My consultation and surgery were both carried out at the Optical Express clinic in Bristol.

I opted for the Lasik Wavefront with Intralase for my small short-sighted prescription.

I attended the clinic for my procedure yesterday at 11.00am and just over 24hrs later I have better than 20/20 vision and no discomfort whatsoever.

I was EXTREMELY nervous and anxious prior to the procedure taking place, but I can honestly say I needn't have worried about any aspect of it as it was completely painless and I didn't feel a thing!

My surgeon Tom Materman and all of the team at the Bristol clinic really helped to ease my nerves and demonstrated a very thorough and professional service and I could not be happier with the results. Having the Intralase method for the creation of the flap was definately worth the extra expense, and the surgeon even confirmed that this is a much less traumatic method for both me as the patient and he as the surgeon.

I would recommend Optical Express to anyone considering Laser Eye Surgery, and if a wimp like me can do it, anybody can.. there really is NOTHING to worry about!
