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
From the moment I made the initial contact I have been treated with the utmost professionalism. We received a brochure and DVD within two days. The DVD is great showing exactly what to expect. Through this we phoned and made an appointment. We were a little concerned at having to go to London but need not have worried as it is so easy to get to the clinic from Victoria station.
I had previously had a consultation with Optical Express but the experience was not good, although the examination itself was fine, and I had no confidence in going ahead. The following day my wife found Accuvision on the net and through that we made contact. which I am so glad of.
I am 69 years old and wasn’t sure that I would be able to have the surgery. However, after my consultation I was able to go ahead. We had booked the surgery for the same day so I didn’t have to wait.
I had my surgery on the 28th February 2008 at the London Clinic. Everything has been fantastic. The caring attitude of all involved, through to the surgery itself and the after-care which is brilliant, I cannot praise everyone enough.
I cannot tell you how great it is to be able to see again without glasses. I can drive, shop, go to theatres and restaurants without having to think `where are my glasses`. Many times I have missed a performance at the theatre or have had to ask my wife to read a menu to me in the restaurant because I had left my glasses at home.
I would just like to say to those of you who are thinking of having this surgery that I believe you could not get a better service anywhere and at such a reasonable price.
I cannot thank you enough and have already recommended you to my friends.
I’ve had the operation 3 years ago and my vision is perfect, 20/20. I’ve been examined by various eye specialists since then and all of them always state how good the operation has been. I would like to thank Accuvision and definitely recommend it to anybody who is thinking of laser eye treatment. Accuvision is the best…
I’d worn glasses since the age of about five for things like reading, TV, school work and then later driving. As soon as possible I moved on to contact lenses and was pretty happy with them at first. However, after a while the whole routine of having to clean them and take them out etc. etc. started to get on my nerves so I looked in having laser surgery.
I did a bit of research into the various companies around but was very impressed by the service and value for money I was offered at Accuvision.
One of the main reasons I was keen to get my eyes lasered is for my rugby – all too frequently I would lose a contact lens on the pitch and be half blind for the rest of the game.
I decided to go with Accuvision and after a being taken through the procedure step by step I agreed to have the surgery done.
On the day I was pretty nervous but was re-assured by the calm atmosphere at the clinic. After a few more routine checks I found myself underneath the laser machine, waiting to experience all the horror stories I’d heard – the smell of burning cornea, the pain, the discomfort etc etc.
The procedure took I’d say about 7secs per eye and there was no smell, no pain, and no discomfort. The worst aspect of the whole things was having lots of drops put into my eyes.
As soon as the surgeon let me sit up I could see – it was amazing. I really found it quite an emotional experience to be able to see perfectly after so many years of glasses and contact lenses and blurred vision.
I went home with a course of drops to take, came back the next day and then again a few months later for the last checkup to ensure everything is OK.
My surgeon says now if he hadn’t done the surgery, looking at my eyes he wouldn’t know I’d had it done and apparently I have better than 20:20 vision – I didn’t even know such a thing was possible!!
The operation really is one of the best things I have ever done – I feel so happy not to have to rely on glasses or lenses and it’s fantastic not to have to worry about my eyes on the rugby pitch.
I couldn’t recommend having the surgery done highly enough and the service and expertise I experienced at Accuvision was second to none.
I had my laser treatment on the 15th March 2008 at Accuvision after being turned down as unsuitable for LASIK treatment by two well known clinics.
The whole experience was reassuring and the staff more than welcoming and helpful.
The treatment went great and I would recommend anybody suitable to go along to Accuvision for advise.
Thank you all so much.
After an initial consultation with a well known high street optician, I was convinced I wanted to go ahead with laser surgery but I WAS NOT CONFIDENT with the staff who tried to answer my questions.
I then went to Accuvision, London and could not have been more impressed. All the staff were polite, patient and very informative – I trusted them completely.
The surgery went extremely well, no pain and my vision is better than I had ever hoped it would be.
The procedure regarding mono-vision was explained in detail and contact lenses were inserted into my eyes so I could experience what my sight would be like after surgery. You can’t get better informed than that !!
If you are considering Laser Surgery, believe all the positive comments on Accuvision. I recommend them 100%
