Well, here I am typing this with no glasses on! It's still very strange and I'm totally overwhelmed by it all! It's stunning to be able to see for the first time in my life. Anyway, you probably get how excited am I by now :-) I have wanted to get my eyes done for the longest time and spent the last six months researching in earnest. I went to a couple of other clinics first as I wanted to try out three - word to the wise, avoid Optical Express if your prescription is over a + or -3. Having been turned away, I discovered Accuvision. From the start they were efficient and very friendly. Not pushy at all. They agreed to take me on and I had my surgery last Wednesy 29th June 2005. I was +6.5 in my left eye and +5.5 in my right. The surgery itself was pretty yucky - have a valium! But totally painless and over very quickly. I could see straight away, and promplty burst into tears all over Mr Pandit who carried out the procedure. I had very little discomfort afterwards and apart from a little blurring, all is great. I am so thrilled I can't put it into words - Cloud 9 doesn't even get close. Went back the day after and am already 20/20 in my right eye! The left will take longer and may never be perfect as I have an astigmatism. I will check in again in a while to let you all know how my eyes have settled down. But if you have been thinking of having Lasik, go for it!!!! xxxx
