Bexleyheath Eye Surgeon
Mr Sami Habal, MD, MRCSEd Ophth, FRCOphth
Here at Habal Eye Surgery, we specialise in ophthalmology in Bexleyheath. This is a branch of medicine dealing with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of the eye and visual system, which can be affected by a number of clinical conditions. Ophthalmology involves the diagnosis and therapy of such conditions, along with microsurgery where required.
As the UK and Bexleyheath population ages, eye health services are becoming more and more important. This is because eye health issues and diseases of the eye are more common in older patients.
Some eye diseases can be successfully treated if caught early and can be managed effectively with existing treatments and medicines.
If you can’t see as well as you used to or have some degree of visual impairment, do not hesitate to contact us for an eye surgery quote.

FAQs About Eye Surgery in Bexleyheath
Recovery time varies depending on the type of eye surgery. Some procedures, like LASIK, offer quick recovery with improved vision within a day or two. Others, such as cataract surgery, may take a few weeks for full recovery.
The frequency of eye exams can vary depending on your age, risk factors, and any existing eye conditions.
As a general guideline, adults should have a comprehensive eye exam every 1-2 years, while those with certain risk factors or medical conditions may need more frequent evaluations.
The most common type of eye surgery is cataract surgery, which involves removing a cloudy lens (cataract) and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) to improve vision.
The ability to drive after eye surgery depends on the specific procedure and your recovery. LASIK patients may be able to resume driving relatively soon, while cataract surgery patients may need to wait until their vision stabilises.
Always follow your surgeon’s guidance regarding driving.
While most eye surgeries have a high success rate, there are always potential risks and complications, including infection, dry eyes, glare, halos, and, in rare cases, vision loss.
A thorough discussion with your surgeon will address these concerns.
LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is a safe and highly effective procedure for correcting refractive vision problems like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
However, its suitability depends on individual factors, so a consultation with an eye surgeon is necessary before proceeding.
