 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. For several years, I have been seeing Mr Deshmukh for suspected glaucoma and have been very impressed by his skill and sensitivity. When he suggested that now was the time to have cataract surgery, I had no hesitation in following his advice. He is very good at explaining the procedures and I opted for bilateral surgery with premium interocular lenses.I was slightly apprehensive before the operation but was reassured by all the staff. They were quite right as immediately afterwards I could read the notices in the corridor. It is wonderful not to be wearing glasses. I am 83 years old and cannot recommend Mr Deshmukh highly enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can 100% recommend Mr. Rajesh Deshmukh for eye surgery.  Mr. Deshmukh performed a cataract operation on my right eye during March 2024 and on my left eye eleven weeks later. In each case, it would have been possible to drive within two days after the operation. I drove after six days, as I do not drive every day. I can now read a car number plate at 63 metres.  His whole medical team was very good at reducing my anxiety prior to the operations, which were painless. In each case, I would not have known that my eye had undergone an operation, other than the effects of the pupil dilation drops taking a full 24 hours to completely diminish.  Before the operation, my eyes exceeded the legal requirement for driving, but the possibility of not being able to drive in the future was never going to be acceptable to me. I believe we forget how good our eyes once were, as changes happen very slowly over a very long time-period.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m 58-year-old who had early onset of cataracts. The cataract surgery was complicated by some RK surgery I had around 25 years ago. The cataracts were affecting my golf,  I was struggling to play tennis under floodlights and drive in the dark. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. I now have perfect distance eyesight and can comfortably read texts on my phone and night vision is excellent. Mr Deshmukh took the time to understand my demands and complications with my eyesight. He clearly takes pride and interest in his work; I can’t recommend him highly enough.

My Both eyes cataract removal with lens exchange to correct vision has been carried out recently by Consultant ophthalmic surgeon Mr Ragesh Deshmuk in the private patient unit at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mr Deshmukh carried out bilateral cataract surgery and insertion of trifocal lenses three weeks ago.  The whole process was easy and reassuring.  I can honestly say that the surgery itself was relaxing and pleasant - if you’re putting it off because you’re nervous - don’t be!  This is the first time in nearly seventy years that I haven’t worn glasses and it’s life changing.

FAQ's

Regarding LASIK Eye Surgery

01. What is LASIK eye surgery, and how does it work?

LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is a laser vision correction procedure for short-sightedness, long-sightedness and astigmatism. A thin flap is created on the surface of the cornea, an excimer laser reshapes the tissue underneath, and the flap is then repositioned. The treatment itself typically takes only a few minutes per eye and is carried out using anaesthetic eye drops.

02. Am I a suitable candidate for LASIK?

LASIK is usually suitable for adults whose glasses or contact lens prescription has been stable for at least a year and whose eyes are otherwise healthy. Suitability depends on your corneal thickness and shape, your prescription, your tear film and your general health. A detailed assessment with Mr Deshmukh will confirm whether LASIK, PRK or a lens-based option such as ICL is the best choice for you.

03. Is LASIK safe, and what are the risks?

LASIK is a well-established procedure and is generally considered safe when patients are carefully selected and assessed. As with any surgery there are risks, including dry eyes, glare or halos around lights at night, under- or over-correction that may need further treatment, and, rarely, problems with the corneal flap. Your individual risks will be explained in full at your consultation.

04. What is the recovery like after LASIK?

Most people notice clearer vision within a day, although your eyes may feel gritty or sensitive for the first few hours. You will be given eye drops to use for a number of weeks, and you should avoid rubbing your eyes, swimming and eye make-up for the period advised. Many people return to work within a few days, but your surgeon will give you personal guidance.

05. How is LASIK different from PRK or ICL?

LASIK creates a thin corneal flap and typically allows a faster visual recovery. PRK is a surface laser treatment that does not involve a flap, and it may suit people with thinner corneas or those at higher risk of eye injury, although recovery takes a little longer. ICL places a lens inside the eye rather than reshaping the cornea and can suit higher prescriptions. Your assessment will show which option is most appropriate for you.

06. Will I still need glasses after LASIK?

Most people achieve good vision without glasses for everyday activities, but no surgeon can guarantee a particular result. Some people still need glasses for certain tasks, and reading glasses are often needed from the mid-40s onwards because of natural ageing of the eye (presbyopia). Mr Deshmukh will talk through realistic expectations with you before you decide.

Availability

This procedure is available at Moorfields Private Eye Centre (New Cavendish Street, London), Moorfields Private Eye Hospital (Bath Street, London) and Bishops Wood Hospital (Northwood), performed personally by Mr. Rajesh Deshmukh.
