David was very clear in his findings of my recent review. He was also very reassuring in the fact that my eyes were healthy & not developing glaucoma. A very nice man with a great amount of care.

Having undergone SLT laser treatment on both my eyes and the response is looking good.. I’m looking forward to having cataracts removed and hoping it will give me clearer vision.

Mr Richards was professional, reassuring and really excellent at explaining my eye conditions. We had an extremely interesting discussion about what was wrong and how worried (or not) to be, as well as what to look out for in future. I came out much better informed.
