    Once again excellent service. I have increaing problems with cataracts and other opticians have just recommended new glasses which is expensive and not effective. Simon has referred me to have treatment which is so reassuring. Thanks Simon. I won't be going to any other optomotrist in future!

    Thank you for seeing me so soon following a GP referral Simon and for taking the time to explain my eye condition. I will not hesitate to contact you in the first instance, and not my GP, should I have any further problems. I can highly recommend your practice too for keeping us all safe with mask wearing and antibacterial wash. Your Receptionist was also very welcoming, thank you.

    Went to the optometrist due to new floaters in one eye. Got an appointment the same day at Simon Kleyn and had an extremely professional examination which included the impressive optomap camera. After discussion and a follow-up appointment a week later all was deemed ok and thankfully no further action is required. I was very impressed with the speed and professionalism at this practice, and all on the NHS. Will definitely use them again. Many thanks.

    I went to Simon as I got a metal splinter in my eye. (Occupational Hazard) Simon saw me the same day, the staff were extremely friendly, and Simon was well adverse at calmly and clearly explaining the situation. I am lucky in that I am not too bothered by someone digging something out of my eye, but it was clear to see that Simon is well skilled not only in his profession but extremely skilled in keeping people calm and clearly explain what has happened and what he proposes to do to resolve the situation, so there were no surprises. He even followed up personally the following day to see how my eye was healing which Is something I have never experienced and meant a lot to me. Whilst I hope I never get a piece of metal in my eye again, if and when I do, I will not hesitate and go straight to Simon.

    Simon and his team managed to fit me in for a same day, last minute appointment within a few hours of me calling them. Simon was brilliant and explained and diagnosed my eye problem and referred me to the Eye hospital (who managed to fit me in for an emergency appointment the next morning). Thank you very much to Simon and his staff.

    I can't express enough how fantastic Simon and his staff are. I went there with quite an unusual eye problem after having complicated surgery. Simon helped and explained it all so clearly to me. He is an excellent optometrist and optician, extremely understanding, kind, caring and passionate about his work and his patients. I highly recommend Simon Kleyn, I am so fortunate to have found him. Thank you so much for all your continued help with all my eye problems. 👍

    I needed to have cataract surgery on both eyes and this practice referred me to NewMedica at Ipswich. The whole process couldn’t have gone any better with the initial assessment and subsequent operations carried out within a short timeframe. I am so grateful to NewMedica and Simon Kleyn for improving my sight but also for the exemplary standard of care provided.
