Our clinical reputation

Ethical guidance

Clear, transparent information

While laser eye surgery can help reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses for many people, it’s important to have realistic expectations. At your initial consult, we discuss your goals and explain the outcomes that may be expected based on your assessment. We’ll explain all potential risks and side effects. And we’ll be upfront if we find that laser eye surgery isn’t right for you.

Our commitment to patient care

Thank you for your trust

Our commitment to you is to provide continuing post-surgery care. After your procedure, you’ll be provided with an after-hours phone number to contact your surgeon if necessary. In some cases, over- and under-correction may occur, and a top-up procedure may be required. If an enhancement is clinically indicated within 5 years of SMILE®, LASIK or PRK surgery, this may be provided at no additional surgical cost.

Care for our planet

Shaping a brighter future for all

The same commitment we make to our patients, we make to our planet. We’re proud to operate using 100% solar power. And we’re working to increase our sustainable initiatives, to help shape a brighter future for all.
