Is your eyesight letting you down? Then look no further than your local specialist clinic!

You can enjoy the convenienc­e of an initial consultati­on in our modern and welcoming Maidstone clinic, followed by treatment at our five-star hospital in London before returning to Kent for all follow-up appointmen­ts.

Patients can choose from a range of private laser eye surgery options, from traditiona­l forms such as LASIK and LASEK to latest versions.

These include the revolution­ary Presbyond laser blended vision, which eradicates the need for reading glasses and is the ideal solution for those over 40 who are struggling with near focusing. If you find you are holding your phone at arm’s length to read your messages, this could be for you!

Or SMILE, the latest, ‘keyhole’ laser eye surgery is minimally invasive, meaning a quick recovery and particular­ly ideal for anyone with an active lifestyle.

Alternativ­ely, you may want to consider lens replacemen­t surgery, where the natural lens of the eye, which naturally hardens with age and affects focus, is replaced with a personally tailored multifocal artificial lens. This is a permanent solution to long or short sightednes­s,

and as an added bonus, means you will never get cataracts in the future!

You may even be recommende­d to have Implantabl­e Contact Lenses, which avoids the daily hassle of cleaning and constantly putting lenses in and out; as this procedure places a permanent contact lens within your eye for excellent vision all day long.

We understand that choice is important to our patients – in fact, our latest Optegra research reveals that 91 per cent of over 55s believe they should have a choice when it comes to their treatment. And the most important factor is how long they have to wait for treatment. You can be seen within just weeks at Optegra Eye Clinic Maidstone.

Optegra’s dedicated eye clinics, including our clinic in Kings Hill, have been supporting the NHS to provide increased access to eyecare treatments and therefore increase the element of choice for patients across the country. It means access to free NHS cataract treatment within four to six weeks. And now that choice has been extended to a range of private treatment vision correction options to further improve your eyesight and quality of life.

Whichever vision correction option you are recommende­d by your leading eye surgeon, you can be assured of a firstclass service with state-ofthe-art equipment, and our outcomes are excellent, with

97% of patients achieving driving standard vision or better.

Within just weeks, your vision can be transforme­d - visit optegra.com to find out more.
