I had my 'operation' only two weeks ago and haven't looked back. I picked Accuvision because two of my friends recommended them. I had a consultation with them and with Optical Express who advertise at £350 per eye. Actually the quote from Optical Express for the same treatment I had at Accuvision was over £3000!

Accuvision were great. The 'operation' was painless and quick, the worst part was the all in the mind. I was a wimp but the surgeon explained everything he was doing and the nurse held my hand. It was over before I could blink an eye - literally. The same evening I had the 'op' - I was in my local pub telling everyone how fantastic it was, I could see really well - no problem.

I was short sighted by -5.25 in one eye and -6 in the other. I had also needed to wear reading glasses over the last two years because of my age (I am 53). The surgeon corrected by eyesight in one eye for perfect long sight and compensated the other eye so that I don't need to use reading glasses unless the light is bad or the print is very tiny.

So for anyone out there who is dithering about taking the risk - GO FOR IT. you are worth it! I did.
