Why Wellington Eye Clinic?
Where experience, technology, and transparency meet. For over four decades, we’ve helped thousands of people see more clearly , and live more fully.
Why We Do What We Do
At Wellington Eye Clinic, we believe that good vision isn’t a luxury, it’s a basic human right.
Good vision is the lens through which we experience the world, connect with one another, stay safe, stay active, and remain engaged. It enables us to read and learn, to drive and travel, to laugh with loved ones, and to spot the beauty in life’s smallest moments.
Whether it’s seeing your alarm clock without fumbling for glasses, hiking a new trail with breathtaking views, dancing at a wedding, reading to your child, hitting the fairway or catching a wave, clear vision lets you experience life without limitations.
The big moments. The small ones. The ones that matter most.
This belief has guided us for over 45 years. It shapes every decision we make, from the technology we invest in to the time we spend with each patient and the way we tailor each treatment plan.
Because at Wellington, we don’t follow the standard. We set it.
Here’s what sets us apart.
Two generations of surgeons. One standard of care.
Consultant-led care from first assessment to final follow-up.
When it comes to your eyes, you deserve consultant-level decision-making, not corporate protocols.
You will have a named consultant ophthalmic surgeon providing continuity of care.
We chose not to overbuild. We chose to focus on excellence.

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.
The lovely ladies that work here are friendly and professional. They talked me through each test they did explaining everything in detail making the process easier. The range of options they have are then explained and I came away feeling reassured and happy.
I am 5 weeks post LASIK and I can say it has been the best thing I’ve done. I researched a lot of clinics before committing to Wellington Eye Clinic. I could not be happier with the choice I made. From the first consultation, the care I received was second to none. I was given advice to make sure my eyes were in the best possible condition to receive treatment. This was then reviewed before I had treatment. On the day I was quite anxious and every single staff member I came across had such a calming nature. The surgery was explained to me and I was given time to ask any questions. The surgery itself was extremely quick and I was reassured throughout by Charlotte. I am so glad I chose Wellington Eye Clinic for my procedure. They have changed my life!

My diagnosis along with my proposed optimal solution was ascertained quickly and it was explained to me clearly allowing me to make a fully informed decision around my next steps.
Treatment I received was excellent. Start to finish, plus follow up support. Each member of staff was efficient, supportive, approachable and knowledgeable. I would seriously recommend for both those who know exactly what they seek, and more so perhaps, for those who are unsure or potentially overwhelmed.
I had an amazing experience! I had PRK laser surgery done last November, and everything, from the initial exams to the surgery itself and the follow-up appointments, has been seamless. Everyone in the clinic is incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, which made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. The doctor was reassuring and thorough, and the surgery itself was quick and smooth, it didn’t take longer than 10 minutes in total! I’m already seeing fantastic results and couldn’t be happier. I’m so glad I chose this clinic and would highly recommend them to anyone considering laser eye surgery.

I feel lucky to have had The Wellington Eye clinic recommended to me. Every visit, phone call was a pleasure. I am enjoying my new vision which is improving daily.
I was extremely sceptical and worried about having laser eye surgery. From the minute I booked and arrived at the clinic, I felt looked after. I had all my tests and scans and the staff were super. I met with mr cummings and he advised me that I had dry eyes and that he would prefer to treat it to see if there was improvement before preceding with any laser surgery. We did this , ad after 6 weeks I returned to hsve my surgery. There was no pain , I felt cared for and looked after. My recovery was really quick and most importantly, my sight is perfect.

