Reviews of Edgbaston Eye Clinic
E. G.
Amazing service. I would absolutely highly recommend Don Williams if you have any eye issues. I have suffered 13 years with very sore, itchy and watery eyes. My treatment is still ongoing but within a few weeks my eyes are the best they have felt in 13 years. I can't thank Don Williams enough for helping me. Don't think about making an appointment, just do it. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
A. F.
I visited Don recently with eye problems having only ever visited a local optician in the past. I found him to be friendly, welcoming and very professional. I listened to everything I had to say.
The clinic had numerous pieces of equipment and he explained why each piece was used, putting me at ease. He took his time, provided clear explanations about his findings and told me about the short/long term plan and follow up needed.
He gave me confidence in the whole process . I would certainly recommend him and give him 5*.
D. D.
After struggling with my eyes for quite sometime I took the decision to go private. Thank goodness I did. Don had me sorted in no time, within 2 days of his advice (and drops) my eyes were feeling much better. My consultation was brilliant and very informative. Thank you Don, you are my eye angel and I would recommend you very highly.
e. -. (.
Wonderful people! Saw Don for the first time the other day for an eye issue that’s been bugging me for a while. After seeing multiple doctors and opticians, he figured out what it was and offered advice and kind words that put me at ease for my future eye health! I spoke to Simon on the phone and he was very informative and kind, too.
T. I.
I can’t recommend Don enough. After suffering with dry eyes for the best part of six years, I have finally been correctly diagnosed and treated accordingly. I have seen an incredible difference in one week. Don is an expert and was able to discover what was wrong within 3 minutes of examining. He is medical expertise and bed side manner is second to none. I am grateful to Don and for finally having eye relief. Thank you, Don!
S. T.
Having known Don both professionally and as a friend for many years there is no one I would rather go to when it comes to examining my eyes. I had been getting symptoms of floaters for a few weeks. As they had not improved I made the decision to get them examined. One phone call later I was able to see Don next morning. At his practice ,with all his state of the art equipment, he performed the eye examintion and diagnosed my condition immediately. He has an amazing depth of knowledge and brilliant at explaining his findings. He put my mind at ease and I can not recommend his services highly enough. Saved me waiting at BMEC eye casultly for 5+ hours.
D. S.
I can't recommend Don highly enough, he truly is an expert in his field, so friendly and probably one of the nicest medical professionals you'd ever meet! He explained my condition in easy to understand terms putting my mind to rest and couldn't do enough to help.
If you have any eye problems/ conditions I would certainly pay a visit to Don as his knowledge and professionalism is first class, an absolute asset to Birmingham !
N. S.
Incredible service. Having experienced both NHS and other private eye clinics I can honestly say nothing comes close to the quality and level of service provided by Don. The facilities are first class, but it is Don himself who really adds value. He is genuinely interested in the patient and their symptoms, and is also incredibly experienced and knowledgeable. One of the kindest and most friendly medical professionals you could wish to meet. Very relieved to have come across Edgbaston Eye Clinic and would highly recommend.
K. M.
Thank you so much to Don Williams for seeing me so quickly and efficiently yesterday, Don is extremely professional alongside a very caring manner.
he is going the extra mile with his aftercare supporting me to make the right decisions.
I would not hesitate in recommending his care.
R. H.
I could not ask for a better experience! Mr Williams is friendly, informative and professional.
I’m a major worrywart and Mr Williams went above and beyond to ensure all my questions were answered and my concerns addressed.
After many unsuccessful trips to the opticians, it was wonderful to finally have someone who listened to what I had to say, give a diagnosis and put a treatment plan in place.
Five-star service - thank you for everything!
P. B.
I have suffered with Dry Eye Syndrome for many years, having very unpleasant symptoms including stinging eyes on a daily basis and sometimes blurred vision. I really thought I would have to put up with this forever!! Then one day whilst scrolling on the internet for more information on my condition I saw the advert for The Dry Eye Clinic, I went to my appointment and saw Dr Don Williams, he was so kind and informative and he prescribed me several different medications and eye drops. My symptoms cleared within days!!! I would thoroughly recommend attending this clinic and seeing Dr Williams.
R. T.
