The London Ophthalmology Centre delivers a gold standard dedicated quality and modern surgical centre of excellence.

Mr Sharma was very patient and explained the whole procedure to me clearly (I was very anxious).  After the procedure he spent time with me to assure me.  Upon discharged I was given a 24 hour mobile number and was told to call if I had any concerns. I was impressed with the LOC, the support staff, facilities and cleaners were excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Sharma to anyone considering Lens Replacement surgery.

I would just like to say how happy I have been with everything to do with being able to see. One never realises what one has until it is taken from you - and being able to see again has been the most wonderful joy of 2015/16 My first consultation, to care in the reception, to the surgery itself, I have felt at all times in wonderful professional care. and an extra thanks to Mr Sharma for his gift in this field and thank heavens for him.

Result: VA: 6/5 u/a 6/6

I have been a patient of Mr Sharma at the London Ophthalmic Clinic since November 2015 and have nothing but praise for his skill, and gratitude for the difference that recent surgical treatment, in particular, has made to my life.  Having worn spectacles and then contact lenses for 60 years,  I can now drive, watch television, go to the theatre, and read small print without difficulty. AND I can also recognise friends approaching from a distance.  Mr Sharma suggested that the surgical treatment could be such as to allow one eye to read and the other to cope with distance vision.I was slightly nervous at first, but the result is nothing less than superb and I could not be more satisfied.

My mother would like to thank Mr. Sharma for the marvelous work he carried out for her Xen tube operation on her right eye. She told us that she didn’t feel anything and it was done so quickly that she was very glad this procedure was carried out. There is no doubt that he had prevented her from the deterioration of her eye contributing to her going blind due to her high intraocular pressure with Glaucoma. She was really nervous about coming for the operation.  I and my sister accompanied our mum to the operation and we saw that she was received and treated by Mr Sharma and all his staff including the reception staff with courtesy, kindness, and efficiency which made it a much better experience for her. The sister who gave the anesthetic had a sense of humour and made her relaxed and comfortable. After the operation at the post op follow up there was no problems and she told us that she felt both reassured and very positive. We would certainly recommend Mr Sharma.   She told us that things are so much clearer and sharper in her right eye. We would like to express our appreciation of all the care and consideration she received which did much to relieve our anxiety and also for the Mr Sharma’s delicate skills needed for such an operation. She has already recommended Mr Sharma and this Centre to a few people as she is very pleased with all aspects of her care at the London Opthamology Centre.

I came to see Mr Sharma after a referral from Miss Clare Davey at the end of 2015. After my first meeting with Mr Sharma we decided that I needed both a Xen implant for my glaucoma as well as having the cataract removed from my left eye. I had the operation on 18 January 2016, and this was then followed by laser treatment to my right eye in February. I was given clear instructions, and all my questions were answered. Both before and after surgery I was able to speak either directly to Mr Sharma or to Debbie in his office if I had a query, no matter what day or time it was ! I received exemplary care from Mr Sharma, the nursing staff, and Debbie, who co-ordinated everything. I would recommend Mr Sharma to anyone who needs careful expert eye care

I came to see Mr Sharma in May 2016 to have my glaucoma surgery (xen implant). I am extremely happy with the care, service and treatment I have received from the London Ophthalmology Centre. Right from my first visit with Mr Sharma, I found him to be very approachable, caring and knowledgeable about his area of expertise. Mr Sharma’s explanation of the surgery I was having put my mind at ease as he was very good at explaining it step by step so I knew what to expect as I was extremely nervous. He is gentle and I trust him explicitely! On the day of my procedure I was made to feel very welcome and comfortable and I was well looked after by all the admin and nuring staff. Because of everyones expertise and continual communication this put my mind at ease and helped me to relax. My post operative care has been excellent with 24 hour contact available, if needed, in the first few days after my surgery and regular appointments. I would definitely recommend the London Ophthalmology Centre to prospective patients.

It is my pleasure to report that I had the most thoroughly gratifying experience at your organisation. From the moment of my diagnosis, to the operative procedure, and to subsequent check-ups and enquiries made by myself, I have been treated with the highest level of professionalism and compassion from everyone with whom I have been in contact. I would also like to commend Dr Sharma and his surgical team in particular: their steadfast level of care before, during and after the surgery has been truly first class. Furthermore, whilst I appreciate that no services such as those which you provide may exist without their faults, I can only report to have no conceivable recommendation of improvement for your services, or at least none that would make a tremendous difference to the truly excellent level of service I received. Finally, I would not at all hesitate to recommend your Organisation to any and all persons who may be served by the London Ophthalmology Centre.

