I had laser eye surgery carried out at FOCUS Laser Vision two days ago and am already back at work. I am thrilled to bits with the results. Yesterday morning I looked out the window and could see number plates on cars 200 metres away – I couldn’t believe it. I now have better than 20:20 vision.

Dr Ali Mearza carried out my treatment and I thought he was extremely professional when I met him, and he filled me with confidence. For your info, I am 32 years old and my prescription was -5.25 in the left eye and -4.75 in the right eye. I decided to bite the bullet and go for laser eye surgery having messed around with contact lenses, glasses and prescription glasses ever since my mid teens. I spoke to a number of friends and colleagues who had had the treatment as nothing beats about people’s personal experiences. I decided that the technology was now so good and so low risk that I would do some research on who were the best clinics. This site was one of the best for customer feedback and after speaking to friends I went for two consultations: at Ultralase; and FOCUS Laser Vision. The things that attracted me to FOCUS were as follows:

- great customer reviews on all the web blogs including this one
- there are only two surgeons, both vastly experienced, so you know who you are getting
- flexible payment plan (I am paying for mine in 12 monthly instalments, interest free)
- lifetime treatment guarantee (i.e. if you eyes deteriorate at any time in the future, they will carry out the treatment again for free). I think only Ultralase also offers this service.
- price - not nearly as expensive as Ultralase (supposed market leader), plus they were offering a £300 off voucher for March 2010 when I was planning on having my treatment.

If you are thinking of having laser eye surgery, stop dithering and get yourself along to FOCUS for a consultation and see for yourself!

You will not regret it.