Don Williams the consultant is very helpful and understanding with any condition you want to be help with , i went there with dry eyes with ghosting in the vision a form of double vision , he decided a treatment of plugging the bottom tear ducts to retain the tears on my eyes . My overall health on the eyes and cornea as improved significantly and the ghosting as reduced to all but nothing or near nothing and bought a breath of fresh air back to my mental health . I would advise anyone looking to go private to see don 👍
I. Z.
Thanks to Don Williams I am able to see more than I have ever seen in my lifetime. He custom designed mini scleral lenses for my complex keratoconus which has given me unprecedented distance vision.
c. a.
I suffer from kerataconus which makes it very difficult to see and was about to lose my job as I wasn't fit enough for the position. However after visiting Don at Edgbaston eye clinic, he gave me some hope and reassured me that I'll be able to see again with hard lenses. Don is brilliant as it took him ONLY 2days to get me these special lenses which makes my vision 20/20. I would highly recommend anyone suffering with eye issues to Don Williams at Edgbaston eye clinic.
Thank You Don!!!
J. R.
I had been struggling with dry eyes for over a year and neither my regular high street opticians or the Hospital could find a solution for my condition.
Don at Edgbaston eye clinic suggested a couple of different solutions and now, only 8 weeks later my dry eye is much better and my vision is the best it has been in years. Thank you Edgbaston Eye Clinic 👏
K. S.
After my laser eye clinic went bust a few days after I had my laser eye surgery, I received no follow-up check ups and all the high street laser eye clinics turned me away aswell. But Don kindly took me in and supported me through my laser eye recovery. I also experienced dry eyes up to a year post surgery which made my everyday life uncomfortable but Don recommended tear plugs which has massively reduced my dry eyes and increased my quality of life! I couldn’t recommend Don more, he truly comes across as an expert and gave me great advice (that was more educated than what you’d receive on the high street) and is clearly passionate about his field. Also a great guy who would always engage in conversation with me at each of my appointments which just made the service that much better. I couldn’t recommend him enough!
T. D.
I saw Don Williams after many unsuccessful visits to Birmingham eye hospital. After 1 appointment with Don, he referred me to a specialist and I'm now on the right track to getting rid of my eye problem. Don was so helpful, he listened to everything I had to say, answered all of my questions, and explained everything fully and clearly. He was determined to show me what was happening to my eye and focused on how to resolve my problem. I chose to make an appointment with Don after reading all the positive reviews about him and I am happy to add my positive comments about him too!
M. G.
Don at The Edgbaston Eye Clinic is fantastic. He helped me earlier this year with a dry eye problem that suddenly developed practically overnight.
His bedside manner is brilliant and he always had time for me, both during my consultation and beyond. Due to being off work with various ill health my anxiety was quite high; Don was more than happy to answer my queries by email and again face to face which alleviated these worries.
I would not hesitate to recommend Don and The Edgbaston Eye Clinic to anyone experiencing eye related issues. Finally, I would add that it is also a very covid safe environment which was comfortable and calming during these testing times.
Many thanks!
Mark
M. D.
Contact Mr Don Williams was the best decision what I could make. If you have some eye condition, I really recommend you to visit him. Everything went very fast. First day consultantation and next day I had my contact lens. I am very happy with professional service.
H. F.
I have been a patient of Don's for many years and cannot praise him and recommend him highly enough. Not only is he one of the most qualified and experienced specialist optometrists in the UK, he has a lovely bedside manner and is kind, caring and compassionate. I myself am a veterinary ophthalmologist and think Don's enthusiasm and passion for all-things-eyes is second to none! I followed him to his Edgbaston Eye Clinic and will always want him to look after me. I'm confident that he will always perform a thorough and accurate eye examination and offer all the latest, cutting-edge therapeutic options available. Thank you Don!
R. S.
I attended Edgbaston eye clinic yesterday to see Mr Don Williams after being passed around elsewhere with no real answers. Having arrived with a lot of anxiety following previous diagnosis and worry with what may be my issue, Mr Williams was fantastic. I can't thank him enough for explaining every single test and outcome and ultimately giving me some reassurance of what has caused my eye problem. He went and explained the short term and longer term plan and I went away feeling a different person to the one that arrived. I will now be visiting Edgbaston eye care and Don Williams every 6 months for further assessment and continued eye care because it is thag good. Thank you so much for the detailed and informative appointment, I can't recommend Edgbaston eye clinic enough. 5*

