“The whole experience was fantastic. I found the staff to be very caring and considerate. The whole experience was excellent and thanks to the staff and the surgeon my sight is better than I could ever have hoped. As to price? What price can you put on your sight? I would thoroughly recommend Vision Scotland Ratho to anyone with sight problems. Thank you very much.”

“My experience with vision scotland was seemless from start to finish.I had bilateral cataract surgery and fitted with trifocal lens Having been very short sighted for many many years and relied on contact lens and glasses every day,i am now free of contacts and specs and can see perfectly without aid,it is life changing. The team in aberdeen were outstanding,from when i first contacted vision scotland,Roslyn guided me through the whole process,putting off a lot of time and explaining everything clearly,a mention also for Jane the nurse in aberdeen who was fantastic and of course the surgeon Johathan Ross who carried out the operation,he is a highly skilled and professional person. I would recommend vision scotland to anyone For me it has been life changing and good value for money.”

“From the moment this basket case (me) arrived like a scared little kitten I was treated so compassionately which was even though I was very emotional was exactly what I needed. They talk you through what they are doing and why so none of it is a surprise. I wasn’t the easiest of patients but the way in which they got round my phobia of eyeball touching was nothing short of exceptional. Thank you so much to every one of the team from Surgeon to The person who helped me r-book my Uber home (I was so early finished) I cannot thank you enough. On Friday morning y distance vision was nothing short of transformed.”

“Eternally grateful to Vision Scotland. (10 out of 10) Very professional from the initial consultation right through to the procedure itself. So impressive how the team builds a comprehensive picture of the current status of your eyes using state of art equipment with everything being explained along the way. I had one cataract removed and cannot remember the last time that everything was so bright, detailed and clear. The actual surgery was totally painless and surprisingly quick. My surgeon was Dr Sohista Saidkasimova, big thank you. In fact thanks to all the team, it does takes a team. Now just have to have my other cataract done next year. No hesitation in recommending Vision Scotland for cataract surgery.”

“Absolutely delighted with my bilateral cataract surgery at Vision Scotland Edinburgh. My initial in depth consultation was very helpful and answered all my questions. Surgery was booked for a few weeks later when I was warmly welcomed into the serene and comfortable waiting area. All the staff members I met were so friendly, kind and caring. A special thank you to the amazing Dr Shohista Saidkasimova who was so calm and gentle performing my totally pain free procedure. Afterwards, whilst enjoying a welcome coffee and toasted tea cake, a nurse kindly talked me through aftercare instructions of do’s and dont’s and provided me with a leaflet to read at home. The following day, I could not believe how bright, clear and colourful my surroundings were and was thrilled to discover I could read even the tiniest print without the use of glasses. Thank you all so much, I have no hesitation in recommending the excellent Vision Scotland. This experience was worth every penny!”

“I found myself in the fortunate position that I could choose where and when to have my Cataract surgery and because the NHS waiting list was 52 weeks I decided on Vision Scotland, mainly as I worried about deterioration of the eye condition causing damage. I would have had no issue having my surgery in the NHS if the waiting list had been shorter. The care and expertise I received at Vision Scotland was excellent all round. I found the journey home quite uncomfortable due to it being a very sunny day, perhaps more emphasis could be given regarding this. It seems the nursing staff all wear the same colour uniform so it wasn't easy to distinguish the RGN's and the unqualified.”

“I was quite apprehensive about having cataract surgery on both eyes, even though I was told there was no pain or discomfort and no need to feel claustrophobic, but your eyes are so important more than most other parts of you. Anyway, no need to have worried, no discomfort at all, wonderful results, I can now read certain things that I needed a magnifying glass for previously. The staff were exceptional in every way, every single one of them. Also, the price was so reasonable when you think what you are getting for it, your sight, the most important thing. Mr. Mehat my Surgeon was absolutely amazing and made me feel confident and relaxed from the beginning, I am so glad that I chose him and would recommend him to anyone he did an amazing job and I will forever be grateful to him, no words could convey how I appreciate what he has done for me. Thank you Mr. Mehat and thank you all at Vision Scotland.”

“Facilities, staff and treatment were of an exceptionally high standard. Initial contact staff were knowledgeable and informative. Initial consultation was at Aberdeen and tests carried out by thorough and professional staff. NHS were only to do one eye at a time but Mr Ross saw no reason not to do both at the same time and found me a slot at the Ratho clinic in Edinburgh soonest. This facility is easily found with plenty parking if you need it. Reception and lounge facilities for those waiting is excellent and I was dealt with on time. The whole team involved right from the start were friendly, knowledgeable and professional and during the actual process I didn’t feel a thing. Tea and biscs’ in the recovery lounge while I was ‘briefed’ on my aftercare(eye drops etc.) and I was on my way home in just under an hour.”