Best experience Thank you to everyone in the Wellington eye clinic took great care of me. Sorry I didn't do it years ago Eddie Hilliard
I had laser eye surgery with Mr. Arthur Cummings in 2008. Within minutes I knew I was in the best hands — and 17 years later, I’m still grateful for the life-changing results and the care of an exceptional surgeon.
Everything was very well organised- totally professional. I felt very well informed both before and after the operation, including detailed verbal and written instructions. When you consider I was going in for 2 operations, the experience was unstressful - I felt very relaxed. The operation was a complete success- I no longer need glasses and my eyesight is excellent for both distance & reading.
The epitome of professionalism. A wonderful patient experience with friendly, competent, and highly professional staff.
I couldn’t praise the Wellington Clinic enough. The staff are so professional and caring. I’ve been attending for the last 20 plus years and I’ve never had a bad experience. Mr Arthur Cummings who I deal with is exceptional. He explains everything and talks me through the different options available to me. I would recommend the Wellington Clinic to anyone as I know they’ll be treated with respect kindness and offered the option best suited to their needs.
Amazing! I’m one week from LASIK by Mr Arthur Cummings and it has been completely live changing. Freedom from glasses is what I wanted and got but what I did not expect was the absolute amazing view of the world I now have. Maria Gallardo, Optometrist met with me a couple of times before the procedure to test my suitability for the procedure and she is one of the most professional, knowledgeable, thorough and empathetic individuals I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. She completely put me at ease and gave me huge confidence in the clinic. If you are in anyway considering this procedure I’d recommend that you have an assessment here.
I heard of the Wellington Eye Clinic by word of mouth. My own experience of the Wellington Eye Clinic was excellent. The professionals are knowledgeable, expert and caring. The pros and cons of potential procedures were explained in detail so that on the day of the procedure I was confident that I was in safe hands. I am delighted with the result and have no hesitation in recommending Wellington Eye Clinic.
Excellent service with thorough professional follow-up. All stages of the process are fully explained and Mr Cummings put me at ease during the surgery with his calm professionalism. My eyesight is now really great. I would offer one piece of advice. In general I feel a patient might be somewhat anxious for a number of weeks after surgery and to mitigate this it might be helpful if they understood their eyes and eyesight need 3 months to really bed in before the full benefit is realised. In my case, after the 3 months my eyesight was first class!
The best decision I ever made was going to the Wellington Eye Clinic my eye sight is amazing now no more contact lenses or glasses

Staff incredibly patient and courteous. Unbelievable attention and every test explained. Took plenty of time to answer all my questions
The facilities are top class, the equipment for assessing and expertise of the staff second to none, everyone so very accommodating and helpful, the best place in Ireland for corrective sight surgery.
I am a Patient of Wellington Eye Clinic for over 25 years. Initially my Doctor was Richard Corkin who performed Lasek Surgery in my right eye and was very successful. I have been attending Dr Arthur Cummings since Dr Corkin's Retirement and he has been amazing. He has carried out some procedures together with Cateract surgery in both eyes and very successful. Overall my experience of the Wellington Eye Clinic is excellent and I would highly recommend it. The staff are also most professional, friendly and helpful.
I saw Dr. Brendan Cummings today and the service & efficiency of all staff was exceptional Brendan Cummings is unbelievable at what he does, really friendly and inviting They are the best there is, highly recommend
I had the Allotex Corneal Inlay procedure in August 2024. The care I received from the Wellington Eye Clinic was excellent. All the staff that I dealt with were courteous, expert and focused on delivering an excellent outcome for me. I am very pleased with the results and I would highly recommend the Wellington Eye Clinic.
I found the level of service exceptional. What was particularly notable was that I was sent a video detailing all my options and treatments:
I recommend this clinic to everyone. From the outset the optician and surgeons made me feel confident, comfortable and well informed of my options. My surgery was a great success. Changed my life.
I cant praise the wellington clinic enough, they are amazing and i have been dealing with them for past 12 years. I recently had laser surgery in one eye again due to a medical issue with one eye and Mr cummings dealt with me again and his kindness i will never forget as i was very worried as had complicated past history. All staff were so kind and i wouldn’t go anywhere else because they r all amazing.
Top quality care and attention taken of their clients. My lasek treatment was pain free from start to finish and was such a quick procedure. It was the best decision I made and money well spent. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of attending the wellington eye clinic
I would highly recommend the Wellington Eye Clinic to anyone who is considering getting laser eye surgery. All staff members throughout my multiple visits were very friendly and the level of care I received was amazing. I was definitely a nervous patient but the surgery itself felt like a breeze. Mr Brendan Cummings spoke to me all the way throughout the surgery as well as all the staff members alongside him. I felt like I was in the best care possible. I couldn’t believe when I woke up the next morning able to see. Absolutely life changing. Thank you to all staff members at the Wellington Eye Clinic for giving me incredible vision ! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
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.
