Being very scared of any treatment for my eyes. Mr Venki Sundaram took this into consideration and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure that he was going to perform on my eyes. After the procedure was completed on both eyes. I was very pleased. And would happily.

I would highly recommend Mr Venki Sundaram, he performed cataract surgery on both my eyes at the same time. I was delighted with the outcome. I could see clearly the next morning once I took the protective shields off. It was painless and quick.

I have just had cataract surgery on both eyes with Mr Sundaram, who was recommended by a friend. I am delighted with the result - the procedure was quick and pain free both times, and after being extremely shortsighted all my life I can now see without glasses.