Earlier this year my wife visited her optician with a sore eye. Optician diagnosed blepharitis and said it was a long-term condition which many people have and could not be cured just keep it clean and manage it. He then went on to sell her some new lenses for £340. I was not satisfied with this and inform the optician we were going to the Edgbaston eye clinic for further investigation. The optician suggested we were wasting our money as they would be no more qualified than him.
Don Williams examine my wife and told us he would like to refer us urgently to one of the top Eye surgeons in the Midlands Mr Murray. His diagnosis was my wife had stage one cancer in her left eyelid.This has now been treated successfully. I’m sure you can understand how grateful we are to Don Williams for his prompt and professional action. He was certainly more professional and qualified than the optician we saw first

I have been a long term suffer with poor eye sight and have tried various optical options in the UK and US without success. One of the top eye surgeons in the UK referred me to Don Williams at the Edgbaston Eye Clinic.Don has transformed my life. In a matter of weeks. I have gone from poor vision (where I could no longer legally drive) to 20:20 vision. The clinic has the most advanced equipment I have ever seen (and over the years I have seen a lot!!) and Don is an outstanding talent, frankly he is a magician. I am just so grateful that I was referred to him. Thank you Don.
C. P.
I attended my appointment with Don Williams today after he had been extremely helpful following a retinal detachment earlier this year. Without being one of his existing patients, Don kindly helped arrange for me to see an eye surgeon and his recommendation was truly excellent.
It was a privilege to finally meet him today and I immediately knew that he was a superb person to help me with my continued recovery following surgery in August. He was friendly, welcoming and demonstrated a fantastic expertise. When you are in a vulnerable situation with eyes, it’s so important to trust the person looking after you. Don was amazing. He answered questions clearly, gave advice and utilised the latest technology to help inform his judgements.
The clinic was beautifully equipped with excellent technology and Don is evidently at the very top of his profession. In addition to this, he showed warmth and kindness. His compassion is indicative of an extremely caring person who fully understands the needs of his patients.
I couldn’t rate the care I received today any higher. Thank you Don for your generosity, care and for being someone I am completely happy to place my trust in. Any patient would be lucky to have you looking after them. I know I will be forever grateful for your help this year.
J. J.
I had perfect and professional service from my consultant Mr Don Williams. I would definitely recommend going here if your in need of private eye care.
S. K.
Thank you so much for caring for my grandmother and doing her catarac laser treatment. Opticians told us that she was losing her eyesight and just had to accept it. If we had waited any longer the situation would have got much worse. My grandmother was in tears of happiness the day after because she could finally see again. She can now read books again, a great source of pleasure for her. Thank you, brilliant service.
M. J.
Don has been our family optometrist for over a decade now and throughout this time he has taken excellent care of our eyes. He has an exceedingly well-equipped clinic and absolutely excellent clinical skills. Both these things came into play this week when I presented with a eye problem that needed urgent attention. You are in safe hands with Don and he fully deserves the five star rating.
S. S.
I was extremely nervous when I first visited the clinic but there was no need. The care and professionalism I received from Mr. Williams was exceptional. His sympathetic manner and easy-going personality put me completely at ease.
Mr. Williams quickly diagnosed my condition and discussed treatment recommendations – which I will certainly return for. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
D. S.
If you are looking for a highly knowledgable optometrist who provides stellar service and communicates clearly and promptly, look no further. I have consistently been impressed by Mr Williams’ clarity, diligence, and willingness to help ever since I first saw him about 2.5 years ago.
As someone with very little experience with optometry, I greatly appreciated Mr Williams’ reassuring professionalism, and the calm and clear way in which he explained every test I would have to take. Having seen the wide array of specialised equipment at his disposal, it is no surprise to me that the leading doctors I have been treated by recommend Mr Williams for any optometry needs.
I am extremely grateful for his service and I really cannot recommend Mr Williams highly enough.
R. T.
Don has been amazing helping me get to the bottom of my eye issues. After seeing a lot of doctors Don finally helped me get on the right path with my treatment :)
S. S.
Don Williams has practically saved my life! He's helped me get my vision back!! He is incredibly intelligent, he knows every single thing there is to know about eyes. Don is very patient, very professional, very kind and brilliant at what he does! I have had blurred vision for over 2 months and I could hardly see.. I went to the Birmingham Eye Hospital twice and had 3 GP Doctor call backs and all they kept telling me was it was Dry Eye Syndrome?? And just kept advising me to buy different drops and none of them worked?! My husband found Edgbaston Eye Clinic online and we read the reviews.. they were amazing! I then called Edgbaston Eye Clinic and spoke to a lovely gentleman named Simon, he was very helpful. I am so glad I went to see Don as he listened to my eye problem very carefully, looked through my blood test results carefully and then fully examined my eyes. He explained I did not have Dry Eye Syndrome?? What I have is Giant Papillary Conjuactivitis and he explained it to me in detail and prescribed me with some strong eye drops containing steroids for 6 weeks yet already on the 2nd day.. I have noticed the difference and I can start to see clearly..again!! He also kindly gave me some night time drops aswel. He has asked to see me again in 1 weeks time to just make sure everything is ok with my eyes. I am extremely grateful to him! I highly reccommend him!! Thank you so much once again Don!
M. A.
Don is the best doctor . He found my problem from the first visit and he gave me the best treatment in order to fight my problem. Honestly, he is great !
R. M.
Having been disappointed with my wife’s treatment on the NHS and due to my wife’s anxiety, we were fortunate to have found Don Williams and Trudy has now been looked after by Don for the last six months.
Don’s care for Trudy has been exceptional and he has gone that extra mile to explain her condition to her and has always been available to reassure her when she has been feeling anxious. Don is obviously passionate and dedicated to his profession, is patient and has provided and continues to provide a first class service to my wife for which we are both truly grateful as I hate to think how my wife’s eye condition may have deteriorated without his ongoing help.
Trudy and I would recommend Don Williams without hesitation.

