Reviews
Mr Vig 's team have looked after me very well since I developed Glaucoma . I am very hsppy with the care and explanation of the whole Team . Mr Vig always reassures when I have an appoinment . Truely excellent care
I had both cataracts removed by Mr Vig, 3 months apart because of other surgery. He is very patient oriented and happy to answer any questions. I live in Huntingdon but would always go back to London for any eye problems.
Mr Vig is a compassionate and knowledgable consultant who knows his speciality and delivers is expertise with the utmost respect for his patients. I cannot recommend him enough.
A great experience with excellent care and adequate follow up., post operations
I have nothing but praise for Mr Niten Vig and all the staff I encountered at The Western Eye Hospital whilst having lenses replaced in each eye and also stents inserted at the same time. The whole team that carried out my treatment were very efficient and inspired total confidence. I am very happy with the improvement in my vision and the lowering of the pressure in both eyes. Thank you very much for the fantastic treatment I received.
Mr Vig has a very nice and kind manner, which I have experienced seeing him both as an NHS and private patient. He carried out surgery on my right eye to remove a cataract and insert stents for glaucoma, and it was painless with minimal discomfort. Three days on and my eye feels completely fine, just slightly red, with no need for pain relief. I highly recommend him.
Mr Vig explain the procedure to me and answered all of my questions very clearly. He explained what to expect during the laser treatment and checked regularly while he was doing it to make sure that I was comfortable and okay. He put me totally at my ease and was very friendly.
First rate all round No problems with operation or pre and post op care!!!
