IAN WILLIAMS

I attended Solasta in Omagh for a cataract procedure I was looked after at all times by very helpful staff. From my initial consultations to the after care everyone was professional, friendly and very informative. My biggest concern was seeing what was going on but you see nothing. I had no pain during or after my surgery and my eyesight is amazing both distance and reading. I would highly recommend Solasta Healthcare.
