Testimonials

Another happy Galaxy Lens patient:

I recently had cataract surgery at the eye clinic in Exeter under the care of Mr Ling and his team.
I’m incredibly grateful for the outcome and the care I received throughout the process.

Before the surgery I was struggling with increasingly misty vision and relied on glasses for both reading and distance vision.

I was very nervous about the procedure — so much so the anaesthetist recognised my apprehension and offered a small oral sedative, which made a world of difference. It helped me to stay calm and in control.

The surgery itself was surprisingly quick and completely comfortable.

I had several weeks between each eye surgery, but each took less than 10 minutes, and I felt very at ease in the hands of such a professional and reassuring team.

I have been lucky enough to have been offered a new dynamic lens called a Galaxy. Mr Ling explained the clever new design which seems to blend my vision, enabling me to see both near, middle and distant objects without lines or light distortions. There is no delay in the vision adjusting.

Although my eyes took longer than expected to recover, which was particular to me with some corneal swelling, it took around 6 weeks per eye for my vision to fully improve. The end result has been life-changing.

I now no longer need glasses for reading or driving, and the clarity of my vision is something I hadn’t experienced in years.

To anyone feeling anxious about cataract surgery, I completely understand — I felt the same way. But with the right team and great support, the experience and results were truly worth it. I’d like to thank Mr Ling and his team for their skill, care and kindness throughout a challenging time for me.
