Laservision Laser Eye Surgery Christchurch New Zealand Lazik Eye Clinic LASIK Surgery

Client Testimonial

"I'm so pleased I sought a second opinion from Laservision."

Fed up with glasses and contact lenses, 39 year old Malcolm Orr, a Christchurch interior architect and keen golfer, sought a permanent solution to his faltering vision.

After consulting with two Christchurch eye surgery clinics, Malcolm chose Laservision’s LASIK treatment. “To get more from my golf game and to generally enjoy the freedom of seeing clearly without the hassle of contact lenses or the restrictions of wearing spectacles in the rain, I sought a permanent solution for my short-sightedness.”

“The consultant at the first eye clinic I visited told me I needed a procedure that is quite invasive and requires at least a week to recuperate. That wasn’t an attractive proposition so I sought a second opinion at Laservision Eye Clinic. Following a casual visit to the clinic, I was booked for an appointment with ophthalmologist and clinic director, Dr Ian Dallison, who recommended the much less invasive LASIK procedure.”

Laservision Eye Clinic utilises the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q System, widely recognised as one of the most advanced laser treatments in the world for LASIK eye surgery. On arrival at the surgery for treatment, the patient is given a mild oral sedative to relax. The procedure itself takes about 20 minutes with the actual laser treating the cornea for only a few seconds.

Continues Malcolm, “The procedure itself was very quick and pain-free and my wife was able to drive me home about an hour later. Shields were placed over my eyes to stop me from accidentally rubbing them during the night. The highly anticipated post-surgery check up the following morning, when the shields were removed, was almost surreal – I had perfect vision for the first time in well over a decade - literally overnight.”

“Although I was quite anxious when I returned after the first week, I felt very reassured by the Laservision team. The results are even better than I could have imagined and have had an enormous impact on my quality of life everyday - I would have had the surgery done at any price. There are so many things that I can take for granted now – I can play golf, swim and wear non-prescription sunglasses without thinking twice. I’m so pleased I sought a second opinion from Laservision.”
