I am very happy and grateful to Mr Tariq Ayoub for his professional ability to restore my ever declining vision. I have been using prescriptions glasses for many years and even with glasses, I was having difficulty reading, specially the small print. Yesterday (23/09/2026) during the lenses replacement post op examination, I was told I have reverted to 20/20 vision. I am very happy to be able to see what I was unable to see before now. (Some things are better unseen - I didn’t know I had wrinkles on my face!) Also, a big thank you to Mr Ayoub’s Medical Team.

I was honestly worried about having the cataract surgery, but with Dr. Tarak, the experience was completely different. It took only 10 minutes, and I can see perfectly now! ❤️ He is truly number one. I highly appreciate his professionalism, expertise, and, most importantly, the excellent result of the cataract surgery. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Very pleasant experience working with Dr. Ayoub. He was very helpful when my father came for his cataract diagnosis and was given top notch surgery afterwards. The patient aftercare was very good, helping my father to recover quickly. I too had received great service during my eye examination for Laser Eye Surgery.

Long-term blepharitis sufferer. I consulted Mr. Ayoub who recommended having IPL treatment. I’ve had the recommended four sessions and my dry eye symptoms are so much more better.

The entire process for my LASIK was extremely clearly communicated and professionally handled from start to finish. I was made to feel calm and kept informed through the process of what to expect. Mr Ayoub and his team provided the best of care.
