Seb Morris
Professional Racing Driver

The operation that saved my career. I am a professional racing driver and was diagnosed with Keratoconus in 2019. I first realised I had it when I couldn’t see at night in a night race with headlights behind me as I was literally being blinded by the rear view mirrors (this had never been a problem) and noticed a change in “ghosting” in my eyes, I was missing turns and just didn’t feel as good as I was. I went to my optician and got directly referred to Mr Quah.

Mr Quah single handedly saved my career as if I had gone another route with my treatment and/or had someone that didn’t act quickly enough, my eyesight would have fallen far below what is required in order to fight for world championships in motorsport. Mr Quah monitored the progression of my disease over 6 months and then realised that I was getting far worse in a very short period of time. He acted quickly and effectively and performed Corneal Cross Linking. Now here is the best part.

Corneal cross linking is only meant to halt Keratoconus and not cure it, but Mr Quah performed the surgery so well that my left eye (the one most effected) improved from nearly -2.00 to -1.00 and the shape of my eye is not far from back to normal. It’s been a year since the treatment and I have check ups with Mr Quah who has now confirmed my eyes are better than when I first arrived to his office. An absolute miracle in my opinion and I cannot thank him and his team enough as it’s literally changed my life.

Please click here to read on all our speciality procedures

You are very likely suitable if:

  • – You wear glasses or contact lenses for blurred distance vision (myopia/hyperopia/astigmatism) AND/OR near vision and you are seeking an alternative to these.
  • – You are over 21 years of age.
  • – You meet the safety criteria (tested thoroughly during your consultation).

Please note: Whilst these are the general suitability criteria, individual criteria has to be taken into account for specific patient needs and the appropriate procedure applicable.

We are not a cut-price service because quality does not come by making compromises. However we are competitive and transparent in our pricing structure. We make efforts to ensure that patients are made aware of all price points in advance of any consultations/investigations and procedures, to enable our patients to make an informed choice on how they would like to proceed.

As a general rule of thumb patients can expect a 95% chance of achieving functional vision to a high standard (corresponding to their best vision potential) from their initial surgery.

As with all forms of surgical treatments there are risks of unpredictable outcomes and complications. 1 to 5% of patients may have some difficulties but in the majority of cases these can be managed. The risk of severe and lasting problems is very low at 1:2500 or less per eye (so both eyes getting affected is very rare indeed).

You will of course be given a full explanation of the specific risks and benefits of the individual procedure applicable to you at the time of the consultation.

Eye doctors are at least five times more likely as the general public to choose vision correction surgery for themselves. The study, featured in the Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, surveyed 250 surgeons who perform LASIK. Of those, 62.6 percent said they have already undergone LASIK to correct their vision, and 91 percent said they have done it or recommended it for their immediate family members.
