Now over six weeks since Lasik surgery with Mr. Gartry. I had my final check up today and also had an eye test last week for a second opinion. I can read the 6/5 line unaided with each eye which is an execllent result (apparently this is the requirement for a commercial pilot). My left eye is +0.25 (very slight over-correction) and my right eye is -0.25 with -0.25 astigmatism (very slight under-correction). Pretty much as near perfect as you could get considering I was -7.25 with -1.25 astigmatism in each eye before surgery. There are a couple of minor issues remaining; dry eyes sometimes particuarly with airconditioned offices but this is getting better by the day (I still use artificial tears a couple of times a day). Also slight halos at night but this again is improving. Mr. Gartry expects both issues to be resolved around the 3 month mark. I am also resisting using reading glasses until the 3 months is up although my optician reckons I will need very mild lenses for this. Unfortunately this is an age thing ! This is only a problem when my eyes are tired. Computer use and TV watching is not a problem at all.

I absolutely recommend Mr. Gartry and Moorfields. It costs more but you get the expertise and results. Email me if you would like more info or to talk.
