5 month investigation, 3 consultations it was like a case of the X files but I opted for Centre for Sight.
Why?
1. I wanted a surgeon who I could meet to do the operation.
2. I wanted the procedure performed by an experienced eye surgeon just in case of any complications.
3. I was not overly keen on the knife way of creating the flap and so wanted the laser method that was ONLY performed here.
It was by the far the most expensive but I did not care. I have one pair of eyes so wanted to keep them in good working order.
The thought of the procedure worried me for months but the actual op took 10 mins was painless, which i am sure was helped by the valium provided.
Within 24 hours I could see clearly and my 1st eye test shows 20/20 vision. I have a slight redness to the eye and am due back again for a further check up in 2 days. Again I am reassured by the fact that I will be seeing an eye specialist if there are any issues/complications.
So glad I did it and no more fumbling for glasses or lenses. My prescription was -5.50 so needed glasses/lenses all the time.
Cheers
