She spent a lot of time with me explaining the benefits and small risks of Cataract surgery. Both eyes were treated and I am entirely happy with the result. Very friendly and professional, I would highly recommend.

Miss Abeysiri is extremely knowledgable and professional. She puts patients at ease, listens carefully to their questions and takes time to explain the results of the tests. She reviews the patient’s case notes and summarises how the eyes have changed over time and what treatment may be required in the future.
This review is written on behalf of the patient, Brenda Dixon.

Ms Abeysiri has looked after me for a number of years now since i was diagnosed with Glaucoma. She has done laser treatment and cataracts to both my eyes. A very caring and professional doctor, so would recommend her to all.
