Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Robert Potter - Posted on 14 December 2023
I went to my optometrist on 28th Oct and got referred. The referral service rang me on the 29th, where I chose Spa Medica Leics. They rang me on the 30th and offered me an assessment appointment on the 1st Dec. I had my cataract surgery on the 13th Dec. This was my 2nd eye and again all the staff, clinicians and surgeon were brilliant. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.

Review titled Fantastic Treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Kenneth HOLLINGSWORTH - Posted on 28 December 2023
With macular degeneration in my right eye I was worried about having the cataract in my only good eye seen to. I am glad to say the worry was needless. The Staff I saw were all very polite and helpful. The Surgeon was absolutely brilliant. Whilst I found the experience 'on-the-table' uncomfortable, not painful, just uncomfortable, I cannot praise the work done enough. Although my eye was sore afterwards and I was glad to get to bed that night you could have knocked me over with a feather when the next morning the eye shield was removed and after bathing my eyelids I was absolutely stunned to find I could see clearer than I could imagine. I read the number plate of a car parked over 25 metres away, without glasses, so clearly. I have maintained the post - op directions to the letter 'T' and cannot get over the clarity of vision I now have. I expected my vision to be blurred for a few days but nothing prepared me for this crystal clear vision the day after surgery. Because of the macular degeneration in my right eye, which cannot be cured, I am a bit paranoid about my left eye which I rely so heavily upon. Whether the NHS /Spa will do anything about the cataract in my right eye remains to be seen but I am hopeful they will. I feel confident that in a couple of weeks when I have my post - op check up by my optometrist, she will confirm I would clearly and easily pass the DVLA eyesight requirements which alas was rather borderline prior to the op. So thank you to all the Staff and Surgeon for such a wonderful gift, and just before Xmas, Santa couldn't have improved on that.

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mick - Posted on 20 November 2023
Both my eyes have now had the cataracts removed by Spa Medica Leicester. From the assessment appointment to the procedure appointment on both occasions every member of personal I met was friendly, helpful and informative. They all showed total intent in making me feel comfortable. The surgeon during my second procedure was excellent, explained everything to me before and during the procedure, I would highly recommend Spa Medica for cataract procedures.

Review titled Fabulous experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jenny M - Posted on 03 November 2023
From start to finish the staff at Leicester were very reassuring, explaining each step clearly. I was worried about having cataract surgery but needn't have done. I've gone from very poor short sight to being able to see distances without glasses which is amazing. I can't wait to have the second one done. Thank you SpaMedica.

Review titled Awful, waste of time
Rated 1 star out of 5
by RAF - Posted on 27 October 2023
Referred for cataract replacement on urgent basis due to rapid deterioration possibly due to steroid medication. Sight rapidly failing in one eye over a matter of weeks, struggling with work (computer based) and had injuries with poor balance and weakened sight. Filled in long 'life-style' forms stating how badly routine tasks impinged upon. After multiple tests got rejected as visual acuity is not bad enough as yet. No consideration given to my earlier statements regarding impact on life despite NHS guidelines that "Surgery is usually offered on the NHS if your cataracts are affecting your eyesight and quality of life. The decision to have surgery should not be based solely on your eye test (visual acuity) results." Feel really angry that my time has been wasted and I will have to endure longer with this condition. It doesn't inspire me to return to this clinic when (without doubt) I am re-referred in the near future.

Dear patient, your local NHS commissioners set the referral criteria for patients based in your area. This will usually depend on the results of a recent eye test and how cataracts are affecting your day-to-day life. SpaMedica is only able to treat patients who meet the local referral criteria. Wishing you all the best for the future. Kind regards, SpaMedica.
