WAITING TIMES FOR PUBLIC OPHTHALMOLOGISTS

Currently, the waiting time for non-urgent patients is approximately 6 months.

FORMER PATIENTS
Pedro26 juni 2026 Excellent attention, from the receptionist to the assistants and of course the eye doctor, they all took care of my mother which such kindness. The treatment worked totally well and the follow up was perfect. I can really recommend this place.Godfrey23 juni 2026 They are very professional in their jobPaula19 juni 2026 I cannot recommend Dr. Javier highly enough. From my very first consultation, he showed an extraordinary level of empathy, professionalism, and genuine care. I was extremely nervous before both of my procedures, yet he always made me feel comfortable, informed, and reassured. He took the time to explain everything clearly and never made me feel rushed. His wonderful assistant, Juta, deserves special recognition as well. Together, they created an environment where I felt supported every step of the way. Their kindness, patience, and constant smiles made a huge difference throughout my journey. Dr. Javier first performed my upper eyelid surgery, and the results were excellent. Three months later, following his recommendation, I underwent bilateral cataract surgery with premium lens replacement. Once again, the entire experience was outstanding—from the preparation and communication to the surgery itself and the follow-up care. Not only is Dr. Javier a highly skilled surgeon, but he is also a doctor who truly cares about his patients as people. Feeling informed, safe, and genuinely cared for during a medical procedure is invaluable, and that is exactly what he and Juta provided. Thank you both for your exceptional care, expertise, and kindness. I am deeply grateful and would recommend your clinic without hesitation.Anes18 juni 2026 Helt igennem fantastisk oplevelse og yderst professionel personale og behandling. hvis jeg kunne give mere end 5 stjerner var dette tilfældet.Fran15 juni 2026 Incredible clinic. A super minimalist space with exquisite taste in art, where you can breathe calm and tranquility. Not to mention the people who work here, who are incredibly attentive and professional.Gunnar1 juni 2026 Kompetent, venlig og hurtig 😃Elaina28 maj 2026 I had a really positive experience at Copenhagen Eye Institute. The staff were kind, professional, and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. The clinic itself is also beautifully designed — calm, modern, and welcoming, which really helped put me at ease. I appreciated how thoroughly everything was explained and that there was time for questions without feeling rushed. Overall I felt very well cared for and would definitely recommend the clinic to others.Patrick11 maj 2026 I was recommended Copenhagen Eye Institute as I've been struggling with my vision in the recent months. I have been to your standard high street optician and unfortunately paid a dear price for glasses that I've never felt helped my condition. Upon arrival at the Institute I was warmly greeted at reception and with very little waiting time I received the most comprehensive tests I've ever experienced and all done in the secure and competent hands of the personal. There was no rush to conclusions and I got the pleasure of being also seen by one of the top eye specialists in Scandinavia for a second opinion. There was never any pressure to commit to the treatments on offer but a staged approach to the issues were suggested and I left knowing I was in good hands. The clinic is modern and the treatments available are cutting edge and I'm grateful that I found the Copenhagen Eye Institute and look forward to continuing my treatment with them. I can highly recommend their services. First class.
