Testimonials

I was very anxious about the two operations I needed to rectify my eye problems. I received excellent care from start to finish. I was treated with kindness and understanding at every stage of my treatment. Everything was explained to me in great detail with plenty of time to ask questions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sid Liyanage as a competent and skilled eye surgeon for whom nothing was too much trouble. Thank you.

Sid has recently performed very successful cataract surgery on my right eye. I had been apprehensive as I have limited vision in my left eye but he was very understanding and explained possible risks and benefits clearly and unhurriedly. Post-operative contacts and appointments have also been excellent. I am very grateful for such a good outcome and can now drive confidently again!

I had lens replacement surgery in both eyes by Sid Liyanage in 2021. My eyesight is now better than it has ever been and for the first time since childhood I do not require specs or contacts for distance vision and can judge distances and angles much better when driving and doing sports. Sid’s medical care and surgical skills are both excellent. He is very approachable and explains medical details and treatment options very clearly to his patients giving them plenty of time to ask questions.

I was an optometrist for nearly 40 years and in that time sent many patients off to have cataract surgery, I then followed them up post operatively and saw the results both good and bad, so I was a little apprehensive when it came to my turn for the operation. I chose to go privately so I would have more time to discuss the many lens replacement options that are now available. Kieren was great, calm and knowledgeable, and the pre op assessment was very thorough and the equipment and measurements taken blew me away. We decided on a trifocal implant so I would not be reliant on specs afterwards, and Kieren suggested an additional procedure to help me get the best out of the operation which I hadn’t realised was an option. The operation itself was very professionally managed and today was my discharge day. I am pleased to say I have virtually no distance error and can read the smallest print so I am very impressed and pleased. If I was still in practice I would have no hesitation in recommending the Vision Care Clinic team to my patients and indeed when my other eye needs sorting “I’ll be back”.

An outstanding service. Simple, clear and timely advice. My eyesight is better now than it has been for 50 years. No pain and much gain. Thanks.

What a brilliant team. From the first call to seeing the Doctor was a pleasure. Highly professional – I have never undergone an eye examination so thorough.

From the first moments with Kieran and his Vision Care team, I knew I was in the right hands. Knowledgeable, calm and assured, Kieran told me early on he could make life changing improvements to my sight and he delivered in full. From the first appointment through to surgery and post-op, the process has been painless, professional and a huge success. From my first visit to Kieran and his array of high tech kit and brilliant support team, to the calm way he was able to talk me through the surgery in real time, my pre-match anxieties have been unfounded. I cannot recommend Kieran and his team highly enough. And… I can see clearly now.

From start to finish, I can honestly say that my experience with Kieren Darcy was handled in a totally professional and transparent way. I felt relaxed and under no pressure from the initial consultation and this allowed me time to make my clear and correct decision. His practice at the Clifton Nuffield site, has the latest machinery, which measures and checks every aspect of your Eye and this was very reassuring, as I had a very negative experience with a large multi UK Company a few years ago. On the day of the procedure, all of the staff from Ward nurse to theatre staff made you feel very welcome in a competent way making you relaxed and not having to worry. During the short procedure Kieran explained what is happening (not too much or too little) and this was very reassuring. Post Op experience also good, as I needed a question answered and this came back promptly. Hope this helps if you are thinking of having this procedure.

Great ophthalmologist, with new and exciting treatments which have hugely helped me.

My immense appreciation and gratitude to the expertise, skill and care from Kieran Darcy after my recent eye operations which successfully restored my vision. The quality of care has been exceptional, always being given time to ask questions which were thoughtfully, and clearly answered ensuring full understanding of my personal situation and next steps throughout the course of my treatment. Thank you, I highly recommend Kieran.
