Mr Jean-Pierre Danjoux

The consultancy review and treatment I received from Mr Danjoux was excellent along with the aftercare at each subsequent visit.

I chose this clinic as it is attached to Sunderland eye infirmary and has a good reputation. I found all of the staff from the secretaries to the consultant very professional and friendly.At no time did anyone try to persuade me to go ahead with the surgery and there was no pressure placed upon me as I have heard reports of this from others using different clinics. The consultant explained everything to me in the consultation, including the risks associated with eye surgery. The procedure was quick and painless and the post care excellent. The optometrist was very friendly and approachable and always addressed any concerns I had.I would have no hesitation in recommending this clinic to anyone considering laser eye surgery. It was slightly more expensive than some clinics I’ve heard of but with only one pair of eyes I personally would rather pay that little extra for good quality care and treatment. Thank you to everyone at site for eyes!

I was advised that I only needed treatment for 1 eye, which saved me another £1300 which I was expecting to spend. Have worn varifocals for years, from first thing in the morning until last thing at night. It’s fantastic to be able to drive & see clearly again. I need reading glasses for close work. The result was exactly as described. reassuringly professional. Thank you

I am short sighted and have excellent reading ability without the need for glasses, My surgeon, Mr Danjoux suggested I had surgery on my left eye only which would allow me still to have the reading ability without assistance and explained that my vision would balance out between both eyes. At first after the surgery I thought this hadn’t worked properly, but I was very impatient, each day my site got better and after a couple of weeks my site in my left eye became much stronger and now some 9 months on my visions is perfect – I now enjoy life without having to wear glasses/lenses and still am able to read without assistance.Mr Danjoux is a lovely man and his staff at Site for Eyes are extremely professional and supportive, the after-care I received was second to none and I would recommend anyone verging on the idea of eye surgery to go ahead – it is definitely is not a painful experience and the benefits gained afterwards are immense.Thanks to Mr Danjoux and his team I have my life back, eye surgery has given me so much more self-confidence. Thank you!!

Surgeon Mr Danjoux was recommended to me via a relative who is a consultant surgeon working in Scotland and checked with her local/trusted eye specialist colleagues by asking who they would go to if they were to have laser surgery on their own eyes. My prescriptions were -6 and -6.5 with a slight astigmatism. I am late forties and have worn gas permeable lenses for 30 yearsSite-for-eyes, while a small unit, is located within Sunderland Eye Hospital (a slightly “old school” hospital rather than a modern high tech environment), and there is a significant degree of comfort in knowing that everything they do there is related to fixing eyes, and that there seemed to be a great depth of domain expertise in eyes all around. The surgeons within the Site for Eyes teams had particularly strong CVs.Plus points of Site-for Eyes- very good initial explanation of risks associated with surgery, answering fully questions on why lasik, how further treatment would still be possible if needed at any point in the future and so forth- surgeon did not over-promise but delivered what he indicated would be the result – functional eyesight which allows me to drive and play golf without glasses/contact lenses. – The same consultant who did the initial consultation performed the surgery and after surgery checks- The optometrist’s pre and after support was always professional and friendly- in general all appointments were on timePossible improvements:- immediately before the laser treatment itself a walk through of what the actual (brief) operational experience would be like would have had value, at least for me – e.g. that quite strong pressure would be felt applied to each eye to allow the surgeon to create the flap (briefly uncomfortable but I assume normal), that a slight odour might be possible to smell during the laser treatment itself, and that the red dot to watch would become thousands as soon as the laser started. While all understandable when thought about afterwards, they were all slight surprises at the time.Overall I had no problems with my eyes post-operation, and absolutely no discomfort or gritty feeling in them. I felt confident enough in my sight to drive a few days after surgery although it did take quite a few weeks for my focus in each eye to fine-adjust to their end result. I was also provided with special “synthetic tears” for use on a long haul flight I had to take within 5 days of surgery – again no problems. I can use computers without glasses and although I am at the point where I may need glasses to read a book or newspaper comfortably, that is most likely age related. Very grateful to the team at Site-for-eyes for now not having to deal with contact lenses (or glasses) anymore. and in my turn would highly recommend them to others considering sight correction surgery.
