Mr Sherafat’s care was exemplary.He was very caring as I was nervous,and explained the procedure as he went along,which was reassuring. The procedure has been very successful I feel and I could see clearly within a few hours. I have had no issues since other than trying to apply eyedrops accurately and keep out of the sunlight!

I first went to see Mr Sherafat in the middle of January. I had cataract surgeries on my left eye on 5 February and my right eye on 19 March. Throughout this period, Mr Sherafat gave me clear explanations for the surgeries both verbally and in writing. He gained my trust quickly and I had no concern about the procedure at all. Mr Sherafat’s secretary, Dodo, was always helpful and my questions were answered swiftly by her. Now my eyesight has recovered completely and I am extremely happy with this outcome.

I approached cataract operations in both eyes with some trepidation. One’s eyesight is one’s most precious sense. When faced with surgery, the best one can hope for is to emerge in as good as health as before surgery became necessary. In my case this standard has been far exceeded. It has been transformational (a much over-used term). For more than 60 years I have had to wear glasses full-time. Now I enjoy excellent vision, free of them. Only for close work and reading small type do I need glasses. The result has been liberating. I cannot praise Mr Sherafat too highly.
