I had both eyes done with LASIK (surgical procedure where they cut a flap your eye then laser it) at the FINCHLEY RD - Head office in London.

I had Dr Patel do the consultation and the surgery; he was very good and gave me all the options and also his recommendations.

It was a little strange having a flap cut in your eye but no pain really and the laser was ok - also a little strange smelling your eye get sizzled.

Recovery was very fast, I went home and slept all afternoon, but by the next day I could easily drive. And I was back to work on the Monday after having my op in the Friday – fantastic (some thing to remember if you don’t get sick days like me its better to spend the extra money and have faster recovery time so you don’t miss a weeks work)

I had to use eye drops for 1.5 months as I had dryish eyes but maybe also due to the climate as well.

Now all good – even the in the follow up with the optometrist she was impressed that I had such good eye sight. Better than 20/20 ( apparently you can get better than 20/20 as I found out 20/20 is able to read the 2nd line up on the chart and I can read the bottom line easily)

So gone are the contact lenses of 16 years and freedom at last!!!!!

Really you just have to jump in eye first and get it done ASAP.

Highly Recommended.
