Accuvision Laser Eye Clinic

The internet is a wonderful tool for research. You really don’t want to cut corners, especially when it comes to eye surgery, so forums and personal testimonials are invaluable in making the right decision. I’ve never taken the time to write one before, but my experience with Accuvision has changed all that.
It was personal testimonials like this, along with my brothers recommendation that prompted me to go for a consultation. The Solihull branch had a relaxed, no pressure atmosphere, and they had plenty of time for me. Tests were done and all options explained. I also asked a lot of questions about other companies offering similar treatments, and their answers satisfied me that I was making the right choice.
I booked my surgery 3 days later having had time to think about it, and 3 weeks later had it done. It’s now 54hrs later and the results are amazing, I had 20/20 vision after 24hrs, and it’s improving, giving clearer vision than with my lenses already. It may be a few hundred quid more than some other companies, but in my opinion it’s money well worth spending.

Very impressed with Accuvision. I looked into about 4 different companies but went with Accuvision as they didn’t push me into a decision. I felt in control in MY treatment. One company are still contacting me on almost a weekly basis trying to persuade me into spending my money with them. Accuvision are fantastic. From the moment you walk in they have your best interests/ vision at heart. I recommend them

I wish i had done this years ago. I did tons of research before having the treatment and in the end it was someone telling me ‘it’s become such a standard procedure now hasnt it?’ and i thought – you know what they’re right- and went for it. I’ve gone from a -7.5 to having better than 20/20 vision- unbelievable. I went for the accuvision clinics because a friend recommended them and i couldn’t have had a better experience. I can confirm the procedure doesn’t hurt and though the 24hrs afterwards are uncomfortable (feels a bit like when you’ve got an eyelash stuck in your eye- apart from more like there being 20 of them- and you arent allowed to rub them to stop it) your vision clears up over a week and after two it’s fantastic. There are risks but they aren’t high if you look after your eyes carefully for the first week. If you’re thinking about it i say do it!

My brother is an Optician who explained me all the procedures that were involved with the laser eye treatment and after searching around he recommended me Accuvision.

After the initial consultation at Solihull (on 17th July ’08) I was in hurry to have the surgery done – due to my travel plans. The next available date for the surgery was 28th July and that would have been too late for me. But the good people at Accuvision managed to book me in for the next day!

Next morning I had the surgery, both eyes probably took less than 10mins. All went very smooth and there was absolutely no pain what so ever. The whole team were very nice and friendly.

The day after the surgery I went for the post surgery appointment where I was delighted to find out my vision had got better than 20/20. That was exceptional result within 24 hours!

Thank you Accuvision for a wonderful job!

I have to say this site gave a massive amount of confidence and some expectations as to Accuvision. Thank you for everyone who posted. Let me say that they did not disappoint one bit.

From the initial consult with Vic, he made me relaxed, took his time, and answered any questions competently.

The actual procedure day itself was so professional, my mate who was in the waiting room said I was just 10 minutes and this included a chat with the surgeon, this is great for anyone who thinks you’ll be ‘under the knife’ for a long time. This is not to say it was rushed, from the nurse who puts the first drops in the eye to the bandage contact lens going on, it was clock work, I am sure they know how nervous you are and want to do the procedure efficiently as possible. You can talk to them at any time.

The experience, was bizarre and intense, but breathe easily, relax, and you will be fine. No pain whatsoever.

Four days later my eyes are just like I have my contacts in and getting slightly clearer each day. There are some ‘fogging’ at night but nothing serious and I am told it will pass with time. I am going for my second check up next week and I reckon I’m easily 20/20 if not slightly better.

The after appointment would have been with Vic as well but he’s away on holiday but Joan was equally friendly and confident.

I had a consultation at another clinic in Guildford, all I can say is that I felt a little bit on a conveyor belt and they upsold me to the hilt, walking away with a quote for £4200. My experience with Accuvision was very different.

My fee was £850 an eye, but a £10 charge for amex and £50 for admin charge of the 10 months 0% interest, hence I have put £1760. Still a very good price for Wavefront Lasik, with an excellent clinic.

I’m not on comission but I am definately recommending this to you and to all my friends with glasses or contacts!
