“My experience in the Wellington Eye Clinic was fantastic. From start to finish, the whole team were professional, friendly, and completely put me at ease. I have worn glasses and contact lenses for over 20 years, and have gotten increasingly frustrated with the discomfort of lenses, and the hassle of wearing glasses. With my work shifts in A&E, and all my training, it meant I could be wearing my contact lenses for 12+ hours, which I knew was not good for the health of my eyes.

I had considered getting laser eye surgery for a number of years, and decided to go for it, after looking into Wellington Eye Clinic, and asking a lot of questions, which the team in the clinic were incredibly well able to answer. I found the whole process fascinating, and was so impressed by how quick and streamlined it all was. The laser eye surgery itself only lasted around 15 minutes, and by my consultation the next morning, my vision was 20/20! I still can’t quite believe how perfect my vision is- it’s honestly been life changing for me, in my job, my sport and in everyday life.”
