Was really apprehensive and the recovery was a little difficult for the first few days (Lasek) but very much worth it now. Was offered the £395 per eye treatment due to low prescription. Opted to pay extra for wavefront (extra £400 per eye) as wanted the best possible outcome.

For me, I feel it was worth every penny. Always hated wearing glasses and lenses and can now swim, play football, mountain bike etc without taking a lens case and spare glasses etc.
