As a professional illustrator, my eyesight is particularly precious and after accepting that my developing cataracts needed attention, I naturally researched “eye surgeons” on the internet. I could not be happier that I discovered Julian Stevens. The experience has been overwhelmingly positive, from informative initial consultation to pain-free surgery and thorough post op care. Not only is my vision sharper and more colourful than ever but I am able to drive without glasses and can see my 4K TV in true 4K! My thanks to Mr Stevens and his team for their highly professional and caring attention.

Having suffered with failing eyesight for nearly two years our family opticians confirmed that I needed cataract surgery. I chose Julian Stevens for this procedure because he operated on my husband’s cataracts 17 years ago and my husband had a brilliant experience and now has excellent eyesight. Julian performed on my right eye in August 2021, the procedure went flawlessly and I now have 20/20 vision in that eye. In September 2021 I went for my left eye. This was a bit more complicated as I also needed treatment for my membrane on this eye. Julian performed the cataract at the same time as Professor Bainbridge performed the membrane surgery and again both procedures went very well. I was given a detailed diagnosis and clear explanations of what I could expect - this eye will take longer to improve because of the membrane complications. Each and every passing day my sight on my left eye is improving vastly hopefully it won't be long before I can have 20/20 vision in both eyes. The whole experience has been fantastic. Initial and subsequent visits where I went through a very extensive examination, which exposed the membrane problem as well. I am very grateful for this as well. The team are very professional and caring throughout the entire process. I cannot thank Julian Stevens enough for helping me through this. I would also like to thank Ms Janet Bartlett for all her help in organising this process from start to finish and helping me through the procedures, thank you Janet.

Having had steadily deteriorating eyesight and wanting the freedom of not having to rely on glasses anymore, I recently underwent bilateral lens replacement surgery carried out by Julian Stevens. Mr Stevens and his team were amazing. The initial consultation was very in-depth and the surgery itself was both quick and completely free of any pain or discomfort. The pre and post operative care has been outstanding and my resulting eyesight is a joy … the glasses are history! I cannot thank Mr Stevens and his team enough and would highly recommend this type of surgery.

Absolutely fantastic service from the very first appointment. Always felt in great hands. Everything in the build up to the actual procedure and the after care was first class. I would highly recommend Mr Stevens. He has changed my life entirely and my only regret is that I wish I saw him many years ago.
