I had bi-lateral LASIK at Reading on 7 February 2002. The procedure was painless and the staff were really kind and helpful. When I went back the following day I could read to the bottom of the eye chart much to my amazement. My husband and I were put up at a very good hotel. They are supposed, apparently, to refund your travelling costs but they have yet to offer! I am going back tomorrow (16.2.02) for my one week check. I have to say, I still can't believe that I can see without glasses/lenses and keep trying to take off my imaginary glasses before I get into bed!
