It has been a month since I had my surgery. It has been great. The staff at Optical Express, George Street in Edinburgh have been absolutely fantastic. Really reassuring when needed. The surgery was much better than I thought it would be and I was really surprised at how quickly I could see after the procedure - mind you, my legs were a bit wobbly and I thought it best to go back home to rest rather than have a wander around the shops with my friend - everything has a downside.

I have had my one month follow up check and am really pleased to find out that I have better than 20:20 vision. Why didn't I do this before.

Thanks so much to Annie Crowe, Susanna Boytha, John Pearson, Sinead Higgins and not leaving out Raymond McMillan - you've been fantastic.
