I had lasek surgery done on 01/02/05 at the newcastle clinic. Everyone there was very helpful and explained exactly what was going to happen. My appointment was for two o clock but there had been some problems on the morning so they were running late and it was about 4.45 when i went in for my surgery. I didnt have a very strong prescription so only needed the laser on for 17 seconds on each eye. The surgery itself was a bit strange though didnt hurt because even though you cant feel anything you can see what they are doing to you. I came out and felt ok then on the way home my eyes started to feel quite uncomfortable and by 7 o clock that night i couldnt open them and they were streaming with water. This lasted till about 11 o clock the next morning and since then everything has been fine. At my 4 day check up and 2 week one they said everything was fine and healing like it should be. I got one letter wrong on the bottom line of the letters you have to read. It was well worth the money and i am glad i had the surgery done.
