Vision Care Clinic Reviews 78

I had an appointment with Mr Sid Liyanage about an issue with my eye. I thought he was professional, caring and very thorough in his investigations with excellent equipment. I was able to arrange a fast appointment. I would highly recommend him.

The vision care clinic team are brilliant- very friendly, informative and flexible to your needs. The service they provide is extremely thorough, with all the equipment they have, appointments and follow-ups. It is a daunting experience having someone operate on your eyes, and it requires you to put all of your trust into the procedure and especially with the surgeon- I was able to do easily with Kieron. My procedure was lenticular extraction, in which the operation and recovery took a little longer than the norm, but I would highly recommend this team.

I was struggling with may night vision and my eyes were very dry having worn daily contact lenses for 25 years. I went to Vision Care for an opinion on the possible options for corrective lens replacement.
My ophthalmic work up was superb, the discussion about possible treatment options thorough and professional.
I never felt rushed to make a decision.
I was given literature to read about the options and surgery.
I chose the date for my operation.
I felt reassured that the clinical team were the best I could ever have hoped for.
Post operatively my vision was clear, sharp and better than I had had for decades. I no longer need to wear contact lenses or spectacles.It feels like a miracle for which I am eternally grateful.

I was recommended Vision Care Clinic as I was having an ongoing issue with my right eye. We were greeted by Linda, who was lovely and talked me though the procedure, the consultants who were involved in my treatment, I found very kind and reassuring, explaining all the treatment required, and ensuring the after care continued even after the issue had been rectified.
I would highly recommend Mr Kieren Darcy and his team to anyone looking for eye treatment.

It took me 5years to make the decision to have ICLs. Being an optometrist I wanted to do a lot of research and make sure that I was putting my eye sight in the hands of a good surgeon. I have to say Keiren was amazing. He was so calm and professional, and made me feel at ease throughout the procedure and the aftercare. I had to do a lot of travelling over the bridge as live in West Wales but it was 100% worth it. My vision 3months post surgery is exactly what we had planned for. I used to be very short sighted and couldn’t tolerate my contact lenses due to dry eye. Having freedom from glasses has been life changing. A huge thank you again to Keiren and the vision care clinic team.

The operation was quick & painless .
The recovery was also easy with daily drops over four weeks four times a day .
My follow up visits were dealt with by caring & professional people .
The outcome has exceeded my expectations & I am so pleased with the result of never needing to wear glasses again
Thank you all so much . !

first class technicians and service was really really pleased with my home visit TOP CLASS

I have worn glasses for 55 years .Usually I need a new pair every 2 years, costing £400 per pair.
I went to vision care and had eye lens surgery at the end of June. I could see an improvement immediately and was able to read without glasses. It took a further few weeks for my distance vision to improve but now I have better than 20/20 vision, amazing! And, best of all, no more glasses so no more £400 bills.
Great job Kieren and the team,you were all amazing and so professional.
Many thanks 😊

I am absolutely delighted with the results of laser surgery on my eyes. Before, I was ‘as blind as a bat’ - probably not fair to bats, but I felt quite lost without help. I either wore glasses (and needed a spare pair handy for those times I needed to look for my glasses) or gas-permeable contact lenses. From the age of around 14 I was at the mercy of my contact lenses which - while small miracles in their own right - were prone to getting grit or dust on them, and to spoiling my enjoyment of lots of small things - going to the cinema, riding a bike, swimming, hopping into bed. The tedium of caring for my lenses and being on constant alert not to lose them eventually got to me. A friend had had laser surgery on her eyes and said it was, without hesitation, a thing worth doing. I finally made it my New Year’s resolution this January.
This spring I researched my options for laser surgery and wound up looking at Vision Care Clinic in Bristol. I am so glad I put my trust in Keiren Darcy and his team. I am sorry to be forgetful of names, but everyone who helped along the way has been courteous, kind and highly professional. The day of the actual surgery couldn’t have been easier or more comfortable. The care and attention was second to none and all my questions were answered.
I wholeheartedly recommend Keiren and his team if you are thinking about getting laser surgery for your eyes. My vision is transformed (and my life with it!). Thanks VCC.

