Mr Saeed and his team are very welcoming and professional. My experience was very positive throughout the intraocular les replacement process. Six days post operatively my vision is already better than before surgery with glasses and expected to improve. The procedure was painless and I would highly recommend Mr Saeed and his team.

Mr Saeed has been amazing! I have been treated so well by everyone during the treatment I have had. My vision now is as good as I could hope for at this stage of life. Though there were complications along the way mr Saeed was positive of a good outcome all the time and we are now there! The man is genius! Thank you. Glenda C.

I would not hesitate in recommending Mr Saeed. I had cataract surgery in both eyes, a month apart and the whole process from initial consultation to follow up appointments was excellent.

I recently underwent lens replacement surgery with Dr. Saeed, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I was recommended this procedure because I was tired of relying on glasses for both near and distance vision, it felt like my eyesight was just getting worse over time. Dr. Saeed and his team were incredibly professional and reassuring throughout the whole process, and now I’m thrilled to say I no longer need glasses at all. It’s been a life changer, and I’m genuinely grateful for his expertise and care.

An absolutely brilliant experience from start to finish. Everything was explained by all the staff who dealt with me. No more glasses for me following bilateral intraocular lens replacement.

Mr Saeed was extremely thorough, talked me through all the issues I had with my eyes, answered questions and gave sound advice. I had my cataracts done by him and before the surgery he talked me through my options in terms of what lenses to get implanted. The most common lens used is a mono-focal which corrects myopia but leaves most patients needing reading glasses. I said I wanted my near vision to be good and didn’t want reading glasses but didn’t mind slight myopia (my original prescription was very high -7.5 and -8). He listened and took this on board. I also had bad astigmatism so he suggested getting a Toric lens. I had my second eye done just 5 days after the first one and both eyes settled down quickly and I feel like I have new eyes now. I am really glad I decided to get the surgery done by him: he doesn’t give the impression of doing assembly line type procedures but really takes time to consider each case properly and LISTEN to the patient. He is very calm and super professional.
