Testimonial (video) – Alex – Cataract Removal

Testimonial – Jordan – Cataract surgery

A friend recommended Praga Medica. My query was responded to very quickly with helpful suggestions and questions. I made one trip to
Prague for a comprehensive eye exam. I had a cataract. I have very difficult eyes to fit because of high diopter near-sightedness and
severe astigmatism. I returned in two months for the surgery. It was very quick and painless. I was worried that the surgeon would
have difficulty in getting the axis correct on the astigmatism aspect. But he assured me he had done thousands. The end result was
simply amazing. I now have 20/20 in that eye – distant. It is the first time I’ve been without glasses in 52 years! They told me
beforehand that I would need to use simple reading glasses and so is the case. I never had any post-op problems, no pain, no
infections. I’m very happy. Also, I would highly recommend the Andel Apartments. Getting to the eye clinic is very easy on trams 10
or 16 to the I.P Pavlova station. The apartment is very well kept up and warm in a beautiful location. There are plenty of restaurants
and a large Tesco market very close by. Finally, I very much appreciated the personal service of Zdenek. He made the whole
experience a very easy one in picking me up, dropping me off, giving me reliable information and a cell phone (which I didn’t think I
would need but it did come in handy), and always being there for my calls for help. He is fluent in English and an unfailingly cheerful
fellow. Thanks, Zdenek!

Testimonial – Kathy – Vision Correction

Were you pleased with the treatment?
I would like to say a big thank you to Zdenek and Ales for giving me such excellent service whilst in Prague. Everything went perfectly from the first phone call to the return transfer back to the airport. Having them to take me to the clinics meant everything went smoothly and stress free. The doctors and clinic staff spoke very good English so I understood perfectly what was happening to me. I had two procedures performed. The first being Intraocular surgery. After needing glasses for between 25 -30 years I now have perfect vision. This procedure was completely pain free.

Testimonial – Scot – Vision Correction

I was apprehensive about this beforehand but my worries turned out to be completely unjustified. The care and attention to detail
throughout was of a commendable standard. All of the staff I spoke to at both the clinic and at the hospital, including the surgeon,
spoke excellent English so communication was not a problem. The recommended accommodation was within easy walking distance of the clinic and itself was very good. I was particularly impressed with Zdenek the organiser for Praga Medica and Tereza who did an excellent job of
looking after me while I was there.

Praga Medica has been an excellent choice for laser operation provider. Communication in English has been without problems and every
promise has been fulfilled without fail. All in all good value for money. I felt that I was in good hands from the first email
communication to the good bye at the airport after surgery. I have no problem recommending Praga Medica to others who are considering
laser eye surgery.

Testimonial – Chris Barber – Testimonial Vision Correction

“I can’t fault this young man for his enthusiasm, his manner and his professionalism  – 10 out of 10. Zdenek met us from the plane, took us to the hotel, gave us a mobile phone with some credit on it, gave us tram tickets for the following morning visit, accompanied us to the eye doctor, who  gave me a full optical examination and an ECG and a full blood test.” We understand that it is our customers’ feedback that can tell the most about our services and quality of treatment provided at our partner clinics in Prague. We are delighted to publish an email of Mr. Chris Barber who was willing to direcly reply to one of our recent customer queries..

Praga Medica did ask me if it would be ok for you to contact me and I have to say that I’ve been delighted with both the service from Praga Medica and the eye clinic.  We arrived in Prague on Sunday 15th May 2011 and left on Tuesday 24th May 2011.

Firstly:- Praga Medica.

I, like you, was quite apprehensive about what to expect. Zdenek met us from the plane, took us to the hotel, gave us a mobile phone with some credit on it, gave us tram tickets for the following morning visit, accompanied us to the eye doctor, who  gave me a full optical examination and an ECG and a full blood test.  He then took us to show the location of the eye clinic which would do the operation the following morning, and then took us to the dentist and then made the introduction.  We used the mobile once simply to arrange a time to pick us up and take us to the airport.

I can’t fault this young man for his enthusiasm, his manner and his professionalism  – 10 out of 10.

Secondly:-  the eye clinic

I arrived at 10.30 for the op. on Tuesday 17th May – had a check-up the following day and full optical examination and a final check-up on Monday 23rd. May 2011.   Very friendly staff – modern equipment – lots of young people.

1 1/2 hrs later having had the op. in a theatre with ultra modern equipment and very efficient.

With regard to the lens I chose, my vision in my right eye is excellent, and I chose just the standard clear lens as it seems to be the lens which causes least troubles, so I still need to use reading glasses. Within 4 hours my vision was 90 % clear and 100% within 36 hours.   I have to score them 10 out of 10 as well.

If you want to know about the dentist please email me back but I can tell you it was just as good. I made a saving of about €1700 over the eye and teeth which paid for a great holiday.

If you need any more information don’t hesitate but be assured this is the best you’ll get.

Regards and good luck,

Chris Barber

Testimonial – Johannes – Testimonial Vision Correction

“The operated eye is working OK after 3 weeks, but might need some adjustment for astigmatism. I am very pleased with the way my extra problem was handled – I will go back this summer to have my other eye operated as well.”

Were you pleased with the treatment?

A bit difficult to describe, but I will try: -Plan was to change both eyes to multifocal prelex -Before starting the lense exchange the doc. discovered that my left eye had an unusual cataract or something else and the operation was not performed -Very quickly next morning I was helped into the public hospital which had all the special equipment and the staff to check it out. Nothing dangerous was found and I went through the operation later. The operated eye is working OK after 3 weeks, but might need some adjustment for astigmatism. I am very pleased with the way my extra problem was handled – I will go back this summer to have my other eye operated as well.

Professional staff, very friendly with fluent English. It made the impression of a highly skilled and well equipped clinic.