Eyes make me squeamish but after plucking up courage to finally sort my cataracts out my visit to the Vision Clinic at The Nuffield Hospital turned out to be a pleasurable experience. Greeted by friendly and efficient staff and hot chocolate I soon relaxed in the smart surroundings. Mr Keiron Darcy was completely re-assuring and highly professional and my operations on both eyes totally successful. I am now seeing the world through new eyes, enjoying vibrant colours, long distant views and reading books and music without any strain. What joy !

Great experience all around.

My husband accompanied me to see Mr. Sid Liyanage about the epiretinal membrane issue in my eyes for the first time this year on 23rd January and again for a follow-up session a week ago. Both times, I thoroughly satisfied with the consistent high level of professionalism in how Mr. Liyanage assessed, diagnosed and recommended the way forward for my eye issue. Throughout the 2 sessions, Mr. Liyanage listened attentively to what we expressed and when communicated to us he did so with respect, warmth and care. Equally grateful to the Care Vision team members who assisted me in booking and confirming my sessions and subsequently forwarding my medical reports and payment matter in a clear and prompt manner. Again, your service is very much appreciated. All the best.

I had multi focal lenses fitted by Kieran Darcy in July.
I was very anxious when I arrived for the procedure but was amazed by how quick and totally painless it was.
I now have better than 20-20 vision and am so grateful to Kieran and the whole team for the great care they took of me. Thank you.

All the administration was friendly, helpful and unfailingly efficient. The consultation I had with Mr Liyanage covered all of the issues of concern in a relaxed, clear, jargon-free way.

As a family we would like to thank Mr Darcy and his wonderful team at Vision Care Clinic, Bristol for the outstanding treatment of our very nervous 86 year old mum.
Mum has macular degeneration in one eye and had a bad cataract in the other.
Following the removal of the cataract she can now see again and in her words it has “ given me my life and independence back”
She was really impressed by the calm, reassuring consultation and left with total faith in Mr Darcy and his team.
The whole process, from the initial consultation, the clear and easy to understand consent form, procedure, after care and advice has been exemplary.
We cannot thank you enough and would absolutely recommend Vision Care clinic to everyone.
Thank you again.

I had cataract surgery on both eyes after a comprehensively reassuring consultation with Mr Kieren Darcy and his expert team. I am so grateful for the kindness and understanding shown to me by Kieren, Nancie and everyone involved from my initial 'phone call to Cheryl, the surgery itself and the post-operative checks. I am thrilled with the results (I can go anywhere without glasses for the first time in decades) thanks to their outstanding expertise and professionalism. Most important of all, I felt very safe with Kieren.

Fantastic service from 1st consult with Kieren to having all scans and lens consult trial with all of the great team and then lasik surgery
Very friendly and professional admin / reception team and an overall
great experience with life changing results
I am so pleased I went ahead with mono surgery as recommended by Kieren as the results are amazing !

I am extremely pleased with the results following my corneal transplants. Kieron explained everything very thoroughly and clearly and the service from the whole team has been impeccable throughout. I would highly recommend VCC

Two cataract lens replacements and two DMEK procedures for Fuch's were carried out separately by Mr Darcy over a 12-month period to early 2024. The final results are excellent. It is many years since I have been able to see so well; driving is now no problem.

For the DMEK procedures, great pains were taken to obtain and prepare endothelium graft material beforehand and to ensure perfect placement of the very delicate membranes. In view of glaucoma present, eye pressures were controlled throughout, with special visits to the patient into the evening after surgery.

For all four procedures, pre-operative tests and post-operative checks were done using the latest equipment by Mr Darcy, supported by his very competent and charming team. At each stage, results were displayed and explained very clearly and options and risks discussed, considerable patience being shown with questioning.

Mr Darcy's leaflet on DMEK and its aftercare was very useful; I can recommend faithful adherence to the instructions.

The administrative team was very helpful through all the consultations and follow-up and a pleasure to deal with.

I had a great experience having my eyes lasered with Vision Care Clinic Bristol. Everyone said it would be life changing - they were right! I am beyond delighted with the result. It was lovely to have Linda, Cheryl and all of the team’s care, support and reassurance throughout, as well as Mr Darcy’s expertise, calmness and care. Thank you!
