(Laser Vision Correction)If you are reading these reviews trying to decide if you should go for laser eye surgery or not then just get on the phone and book an appointment, you won't regret it! The Wellington eye clinic have been totally amazing throughout my whole experience. I eventually plucked up the courage last year to look into getting laser eye surgery after years of talking myself out of it and I am gutted that I didn't pluck the courage up years ago! The staff could not have been more helpful and especially given the current circumstances they went out of their way to ensure I was comfortable and happy throughout all of my visits. I ended up getting LASEK as it was better suited for my eyes, the recovery was longer and a bit more uncomfortable than I hear the LASIK is but I would do it all again in a heartbeat. Anything is worth it to finally have 20/20 vision and not have to put contacts in every morning. The surgery was totally painless and was over before I knew it, I couldn't believe how quick it was! It was a really nice touch that my surgeon Dr Arthur Cummings sent a text to me the evening after my surgery to make sure I was doing ok. The aftercare has been super, with regular visits and check ups to make sure that everything had gone to plan, which of course it did. I could not fault the Wellington eye clinic at all. Thanks so much to everyone there for finally giving me 20/20 vision :) :)
As a Doctor I can appreciate the level of research the clinic have carried out into understanding the patient's journey. From my initial phone call to book a consultation, through various assessments and finally a consultation with Mr Cummings; the process was extremely efficient and professional. Mr Cummings preempted most of my questions and answered any new ones in great detail. I left the clinic well informed and knew I was in good hands. His skill is well known but his enthusiasm and ability to reassure was what stood out.On the day of surgery I arrived at 3 pm. The Lasik procedure itself only took around 15 minutes. I was well informed of every step of the process. Immediately after the Lasik I could see the clock on the clinic wall in almost perfect detail.I had minimal discomfort in the hours that followed but was armed with the appropriate eye drops in anycase. Only a few hours later on the night of the surgery I could see perfectly. A text from Mr Cummings to check in was a nice touch.In the two weeks since my Lasik the impact has been immense. Now the day starts when I wake up rather than when I put in my contact lenses after 20 minutes of clumingsly scrambling to get ready for the day ahead.The many benifits of Lasik are obvious, but for me being able to play with the kids without having to consider if I have my glasses on or need to find the contacts and working nights without worrying about falling asleep in my lenses leading to dry eyes or conjunctivitis are just two simple but life changing benifits of Laser eye surgery.As a Doctor, I researched all potential Clinics and Surgeons. This was time consuming but a necessity to ensure my eyes were in the care of the best possible team. Objectively and subjectively the Wellington Eye Clinic lead the way.I can't recommend Lasik and the Wellington Eye Clinic highly enough.
I selected the WEC by a devious route from another Eye Specialist who operates worldwide. The reason was they could not offer the right product (Trifocal IOL) to me.I got the Lenses replaced on Oct/2019. Any aspect of the procedure, from pre-checks, preparation, surgery, and aftercare is flawless. You are in absolute professional hands.I did a lot of private research in preparation of the surgery. On the end, I had not many questions left on Dr Cummings and was convinced it is the only right decision. Big thanks to Kurt V. and his YT video series (Testimonial Trifocal IOL lens implant). It answered questions I don't even know to ask.The entire work, together with the Lasik correction if needed afterwards, is on the end not pricier than from this big players which makes these low price advertisement.Thanks a million to the Wellington Eye Clinic Team.
I’m a year post laser eye surgery, my experience with the Wellington Cljnic has been exemplary! I couldn’t recommend them enough- the entire team, from reception and pre appointment tests, to Mr. Cummings and the team in surgery to the after care. Everything well explained, the whole team are very professional and helpful. I am delighted with the outcome- I wore glasses for almost all my life and now to see so well without them is amazing- it has been life-changing for me!!! Thanks to all in the Wellington Eye Clinic!
I had laser eye surgery just over 2 weeks ago and can’t believe how quick and painless such a life-changing procedure could be. I have been wearing glasses/contact lenses for distance vision for about 40 years. In the last few years, I was no longer able to see close up things while wearing my lenses, and then had to add reading glasses to my collection. When I visited Wellington Eye Clinic, they completed the most thorough assessment of my eyes and recommended blended vision – one eye corrected for distance and one for close up work. Dr. Cummings explained the solution and the procedure to me in really simple terms, and filled me with confidence. On the morning of my surgery, I was so well taken care of. A final set of tests and checks on my eyes, followed by a short and painless surgery and then a rest in the lovely recovery room. Just 24 hours after surgery, I was able see well enough to drive, use the small font on my phone, thread a needle, work on my laptop and so much more. I can’t recommend Wellington Eye Clinic highly enough. Everybody is so professional and caring at each stage of the process, and I’m delighted with my new vision. I should have done this years ago!!
I am an experienced eye surgeon myself, I had to consider, where I should visit to perform the procedure. For many years I was using contact lenses, but these were no longer good for me. I considered LASIK on my eyes. As I am an experienced eye surgeon myself, I had to consider, where I should visit to perform the procedure. As I have known Dr Arthur Cummings and the Wellington Eye Clinic for many years, I decided to visit Dr Cummings. His excellence, his warm-hearted art, his attitude to perfection are well known and convinced me to give my eyes to his hands. Also, his staff and colleagues are so kind and care about absolutely everything, that I just felt like visiting my family rather than a clinic. The procedure lead to a perfect result. Today for more than 40 years it is the first time, that I am able to look at my environment without any prosthesis. It is an overwhelming experience, and still after a week I sit down and only enjoy looking – at everything: I do not read the newspaper, but look at the contrasts changing on the paper in the light and those little particles in the material. It was three days after LASIK that I could do my work as a microsurgeon again, everything worked perfectly. As a result, I am convinced, the Wellington Eye Clinic and Dr Arthur Cummings are clearly recommended.
Some years ago ,I suffered the terrifying experience of temporal arteris,and Arthur Cummings saved the sight in my right eye..alas,It was too late for the other eye…but I am eternally grateful to him for the wonderful expertise of his brilliant mind,and gentle manner,giving me courage to continue on.His team are gentle, polite and encouraging.He is one of the best eye surgeons in Ireland, Thank you,Arthur
I am three days post LASIK treatment and couldn’t be happier. The Wellington Clinic and Dr. Cummings came highly recommended from a friend, and from my very first consultation I knew I was in safe and expert hands. Dr. Cummings and the whole Team are so kind and caring, providing such a positive experience. The level of care and service from the very first phone call to the treatment itself and the aftercare is second to none. If you are considering Laser Eye Surgery, I couldn’t recommend this clinic more.
For their excellent kindness, attention to detail, professionalism, a wonderful experience. I felt so very safe and cared for from the very minute I entered the Clinic to my after care. Ten out of ten. And to be able to see again clearly and with such clarity is such a bonus. Thank you all. Susan Murphy. A very belated “ Thank You “. 🌹❤️
