Testimonials
I would highly recommend Visualase Eye clinic in Bolton for anyone considering having laser eye surgery .From first contacting the clinic in January 2011 I was treated with the upmost respect from all the staff from Elaine on reception to all the opticians before and after my treatment and especially Mr E Hynes who first checked my suitability and explained in full detail what would be involved in the surgery and the after care , on the day of surgery again all the staff were excellent in how welcoming and caring they all were in putting me at my ease .It has been the best decision I have made , after wearing glasses for over 40 years I can now get up in a morning without having to reach out first for my glasses before I could even go to the bathroom , wonderful!!!!
I just want to thank Hilary & Elaine for all their patience with me.They were absolutely fantastic.Would recommend the clinic to anyone thinking of having their eyes done.
I had my right eye treated on Friday 19th Oct at 3pm. Treatment was painless and by Saturday morning my vision was excellent. Eye drops and care will needed for 7 days. Normally at my age reading glasses would be needed if both eyes were treated but I received advice that because my reading was OK without glasses I could have just one eye treated which avoids the need for reading glasses. I am delighted with the whole process from initial consultation through to treatment.
ALL the staff at Clough’s Bolton were very nice and proffesional. I would highly recoomned both the treatment and particulary the service and after service offered by Cloughs’ A very good experience !!
