I meant to post my comments after a week/month/six months but am just getting round to it 16 months after I had my op at Accuvision. I am totally satisfied with all aspects of Accuvision's service and the results. My prescription before the op was -9.5/-10!!! and I now have 20:20 vision. I am 45 and had worn hard contact lenses and then gas permeable lenses since I was 14. After 30 years of assisted sight it is fantastic to need no glasses or lenses. I had an initial problem with dryness for 6-8 weeks post op and used a gel supplied by Accuvision rather than drops. Now I don't use anything. I work on a computer, drive, go on long plane journeys and have no problem. Far from regressing my eyesight has improved since I had my check at 6 months.(I didn't have my final check until last week). Accuvision tell me (which I knew from before the op) that my eyes will probably become longsighted due to old age but that as regards my short sight I am like a "normal" sighted person. Incidentally I have no particular problems with night glare (which I was concerned about) In fact I know have less glare than I did with my lenses.
I also have a friend (who recommended ccuvision) who had the op 6 months before me. She started at -6 (with relatively thin corneas) but is now 20:20 and is very happy.
