“My squint used to be my biggest insecurity.
Now my eyes are straight and my confidence is priceless.”

The daily burden of living with a squint
Making eye contact, meeting new people, presenting to clients, or simply having your photo taken.
A squint can affect every aspect of life, impacting your
self-image
self-esteem
self-confidence.
And there’s often emtional baggage left over from childhood.
The playground teasing, the comments, the names. Not to mention the patching, glasses and appointments.
Family and friends may not understand what you are going through.
But you’re not alone. Many of our patients walked your journey as well.
But now they feel relieved from the heavy burden of squint. Finally.
You have come to the right place and we will take care of you.
“After living with a squint for over 20 years,
surgery has genuinely transformed my confidence and daily life.”

It’s Normal to Feel Anxious
In the years before you found us, you may have been told:
- nothing can be done
- squint surgery is only for children
- you can’t have any more operations
- your squint is too small for surgery
- you’ll get double vision
- it’s too risky
Sorry to say, but often this advice was just wrong.
And many times, as ultra-specialists, we can help where others couldn’t.
But the idea of surgery can still be scary.
We understand
- your concerns about risks of surgery
- the effect of the negative advice you received
- the disappointment of previous operations that failed
- the traumatic experiences you have gone through.
We realise how big a decision this is for you. Our patients tell us how even booking in for a consultation was a scary step.
We are here to help you decide if surgery is right for you at this stage in your life.
We won’t rush you. Or pressure you. And we’ll answer every question you have.
Every decision is yours. We are just here to help you.
“I can’t believe I waited so long – the operation has totally changed my life
and how I feel about my eye.”

Investing in you
The most important decision in your squint surgery journey is this: Who do you entrust your eyes to?
People make that decision based on price or on quality, or a combination of the two.
Our patients value quality over price. They often spend months doing their homework to find the top expert. They sometimes save up, or get help from family.
Our patients realise the true value of the life-changing outcomes we deliver.
And we honour deeply the trust they put in us.
For me the whole experience has been worth every penny,
and I only wish I’d done it sooner.
