I found Mr Sivaraj to be pleasant to talk to, thoroughly professional and quite clear in his discussions about the potential risks of the procedure but also the expected outcomes.
The operation itself was performed in an efficient and pain free manner and was absolutely successful. The final check-up 4 weeks after the operation was pleasant and complete. I can now see perfectly without my glasses once again!

When I came two weeks ago for a cataract operation, Mr Sivaraj asked questions in a kindly manner, told me what he would do and was efficient. He was able to answer my questions even on the operating table, and later explained all I should do in the next two weeks. This was important as I could have had a recurrence of the pan-uveitis that I'd had years ago. The whole visit was only one hour. Other staff were efficient, too.
This time I went back afraid that the uveitis had returned, but Mr Sivaraj examined both eyes, and was able to reassure me that there were no signs if Uveitis. He was able to advise about the AMD as well, and gave me much encouragement.
I can recommend him heartedly, for his warmth, experience and efficiency.