I am posting on behalf of an elderly friend of mine who wanted to avoid the long NHS waiting list for cataract surgery. He attended Edgbaston Eye Clinic because they provide private cataract surgery in Birmingham. The service was seamless from initial consultation to surgery and after care. He was anxious about having cataract surgery however, after the initial consultation with Mr Williams, he felt very much at ease. The whole process and procedure was throughly explained. Two weeks after seeing Mr Williams, his distance vision is perfect and now able to drive without glasses. I would highly recommend Edgbaston Eye Clinic. Very professional and very knowledgeable. I now recommend Egbaston Clinic to all my family and friends.

I come from a country where healthcare is not very good. For the past 2 years I have been suffering from a headache mainly in the morning. I came to Birmingham for two weeks and mentioned my headaches to my friend. He advised me to see Mr Williams. Mr Williams saw me, did some tests, including putting a lens on the eye. He then explained to me that the drainage system of both my eyes are a bit narrow. My eye pressure reading at the time was 28. Mr Williams opened his clinic the next morning at 7:30 as he wanted to measure my pressure 6 times during the day.
My first pressure reading early morning was 35. At that point he discussed various options and the best option for me was to have a procedure to keep my pressure down as my home country does not have drops available all the time. Mr Williams referred me and the next day I had the procedure done and my eye pressure has been stable at 13 ever since and NO early morning headaches! Brilliant clinician and I would highly recommend Mr Williams. The technology in his clinic is also very advanced.
L.
Received a very professional service at Edgbaston Eye Clinic, Mr Williams had a wealth of experience dealing with all aspect of eye conditions, in my case it was Central Serous Retinopathy. We would highly recommend Edgbaston Eye Clinic to anyone who require eye treatments or eye tests.
B. P.
Absolutely amazing quality of care and attention. Don helped me in my referral and after care for my strabismus surgery. His calm and informed opinion not only helped me make the incredibly hard decision to have surgery but his knowledge as a consultant and surgeon in my after care was second to non.
I would recommend Don to anyone with concerns about eye health. He not only has outstanding knowledge and diligence but he takes the time to explain everything to his patients. A truly incredible consultant optometrist who I have much to thank for!
D. D. W.
Our experience of eye treatment with Mr Don Williams has been 'fantastic' - without getting silly about our experience it has really been a sort of 'life saver'. Over a period of several months he has been so caring whilst my wife has benefited from his very considerable skills and experience.
Our 'journey' (as it were) with Mr Williams began after two abortive emergency visits to the Birmingham Eye Hospital who did very good diagnoses of her eye problems but could not provide the emergency (on-the-spot) treatment my wife needed - The lower lid eye lashes had turned inwards on both eye and were scratching the eyes very painfully and causing infections.
Mr Williams has done a brilliant job in removing offending eye lashes and dealing with the resulting infections, and inserting specialist contact type lenses to protect the eye: he also linked us to an eye surgeon for corrective operations. Mr William's genuine care for my wife over a considerable period of time has been brilliant. In her initial visits he demonstrated what we felt was quite remarkable skill in painlessly 'squeezing' inflammation out of the lower lids .
We apologize for this rather 'wordy' review but we cannot give Mr Williams a high enough recommendation for his skills and his lovely patient care approach.

