the operation and Nick Jacobs would not do it because of the residual infection. He booked it again for a month ahead. During that month I went back to my own consultant and was treated with antibiotic tablets, steriod eye drops antihistimin eye drops and I am glad to say it cleared up. I went back on 25 March 2004 and boy was I scared. The procedure however did not hurt – a little scary but no pain. When I got up from the table I could see Nick Jacobs face (the first time ever to see a face without glasses or lens). On the way back to the car I could read reg numbers. I kept waiting for the pain but it did not come. My eyes felt a little tired but that was all. I howeve slept most of the day. My 7.00pm I was looking around and could see perfectly. It kept improving. I was driving on Saturday 48 hours later. My eyes were corrected to monovision – one was totally corrected and the other less so that I would be able to read. I can see distance and read without glasses. I cannot recommend Accuvision enough for the professionalism, kindness and care. Whilst I could recommend other people to have it done I would have it done again and am just sorry I did not have it done before and if you are going to have it done go and see Accuvision. Thank you.
I did masses of research prior to taking the plunge with Accuvision and taking on the surgery (March 25th). I can honestly say that I can't fault Accuvision, they are both higly professional whilst at the same time friendly and relaxed. You feel in remarkably safe hands. Ofcourse there are nerves and doubts and you should only do this surgery once you have come to terms with your own situation. Suffice to say that my vision in both eyes is now 20-15 and bordering on being even better- crazy really.
If you're thinking about this surgery I strongly advise you to speak to Accuvision- consultancy is free so you have nowt to lose.
Thank you Accuvision! seems inadequate. I contacted Accuvision after personal recommendation & research, as a different clinic I had previously attended left me with doubts. The whole team were brilliant, from the first consultation with Vic, surgery (mar'04),aftercare,they are professional & caring and I had 100% confidence. My sight BL was -6.5/7 with steep corneas. It's now 20/20 or better. I keep smiling and am enjoying the freedom.
