Discovering Sunway Eye Centre
I came across Sunway Eye Centre through Google Reviews. Dr. Umi Kalthum’s name stood out to me after exploring various eye centers.
Motivation for ReLEx SMILE Surgery
Recommendations from friends who underwent similar surgeries and the Chinese New Year promotion for the SMILE procedure motivated me to consider ReLEx SMILE surgery.
LASIK Surgery Experience
The medical staff, including the optometrist and nurses, provided excellent care before my surgery. The optometrist conducted a thorough and reassuring eye examination, while the nursing team displayed kindness and efficiency during the procedure. Their collaborative and patient-centered approach created a positive and supportive experience. I highly recommend this dedicated team at Dr. Umi’s clinic for anyone seeking care before surgery.
Immediate Reaction After Surgery/Expectations
I experienced an improvement in eyesight within hours, as expected. Vision stabilization took some time, and I diligently followed prescribed medication. The follow-up care was equally impressive, with Dr. Umi and the medical staff readily accessible for any questions or concerns.
Lifestyle Adjustments Post-LASIK
There were no drastic changes, considering my work doesn’t involve much direct eye contact (e.g., contact sports). I now stay indoors more, wear sunglasses outdoors, and avoid places that might irritate my eyes, like BBQ restaurants and dusty places.
Satisfaction Rating (Scale of 1 to 10)
I rate my satisfaction at 9. Enjoying improved eyesight after wearing prescription glasses for over 15 years, my vision is satisfactory. There are some glares, but I believe they will stabilize over the next few weeks/months, as thoroughly explained by the doctor.
Recommendation for Dr. Umi Kalthum
Absolutely. Dr. Umi is an exemplary healthcare professional, demonstrating expertise, compassionate care, and clear communication. Her thorough explanations helped me make an informed decision. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking medical care.
Staff and Eye Centre Environment
The eye centre is systematic and clean. The medical staff is accommodating, quick to respond, and experienced. Clear explanations and seamless post-operative follow-up made the entire experience positive.
