The AVC team took a trip to the seaside recently for an open evening at Eyesite Brighton, one of our highly valued optometrist partners, to give a presentation on the range of corrective eye surgery treatments available at our Harley Street clinic. Also on offer on the night was an exclusive opportunity to save hundreds of pounds on laser eye surgery.
With some very welcome wine and nibbles to keep guests refreshed throughout the evening, the event was a great success with several consultations booked by the time we set off back for London.
As many of our patients often tell us, it took them quite a long time to make the decision to go ahead with eye surgery, simply because they weren’t fully informed on what would happen or where they should go for the most reliable and professional treatment. Of course, after treatment, they say they wish they’d done it years ago so we decided last year that we would help to shorten the wondering and waiting by taking our expert advice on the road.
The event was open to anyone, whether they were eyesite patients or not, who was interested in finding out exactly what’s involved in laser eye surgery or implantable contact lens treatment. AVC’s medical director and lead surgeon Mr CT Pillai welcomed the guests with an overview of the company followed by a clear explanation of the range of treatments available and exactly what is involved in each.
After the presentation guests could talk in detail to the AVC team about their own requirements and concerns and make a decision on the best course of action for them personally.
Eyesite’s optometrists were also on hand to introduce their patients to Mr Pillai and contribute their expert knowledge of the individual’s needs and suitability for surgery.
As well as laser eye treatment, AVC offers a wide range of procedures that can help people with practically every refractive error, however complex. These include LASIK and LASEK eye surgery, implantable contact lenses, multifocal implants, keratoconus treatment, refractive lens exchange and cataract eye surgery.
At AVC we have built a unique partnership network across the UK with independent optometrists. This not only provides the opticians’ patients with a reliable referral service for refractive eye surgery but also allows AVC’s patients to visit their own local optician for aftercare appointments instead to having to travel to London.