I visited Don at Edgebaston eye clinic in 2018 I was really struggling with my eye condition Kerataconus with ill fitting contact lenses, after speaking with Don he reassured me that he could help, his expertise in fitting me with contact lenses was second to none, and since then has stuck by me in assisting me gain further treatment whilst keeping a close watch on my condition.
He is always available to contact and responds extremely quickly to any problems, I cannot speak highly enough of the level of care and consideration and expertise that I have received through Don, and would highly recommend to all who asked, thanks very much Don for everything.

Don is an amazing Consultant Optometrist who I would highly recommend to anyone. He has a kind manner and really cares about the eye health of his patients. He has fantastic state of the art equipment and outstanding knowledge. He is very diligent and did very thorough testing of my eyes. As my mother has suffered from glaucoma and has macular degeneration, I feel very reassured to have found such a brilliant optometrist, as I know my eyes are in safe hands. Thank you
s. a.
I came to Don for a second opinion. Firstly I would like to say the equipment is fantastic, and state of the art, and Don took the time to see whether my dad had glaucoma. He was under NHS for glaucoma but it wasn't picked up, but Don picked this up straight away with his equipment. I would not hesitate in booking to see him, really friendly and you can rest assured!
K. S.
I could not have been more happier with the service we received from Mr Williams at The Edgbaston Eye Clinic. He went out of his way to investigate the health of mine and my husbands eyes. He was clear transparent and informative about everything. Highly recommend The Edgbaston Eye Clinic Services and Mr Williams. KS

