These patient reviews were recently shared publicly by Phoenix Hospital Chelmsford on their social media platform, highlighting their experience with ICL surgery performed by Mr Mfazo Hove at Blue Fin Vision®.
“I had ICL surgery at the Phoenix Hospital Chelmsford. Dr Hove recommended this procedure as my prescription was quite high, and the laser eye surgery I initially wanted (with my limited eye knowledge at the time!) wasn’t the best option for me. I’m so glad I trusted his advice because the ICL surgery has truly been life-changing!”
“I could actually see clearly as soon as I got off the operating table, and after a good night’s rest, I woke up with 20/20 vision and felt completely back to normal. The entire procedure was quick, completely painless, and far easier than I ever expected.”
“Dr. Hove and the theatre team were absolutely wonderful, and the nurses at Phoenix Hospital were so kind and reassuring they really helped me feel calm and comfortable throughout the whole experience.”
“Overall, a 10/10 experience nothing to worry about and I’m beyond happy with my results. Thank you, Dr. Hove and the team!”
