I finally went ahead with my surgery on 24th March with Accuvision. (Decided against Centre for Sight for a number of reasons - see comments under their heading)
I am tempted to write Ditto, ditto, ditto, ditto because every positive comment I have read about Accuvision on this website is TRUE!!!! However I will be more specific for the benefit of the people I have promised. (by the way, thank you to all of you who contacted me since my first posting with all your encouraging comments)
I had -3 in both eyesand large pupils! I had wavefront treatment performed by M Rostron with all the usual team present (and a few spectators if I remember correctly) The procedure was painless and I am glad I didn't work myself into a state beforehand because it wouldn't have been worth it. It's over so quickly, there's no time to panic in there.
I'm delighted with the results(better than 20/20 in both eyes) and they have done such a good job of the flaps that 24 hours after surgery an experienced optician could not see the hinge!
The first few days were hazy and uncomfortable - very similar feeling to that of having worn your contacts for far too long! Each day got clearer and clearer and after one week my eyesight was fantastic! Night vision has also improved dramatically although that was slower in coming. Nothing left to say apart from thanks to all at Accuvision, especially Nick Dash who spent hours answering all of my questions!!
To all of you considering surgery - go to Accuvision - it may be more expensive than some of the 'high street' outfits but YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! You only have one pair of eyes!
