Mr Quah was professional, approachable and reassuring. I had a few worries because of having had Lasik surgery 20 years ago. He explained clearly the different types of lenses available for cataract surgery, and which ones he would recommend for me. I immediately felt I was in good hands.

Explanation

I'm 32 years old and have been wearing glasses for the last 17 years. Whilst I was content to wear glasses in my day-to-day life, I found them a nuisance when swimming, diving, or playing sports. I asked my optician about laser eye surgery and he recommended I consult Mr. Say Aun Quah. Mr. Quah was able to offer me a consultation at HCA Wilmslow Private Hospital very quickly. Upon arrival, an optometrist performed several tests to establish the condition of my eyes before I saw Mr. Quah. Mr. Quah then examined me, confirmed I was a suitable candidate for corrective surgery, and gave me a comprehensive overview of the different option available to me. Following his advice, I opted for toric implantable contact lenses. These special contact lenses would be surgically implanted behind my natural lenses. The lenses were order and a few weeks later I returned to the hospital to receive the implant in my left eye. The treatment I received was superb. All the hospital staff were attentive and ensured I was comfortable and well looked after. Mr. Quah was excellent. He fully explained the procedure to my satisfaction and the skill he demonstrated during the operation was exemplary. The procedure was carried out under local anaesthetic, and lasted between 10 and 15 minutes. There was no pain or discomfort, and I received good post-operative care. I returned to the hospital a couple of days later for my second operation. The treatment I received was as excellent as it has been during the first procedure. The next day, the vision in my eye was great. There was very little, if any, discomfort during the recovery period. Mr. Quah saw me again about a week after my second operation. My eyes were tested and the results showed that I has 20/20 vision. I visited Mr. Quah again a month later and the vision in my eyes had improved further. My next appointment is scheduled for 12 months time. The pre and postoperative care has been excellent, and I am thrilled with the results of the surgery. I have been thoroughly impressed by Mr. Quah. He is an immensely talented and compassionate surgeon, and I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about undergoing corrective surgery.

I had ICL done by Mr Quah and I couldn’t be happier. I found the whole process daunting at first but he was very reassuring and took the time to explain everything fully to put my mind at ease. I found him very knowledgeable and could tell he had a very high level of experience in his field. It’s now been a few months since my surgery and it has been completely life changing, best decision I ever made, thanks to this brilliant surgeon.
