The best decision I ever made!

Right from the start I was made to feel completely at ease with my concerns and questions being answered thoughtfully. I have worn glasses for over 50 years and with a high prescription and astigmatism these glasses were heavy and unattractive; I was doubtful that anyone would be able to help me. I found OCL vision through careful research and they appeared to be the leading company in my local area. Mr Emil Kurniawan was my surgeon and he was honest from the outset that it was unlikely I could achieve 20/20 vision but he said he could definitiely help me and he left me feeling that I was not a lost cause! The pre surgical checks were very thorough and once I had agreed to go ahead, the payment plans were easy to understand. I underwent Extended Depth of Focus Lense Replacement surgery on 7th August and although I was nervous, it was completely painless. My vision was hugely improved immediately and over the next few days it continued to become clearer. My first check up was with Mr Kurniawan on day 11 and a sight test revealed that my prescription was now -1 in one eye and -0.25 in the other with a good chance that this would improve further over the coming weeks. I have nothing but praise and grateful thanks for OCL and the skills of the surgeon Emil Kurniawan, as I embark on retirement with clear vision, safe in the knowledge that it will not deteriorate further and there will be no need for cataract surgery in the future.

Excellent care and treatment

Perfect from start to finish. Mr. Mark Wilkins was my surgeon and he gave good info and care from start to finish. I had a pain free cataract surgery in both eyes, was driving 24 hours later, and now, 10 days later am amazed with the results. I no longer wear glasses after having worn them for 60 years!
I would not hesitate to recommend OCL and Mr. Wilkins