Very rarely do I write reviews because very rarely do we encounter companies or individuals who actually go that extra mile and provide exceptional service that deserve a good review . My local optician referred me to the eye hospital having noticed a large dark spot in my eye, the eye hospital did a quick check and said it needs further tests and that an appointment would come through within 8 weeks. I really couldn't wait 8 weeks I was too anxious, so I sent an email to the Edgbaston eye clinic explaining the situation asking if they could look at my eye and at least provide some reassurance. Within half an hour I had a call from one of their consultants who explained on the phone what they could do to help diagnose the condition. Within an hour I was in his consulting room undergoing numerous tests with some of the most modern state of the art diagnostic equipment. The consultant reviewed the results and explained clearly his provisional diagnosis and what he considered my next steps should be. I went home and within two hours he had emailed me all the tests results. He also, with my consent, consulted other experts in this field and they all concurred with his proviaional diagnosis and what I should do next. The whole service from start to finish was incredible, the thorough way in which he explained everything gave me the reassurance that I needed and relieved me of having to wait 8 weeks. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Edgbaston eye clinic to anyone suffering from an eye condition Or anyone who just wants reassurance whilst waiting anxiously for an NHS appointment. Going privately is always a cost benefit consideration, the benefit in my situation significantly outweighed the cost and I was pleasantly surprised how affordable it was. Thank you so much to the Edgbaston eye clinic in particular to Don Williams the consultant optometrist - I'm extremely grateful.
S. M.
Very friendly, felt at ease when being tested on. State of the art equipment very efficient enough to pick out the slightest defect. Time taken out to get a check up was worth every second.
Very clear and concise of a diagnosis and helpful to explain it layman’s terms.
Overall a pleasant check up and would encourage the public to choose edgbaston eye clinic as it’s the best!!
T. F.
I used the Edgbaston Eye Clinic for my last eye check.
I have known Don and used his services for some years and have followed him along from his previous clinic.
Don is very knowledgable, always friendly, capable and very thorough. All this is now backed up by cutting edge equipment, which makes his clinic the go to place for a routine eye check, for patients with complicated eye problems and anything in between.
I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic.
R. C.
Before I met Mr William's I was visiting other doctors that couldn't diagnose my problem as well as he did. He was able to answer all of my questions. I believe that is worth to drive over 2 hour to have a consultation with Dr Williams. He is very professional in what he does and I'm extremely lucky that I met him and I recommend the eye clinic to anyone that has a problem.
P. P.
I have been suffering for 5 years in the past with multiple eye issues and could't find eye specialists who can really help to solve. Including normal way trough NHS. That was a very bad experience. But I am happy now and hopeful because finally I found Edgbaston Eye Clinic. I have been seen by Don Williams and He did all detailed inspection which was well comprehensive. I spent 3 hours there. Every minutes worth it. After the eye tests I got clear, understandable picture about my eye condition. Since that day He following me and try to help to get easy way next steps. Excellent aftercare. I am 100% satisfied and greatful. He is the best eye specialist I met ever and highly recommended to everyone.
A. C.
Don’s level of service and care is exceptional.
His knowledge is extensive and level of professionalism absolutely brilliant.
Don is extremely patient and clearly cares a lot about his patients, he was kind enough to check up on me after my appointment and kindly responded to my many questions so promptly.
Thank you so much Don for looking after me.
z. s.
Amazing advice help and support was given . I went to see mr Williams for some issue and he took his time to explain what test I would be having he was very helpful . I feel confident to know I been seen by one of the best optometrist in birmingham.
Y. c.
I have such a good experience there in the clinic! I was really afraid with my eye inflammation as it was really itchy and affecting my eye sight. So I called the clinic as this is the one closest to my place. I booked a same day appointment. Don was a really friendly and nice person. He gave me some treatment to my eyes. And my eyes are back to normal after 2 weeks!! Would definitely recommend this place to all my friends!
D. R.
As an Engineer I spend a lot of my working hours infront of a screen. For the past 6 months I have been suffering from soreness and gritty sensation. After visiting various high street opticians all I was told to buy was lubricating eye drops which I did, however nothing helped. I came to the midlands for work and by the end of the day, I almost couldn't open my eyes because they were that sore. A colleague of mine advised me to see this Consultant Optometrist in Edgbaston. I saw Don at around 8:00pm (after hours) and he picked up corneal erosion. Don gave me some Vitamin A cream and some preservative free eye drops with careful instruction and also advised me to 'tape' my lids together at night which I have been doing for 3 weeks now and for the past 2.5 weeks I have had no soreness and no grittiness! I am due to see him again over the next few weeks and I would have no problems driving down from Newcastle to see him. His explanation, advise and knowledge is second to none. Highly recommended.
P. W.
Just home with new distance and reading glasses, so excited to see so clearly. I had had a few problems with getting clear answers from the NHS regarding a Nevus (mole) on my retina. Not only is the man a genius as a consultant optometrist, who gave me the most thorough eye test I've ever had, he is possibly the gentlest, nicest, and most informative optometrist I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. No question was a bother, and each question was answered with care and concern that I understood what I was being told. Thank you Dr Williams.
R. L.
I have had the pleasure of working with Don Williams as a fellow optometrist in both private practice and at various hospital clinics. He can only be described as first rate in all respects. He is ruthlessly professional, has tremendous attention to detail, and truly cares about every individual under his care.
J. K.
Called 9.00am in the Morning and was seen the same day, as I had a problem with my left eye. On arrival was greeted by a lovely lady who showed me to waiting room. I was called through into an very nice large, state of the art consulting room. Mr Williams made me feel at ease, completed a very detailed examination, explaining everything as he went along. I will certainly be transferring myself and my family to this clinic and will be recommending to family and friends.

