Ms Abeysiri listens and takes the time to explain complex medical terms and procedures in ways that non-medical people can easily understand and relate with. In my case, she is willing to discuss and sometimes negotiate treatment options.
I am most satisfied with this consultant.

I have been seeing Miss Abeysiri for a number of years now from when she did my first cataract operation.
She always has a welcoming smile and puts you at your ease as well as being very reassuring and professional at all times.
Miss Abeysiri never rushes you and always gives you time to answer any questions or worries you may have.
I would thoroughly recommend her.

My eye pressure was very high and was not getting under control with eye drops and oral medicine.
Dr Poorna Abeysiri advised cyclodiode laser treatment and performed the cyclodiode laser treatment which went very well.
She explained the whole process and made me very comfortable.
After the process my eye pressure came within the limit within couple of days.

Miss Abeysiri has been treating me for my eye condition for nearly 10 years now, I’m always made to feel comfortable and never rushed ,even though the departments are very busy, I would say an important part of my visits is that miss Abeysiri always asks me if I have any questions or concerns and takes the time to answer them, I consider myself very fortunate to be under her care.
