I have had life long poor vision and finally plucked up the courage to explore the options of corrective surgery. After being referred to Mr Goel by my optician I was pleased to hear that he could offer me the corrective surgery to hopefully enable me to have less dependence on glasses. Mr Goel spent a lot of time and effort discussing the pros and cons of the procedure which enabled me to make a fully informed decision regarding the procedures. He was patient and kind in his manner whilst answering all my questions. I had the lens replacement surgery which was successful and resulted in the most achievable outcome for my particular visual problems. The unexpected final result of having not to wear glasses at all has been life changing and I am immensely grateful everyday
