Her experience was truly outstanding from my first visit to the eye clinic in December 2023. Dr Abeysiri exhibited a high level of expertise and professionalism throughout our appointments, especially on the 3 January 2024, she created an atmosphere of trust and confidence in the care received. Her address during the examinations were truly commendable. She ensuring a comprehensive understanding of my eye health. In conclusion, she was caring, assuring, hard working and l noticed that she gave attention to all her patients. I am grateful. To mention but a few.

I could not have asked for a better consultant. A down to earth lovely person who listened to me. Then gave me perfect sight back to my right eye. She then offered as much aftercare as I needed. I will want to see her again when my left eye needs attention.

Dr Abeysiri has removed my cataracts in both eyes. I was in discomfort following the removal of the cararact in my left eye. I contacted her and she assured me over the phone that everything was ok, but suggested I meet with her for an examination just to be on the safe side. I did see her, and everything was absolutely fine. What a relief to know that your surgeon is contactable without having to rely on secretaries, and that your surgeon will see you quickly. I have recommended Dr Abeysiri to my friends that are now facing the need for cataract surgery.
