Joe Massey (UK) – Lens Replacement surgery review

“I had lens replacement surgery and I’ve left it 4 weeks before leaving a review so I can leave accurate feedback.

Firstly communication with the clinic was 1st class, every question answered and explained thoroughly. Nela was my point of contact and did a great job, once flights and hotel was booked she organised my pick ups and drop offs, they went flawlessly.

On my first day at the clinic I met Beth, she is an absolute gem there was a slight issue with the Dr running late by a couple of hours so Beth took me sightseeing, I had a great morning!

Once I was assessed by the medical team and considered a good candidate I was booked in. Due to previously having laser eye surgery about 10 years prior the Dr decided to do one eye a day to be on the safe side. I returned the next day for the procedure

I’m sure your reading this looking for reassurance because your considering letting someone poke around with your eye, well consider yourself reassured, I am a squeamish as they come when it comes to eyes and I found the procedure to be an absolute breeze.
You initially sit in a room where the nurse puts in eye drops ( a lot of eye drops) then you realise that you can’t feel your eye, it’s not an unpleasant feeling, just weird. After a time i was placed into a gown and taken to the theatre where the Dr introduced himself. I then lay back and let him do his thing, the procedure again is not painful at all just an odd sensation, but all the time I was being reassured by the medical team and before I knew it I was done! 10 – 15 minutes.
And that was me, I returned the next day and got the other eye done.
So what to expect.
As I said I am 4 weeks post surgery and can honestly say it’s the best decision I’ve made in years. I can read small print up close again, see my phone and watch!
The first few days I experienced light flashes on my peripheral vision, this is normal and soon died down and now I don’t get any at all. I still see the occasional arc at the edge of my vision and again normal and will soon fade. The biggest thing however is the halo effect around lights at night, this can be quite daunting but again I’m told will get better over time, remember it takes 4 to 6 months to really settle in.
So would I recommend Beauty in Prague? 100% so much so my mom and her friend are going also a colleague from work (I should get commission).
My advice is shop around but you’d be hard pushed to beat this place and the city is amazing.
Great food, great beer and genuinely nice people.”
