I experienced no pain or discomfort during the process and during aftercare. The care that o received both for the procedure and subsequent checkups was excellent. I couldn’t recommend the surgeon, hospital and everyone associated enough. The results are excellent and better than I expected

Kanmin Xue is an excellent consultant and has achieved a superb result for me. It is highly likely that I will never need glasses for anything which was my hope and aim.

Kanmin Xue has been very friendly while maintaining a professional relationship. All the proceedures on my eyes have gone well and I can retain my driving license to date which is of all importance to my independence. I can read well and practice my hobby of wildlife photography. He took great care to help me retain my lifestyle and never treated me as a number but always as an imdividual.
