A very friendly experience from beginning to end. The staff were great and the consultant Mr Hamada was excellent at easing any fears I had. Surgery was painless and quick, staff were very reassuring. Would certainly recommend this clinic to anyone who has cataracts and decides on RLE treatment.
Just had my lens surgery with Dr Hamada. I was very nervous on the day of surgery as I was having both my eyes done on the same day. But there was no need it went very smoothly and very happy with my new eyes.
All I can say is WOW, WOW WOW. I am writing this overwhelming endorsement 48 hours after having RLE in both eyes, pain-free with better than 20/20 vision. For those of you doing your research, I can absolutely confirm the RLE procedure is pain-free in Mr Samer Hamada’s miracle hands… THANK YOU SO MUCH…