I had a appointment with Don after many unsuccessful visits around world,
After 1 appointment with Don, everything is done in 1 hour, just one word to say about Don, he got some magical skills
He is the best eye specialist in my experience,
Highly recommended 👌
T. P.
My eyes were so dry they were sticking at night and it felt like I was taking a layer off my cornea when I opened them, it was really painful. I had been to three opticians and the walk in at the eye hospital who just sent me away telling me to use drops that I knew didn’t work. I went to see Don and he showed me that I have corneal abrasions and an incomplete blink. He suggested taping my eyes at night and using vitamin A cream. I am so much better, 3 months on, almost back to normal. It worries me to think how bad this would have become had I just given up and accepted what the eye hospital told me.
v. y.
I had an eye test with Don recently. As an Optom myself I am very impressed with his excellent skill, knowledge & advancement. Don is truly an brilliant clinician.
Amazing facility with state of the art diagnostic equipment.
I am honoured & proud to have Don in the same profession as Optometrist
N. S.
Came to Don Williams when NHS delayed appointments caused me some concern. This course of action prove to be absolutely the right one, as my Glaucoma could not be left untreated. First class examination, and recommendations for future treatment. I would recommend Edgbaston Eye Clinic (Don Williams) to anyone.
D. J.
Absolutely fantastic ocular advice and service if any ocular queries arise and a second opinion required as I have 100% reaasurance Dr Williams an expert in his field will always give the perfect diagnosis and prognosis. Be reassured your eyes are the best possible care when you see Dr Williams.

I have worn spetacles virtually all my life (approximately for 62 years) and discovered in December that I have Keratoconus. I was recommended to Don Williams to have contact lenses fitted and can't thank him enough for making me see properly. Although I could pass my driving sight test my vision was really bad for long distance now I can see things over a mile away clearly. I am still wearing the lenses in but I can already see the benefit as now I can look at things at the side without having to turn my head which makes driving so much easier.

I went to see Don at the Edgbaston Eye Clinic for a 2nd opinion on a visual problem after getting no real answers elsewhere. He was very helpful, thorough and insightful. He diagnosed my problem, and explained the exact cause of my visual disturbance. He put my mind at rest. Would easily recommend. Many thanks.

I would like to say a big Thankyou to Don Williams. He has helped me in every way he can , always great and honest advice . Would recommend 100% he was accurate with his diagnosis and he has helped me even when discharged.

My optician picked up high pressure in both eyes, concerned I was then referred to the QE as an "immediate referral". 2 weeks went by , heard nothing then called by the QE mentioning between a 45 -55 NHS week waiting list !!! This timescale could/would have been catastrophic with pressure on my optic nerve.
As fate would have it, I picked up on a leaflet mentioning Don and his new practice near my office in Edgbaston. Don was able to see me immediately and went to work. After thorough detailed exams inc Visual field,corneal thickness and OCT of the optic nerve a referral was made to Mr. Sharma ( a regional specialist in Glaucoma) who managed to see me 2 days after.
To cut a long story short, (having had no pain or headaches) I am incredibly grateful for taking the "bull by the horns" and seeing Don when I did . This could have effectively have saved my sight. I am now under consultation using drops with the pressure under control. Thank goodness I took this step before damage to my optic nerve was irreparable. Thank you Don for all your professional help and ongoing assistance. Can't recommend enough.

I had been suffering from dry eyes for 2 years now with no explanation to what and why it was caused and no help provided I had been in and out of several opticians and specialists with no real significant help to the problem when I had finally found and come across don who was really helpful and identified the problem in seconds to what was causing it and helped get rid of the problem causing my eyes to go dry and also giving advice on how to help me get rid of the issue which I can’t be grateful enough about it was really affecting all aspects of my life and with don expertise he helped get my eyes back to as normally possible I can’t thank him enough as well as his manners and reassurance he is the best in the business with any issues with your eyes I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Went to see Don Williams to get second opinion about a problem than I had in left eye
I left with a correct diagnosis which has lead to further referrals to different specialists
I would not have received the correct diagnosis if I had not attended his eye clinic
Or had the other referrals for investigation of other issue responsible
I fully intend to return to Mr Williams when symptoms have had time to settle so that he can give me an eye test and a reliable further diagnosis and prescription for new glasses
Thanks for your expertise and very professional treatment
