- Service Description
- LASIK is the mainstay of modern laser refractive surgery. The advantages of LASIK eye surgery are that minimal, if any, discomfort follows the procedure. The visual recovery is very fast, with most people meeting the driving standard in about twenty-four hours. Final visual stability is usually reached within a few days, although there may be a very small change over a couple of months or so. Up to approximately 12 dioptres of myopia with or without astigmatism and about four dioptres of hyperopia with or without astigmatism may be treatable, depending on the individual.
Cataracts - cloudiness in the lenses of the eyes - are very common as people get into the sixties and beyond, and are still a leading cause of blindness in some parts of the world. Fortunately, cataract surgery is an option for London residents suffering from this vision problem. Cataract surgery is performed under local anaesthetic, without a hospital stay. The cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a lens implant. It is now even possible to replace the cataractous lens with an implant that is able to focus - this allows a person to see objects that are both up close and far away.
We offer BOTOX® Cosmetic at our London practice to smooth lines and wrinkles, as well as to treat specific medical problems. In his consulting rooms in Harley Street, Central London Mr Bailey uses Botox for cosmetic enhancement (removal of facial lines, including upper lip and chin, and improving the jaw line—the 'Nefertiti Lift'), migraine, eyelid twitching and other involuntary facial movements, and to relieve pain and improve healing in some disorders of the surface of the eye. If you have migraine, then there is about a 70% chance that this will respond to treatment with Botox.
