Mr Day, Aurelia, Cataract Surgery

Another eye upgraded from a Fuzzyvision into a Hasselblad.
The entire team from Mr Day, Aurelia and all the support staff combine to produce a flawless outcome.
It does feel miraculous. It is outstanding.

My visit to Moorfields Private Eye…

My visit to Moorfields Private Eye Clinic was fantastic. Mr. Alex Day and his team ensured everything was both professional and welcoming. They delivered the results I was hoping for—nearly eliminating my need for glasses. I'm extremely satisfied and grateful to the entire team.

Absolutely remarkable

Absolutely remarkable! From the very start, the service was five-star. Dr. Alex Day and Aurelia Iarca exude professionalism, politeness, and reliability, offering clear and valuable information. The entire journey, from the first consultation advising on the best choices, through the procedure itself, to the follow-up, was flawlessly executed.Unlike other companies, there was no pressure to proceed. I was thoroughly briefed about expectations, potential outcomes, and long-term considerations.Despite my initial nerves about the procedure, Alex and his team provided reassurance and guided me through every detail. They demonstrated how to use the drops, supplied ample information for future reference, and offered personal contact details for both Aurelia and Alex, although I never needed to use them.I can't recommend them highly enough. The expertise and competence they bring are worth every penny.

Perfect Vision After Half a Century!

I had astigmatisms and had worn varifocal gas permeable lenses or varifocal glasses for years, glasses and lenses since small childhood. I wanted to be glasses free at last, and I am: 20/20 vision and nothing can be improved! Alex Day advised me to have my eyes operated on separately so he could tweak the second eye if necessary. It wasn't. For work and pleasure I read a great deal, often very small print, and work on screen for hours a day, and I can comfortably read the smallest print and see fully into the distance too. Miraculous. I cannot tell you how thrilled I am with my perfect vision and how grateful I am to this very talented and exact surgeon.

Ultra professional as well as kind

My husband, David Watson, chose Alex to do replacement cataract surgery after my own excellent experience three years ago. With acute astigmatism, previously requiring varifocal spectacles, his preference was for better long distance vision. As it happens his post-operative vision is perfect, 20/20, with basic reading spectacles only required for very close work.
In other words, the operation has been a complete and unqualified success.
Alex Day, and his team, are ultra-professional as well as kind and helpful. We could not recommend him more highly.

I recently had eye surgery at Moorfields Private Eye Surgery, and I cannot express enough how exceptional my experience was. Initially, I was extremely nervous about the procedure, but the amazing staff made all the difference. From the pre-operation consultations to the post-operation care, everyone was incredibly supportive and professional.
Special thanks to Alex Day, my surgeon, who performed the operation with remarkable skill and precision. His calm demeanor and expertise put me at ease throughout the entire process. Additionally, Auriela, his administration assistant, was fantastic in coordinating everything and ensuring I felt comfortable and informed.
While there may be other places to consider for eye surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Moorfields Private Eye Surgery. The level of care and attention I received here was unparalleled.

I had a very high Astigmatism and 6+ prescription and i am now just under 20/20 vision, although i looked at surgery previously i never felt comfortable until i went here. My only regret out of all of this was i didn't visit them sooner

Trans-PRK - excellent experience and perfect results!

I cannot recommend Mr Day, Aurelia and their team enough. The whole team from the beginning to the end of treatment were patient, kind and professional - always there to answer questions or fit in an appointment if I was worried.

I had trans-PRK surgery and, although the recovery was a little tougher than I expected, I am now five months out from the procedure and no longer have a prescription at all - I am very happy with the results. I hesitated for ages as I was so nervous about the procedure/experience but wish I'd done it sooner!

I had a great experience at Moorfields Privat Eye Clinic. Mr Alex Day and his team provided a very professional and friendly experience. The outcome was exactly what I asked for, life 'almost' without glasses. I am very happy and many thanks to the team.

ICL surgery - highly recommend

I recently had ICL surgery with Mr Day through Moorfields Private and could not recommend him and his team more highly.

From initial consultation, to the procedure on the day, to post-op care - Mr Day, Aurelia and the team have been informative and caring throughout. The actual surgery was very quick and I was well looked after all the way through. My recovery was well- managed and my eyes are doing really well with their new 20:20 vision.

I have a high and complex prescription so was initially a little nervous about taking this step but I’m so glad I did - this is the best gift I’ve ever given myself.

Look no further.

Having recently gone through laser surgery with Mr Alex Day, I can wholeheartedly recommend him and his staff. From booking the first consultation to post-op checks, Alex and his team have been supportive, answered all the questions I had and ensured I was comfortable before, during and after the procedure. My eyesight is now above 20:20 with little improvements still possible as my eyes continue their recovery and I'm also almost eyedrops-free s after a month and a half. Couldn't really ask for more, could I?

Incredible 5* experience

Incredible experience! 5* service from the outset. Dr Alex Day and Aurelia Iarca are professional, courteous, informative and trustworthy. The whole process went smoothly. From my initial consultation advising me on the most appropriate option, to the procedure and the follow-up appointment - everything was seamless.

At no point was I pressured to proceed like other companies I have experienced. I was consulted about what to expect, the likelihood of my outcome and also what to expect over the years to come.

I was pretty nervous about the procedure, but Alex and his team were reassuring and walking me through every step. I was shown how to use my drops, given a lot of information to refer back to after my appointment and given personal contacts details of Aurelia and Alex to contact should I need too (I did not).

Cannot recommend enough. You are paying for their knowledge and skills.

Alex is a fantastic eye surgeon

Alex has been a fantastic consultant, knows his stuff and answered all my questions in great detail, was brilliant throughout the entire LASIK process and is supported by some brilliant and friendly staff.

Highly Recommend, 5 stars

I had a consultation with Mr Alex Day, because my perscription was +2 and +6 for my eyes and one was a lazy eye, and he recommended RLE (Refractive Lens Exchange).
I can say without doubt that it's the best thing that I have done.
The process from start to finish was highly professional and I was kept informed with every procedure from start to finish.
The surgery was totally pain free and the results was recognisable within 24 hrs.
I have just had my post surgery assessment and have been informed that my eye sight is virtually 20/20 vision.
I do not wear glasses no more and can lead a normal life without them.
Thank you to Alex and his team.

What a seamless and stress free…

What a seamless and stress free experience, I don't know why I was apprehensive at having lens replacement surgery, all thanks to Alex and his team who explained everything thoroughly at every stage and took good care of me. Alex made me feel relaxed and comfortable at all times with a personal and friendly approach, highly recommended! The result is life changing!