Mr Sharma is very competent & professional and he always put me at ease from initial check ups to the operation to the follow up afterwards.

I recently had Glaucoma surgery at LondonOC following a diagnosis in December 2014.  When the word “operation” was first mentioned, I was not keen on the idea at all.  During a consultation with Mr Sharma he patiently explained the reasons why it was necessary and the options available, which dispelled my fears and gave me the confidence to make a decision.  We chose the Xen Gel Stent option for both eyes, first the right eye and then the left eye.  The surgery was expertly accomplished and the pre-care and after-care by Mr Sharma and his nurses was professional and calming. The support from Mr Sharma post operations has been first rate. The ability to ask questions and receive an immediate answer is very comforting and I would have no hesitation in recommending LondonOC knowing that you would receive the highest level of eye care from Mr Sharma and 110% support from him and his team.

I am please to report that the total experience with you and your team at the Ophthalmology Centre has gone very smoothly. The surgical procedure was efficient and comfortable and after 3 weeks the results appear to be very favourable. Based on my experience, I would have no hesitation in recommending both you and your team to any of my acquaintances. I look forward to our continuing association and the next procedure on my left eye.

The glaucoma operation on my right eye in mid December 2015 was done using the Xen implant technique. This method is beneficial compared to the previous operation I had on my left eye in 2012, for two main reasons. First, it is much quicker. Second, it does not require post-op stitches which caused considerable discomfort, even pain, for some days.   Writing now, eight weeks after the operation, I have been surprised at how little discomfort there has been. Mr Sharma has been my consultant for some years now. He is friendly and professional, and obviously highly respected by those who work with him, which offers welcome re-assurance. His clinic in London employs friendly and competent staff. The Xen method is unfortunately not available on the NHS. Nonetheless, finding the funds privately is justified for the reasons given above and I would recommend it.

Patient: Mr C from Hertfordshire
Procedure: Glaucoma Xen micro tube
Date: December 2015

The outcome in terms of pressure reduction has been excellent in both eyes and recovery was remarkably quick in the right eye, rather slower in the left where the drainage channel is a little too wide. When it came to the surgical procedures it was obvious that I was in the hands of one of the most skillful eye surgeons in the world. He was reassuring before and during the procedures and meticulous about post-operative reviews, of which there were several. He was accessible on the couple of occasions I needed additional support and responds quickly to direct e-mails. I can definitely recommend the London Ophthalmology Centre to others: indeed I have already done so to my own father.

I have to admit I really did not know how to go about things when my sight in my left eye started getting very poor. I had had a check up in 2010 in Australia and had been warned to watch out for my forming cataracts. At the time I was installing a gas field in Venezuela from our ops office in Aruba. I had to go to London on the completion so basically – looked up “ophthalmology” on the web and chose your centre to go to. It was so simple making an appointment and when I arrived was duly impressed with the manner and professionalism of the office and Dr. Sharma. I had my eyes checked and my left eye cataracts had become a serious problem. Dr. Sharma outlined all the options available to me  - and I chose the one I felt most suited me and my life style.  Dr. Sharma gave me a number of informative leaflets about the upcoming operation and we talked at length  about the operation and all the risks and possibilities were outlined before I agreed to come in for the operation. This was on the Monday and I was scheduled for the operation on Wednesday.  On the Wednesday I came in , was taken straight in and prepped for the operation with Dr. Sharma explaining at length what was to transpire. The operation was done in 15 minutes and I had a half hour rest afterwards. Dr Sharma checked everything gave me eye drops and instructions how to use them, what to take care with and mad an appointment for a checkup the next week before I flew to Azerbaijan and I was out on the street shopping with the wife – with 20/20 vision for the first time in my life without any glasses. I followed al the instructions laid out by Dr Sharma and was absolutely delighted with the results. Flew to Aberdeen to visit my grandchildren and recommended Dr. Sharma to a friend of mine with Cataracts!!. Had a complete checkup on Wednesday with everything perfect and flew out on the Thursday. I was totally impressed with the whole operation and would recommend the ophthalmology  centre and Dr. Sharma to anyone with eye problems
