Refractive Surgery & Laser Correction in Birmingham

What is Refractive Surgery?

Refractive surgery is a vision correcting procedure designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. It treats common focusing problems such as short sightedness, long sightedness, and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea or implanting a specialist lens inside the eye. Popular options include LASIK, PRK, implantable contact lenses, and refractive lens exchange. By improving how light focuses on the retina, refractive surgery provides clearer, sharper vision for suitable patients. It is a safe, effective, and long lasting solution for people looking for greater visual freedom.

Our consultant led team will guide you through every stage of treatment, from your initial assessment to your recovery. We take time to understand your vision needs, explain your options clearly, and ensure you feel supported, informed, and cared for throughout your journey to visual freedom.

Implanted Contact Lenses

Implantable contact lenses (ICLs) are advanced vision‑correction lenses placed inside the eye to treat high short‑sightedness, and astigmatism. ICLs preserve the natural cornea and the natural lens unlike other refractive surgery techniques. They offer sharp, high‑definition vision and are a safe, reversible option for patients unsuitable for laser eye surgery or refractive lens exchange.

Refractive Lens Exchange

Refractive lens exchange (RLE) is a vision‑correcting procedure that replaces the eye’s natural lens with a premium artificial lens to treat long‑sightedness, presbyopia, and high refractive errors. RLE offers long‑lasting clarity, reduces dependence on glasses, and prevents cataracts, making it an excellent option for patients seeking stable, reliable vision correction.

Laser Vision Correction

Laser vision correction reshapes the cornea to improve how light focuses on the retina, reducing dependence on glasses or contact lenses. Procedures such as LASIK and PRK use precise excimer laser technology to correct short‑sightedness, long‑sightedness, and astigmatism, offering clearer, sharper vision for suitable patients with quick recovery times.

What People Are Saying

Mr Masood was excellent as was Mr Williams during my initial consultation. Both were clear about treatment options, potential risks and expected outcomes. Surgery was stress free as any worries or concerns were cleared prior to surgery. Everyone did their utmost to ensure that you felt comfortable throughout the whole process.

Really pleased with the outcome of my procedure. and the attention and work of Professor Scott. I will always recommend him. He is a brilliant man and very caring.

Prof. Scott explained the injury and that it was worse than first thought. At this present time this has left me partially sighted in my right eye. Unsure as to what the future outcome will be. Professional and courteous at all times. Hospital facilities superb.

This was no nowhere near as traumatic an experience as I was expecting. Everyone who looked after me was exceedingly kind and considerate. I would like to say a special word of thanks to reception, especially Hawa. People arrive for eye surgery very apprehensive and nervous. The staff in Reception are cheerful, reassuring, helpful and kind.

I am thrilled with the treatment carried out on my eye by Rob and his team - just not happy fully with the outcome as not what I expected but that is in no way reflective of treatment received here.
