    I STRONGLY recommend this clinic.

    I had -1.75 sphere on both eyes, plus 2 and 2.75 cylinder left and right respectively. 16 hrs after surgery I could see 21/20.

    The operation was 5 mins long and very interesting to "watch". I could actually see clearly straight after, but was asked to keep my eyes closed for 30min for obvious reasons (the eagerness was strong, I tell you:-). I used the drops as instructed. Minor itching. I was actually a bit negligent in the immediate post-op because I went shopping and staid up late. The morning after, they took the contacts off. Now, 3 days after, my eyes feel and see absolutely perfect. I'm even tempted to stop using the drops altogether.

    I think it's important to go for the best surgeon and trust him/her with everything else. Those of Accuvision have A LOT (Dr Rostron has a 25 pages CV!) of VERY RELEVANT and FIRST GRADE Experience.

    Accuvision's Allegretto Eye-Q 400's are very recent and advanced german technology. Note that Germany is home to companies like Zeiss (the best lenses), Leika (the best cameras), Leo Electron Microscopy (very advanced electron microscopes). Competitors of Accuvision were very vocal with me about their Visx S4's because they know a lot has been publicized about them out there. It's only because they are American and they have a strong market penetration there. But the situation has been changing rapidly since the Eye-Q 400 was FDA-approved in 2003 and a big part of the new machines sold there since 2003 are Eye-Q's. A clinic with weak surgeons will certainly try to sell how great and popular their Visx is.
