I had been considering having my eyes treated for over a year and was recomended to Accuvision by a work colleague. My concerns were that my prescription was very high (-10 with -1 astigmatism) and that I have very large pupils. During the consultation with Vikash it was confirmed that with earlier technology my prescription would have resulted in being turned away, but it was possible to return my eyes to 'normal' vision without compromising the cornea thickness, however I might have glare from lights when driving at night. As this is a problem I already had with contact lenses there was nothing to lose! Vik was very patient, thorough and advised me of all the risks etc. which was important. Well I went ahead with the treatment! On the day I was very nervous, but all the staff, especially the surgeon Mr. Ayliffe, were patient and comforting. After the treatment everything went exactly as advised. My eyes were light sensitive and felt like they had soap in them and wanted to stay shut for about 4 hours. After 6 hours I was able to see reasonably clearly without those dreaded spectacles, and after a good nights sleep I was able to see clearly. My family helped me with the eye drops that were prescribed and they were surprised that there was no redness or sign of anything having been done to the eyes. At the routine test the following day it was confirmed that I now had 20/20 vision again; the first time in 25 years and a better result than I had hoped for. I am now planning a holiday where I will be able to swim etc. rather than sit at the pool side with my contact lenses in. I am now recommending this treatment and Accuvision to all my friends who are 'optically challenged' and only wish I had had it done sooner.
