I have a spinal injury and use a wheelchair. I found the staff to be extremely friendly and accommodating, but the equipment was not disabled friendly at all. It was not an easy process doing the numerous tests and scans. Although the technology itself is amazing, I wish I'd thought more carefully about it before having it done. I've only ever heard great things about it, so it never occurred to me, nor was I told, that by correcting my short sightedness, my near vision would worsen. It has only been two weeks since my surgery and I'm only 30, so I am told it should improve. My mum has postponed her surgery as her near vision will definitely be compromised because of her age and seeing how I am struggling with it, she is not sure whether it is worth it. After I had the surgery, within 20 minutes the anaesthetic had worn off and the pain was excruciating for about 5 hours, although my eyes were fine after that. On a positive note, my long vision is fantastic and worth every penny. My one recommendation is to not rush into it without giving it plenty of thought.
