1995 left eye done in Bristol. Excellent. Dec 2001. Right eye done by Dr Patel in Finchley Road, London. Disaster ! Was -0.75 before, now +1.00 !!!! I now have to return to the UK for a repeat op. incurring flight costs, loss of holiday (as had intended going to Italy) + it means that my 2 week holiday (when I had it done) was a complete waste as the recovery period ruined it. Also, I now wear glasses for the first time since 1995 !!!
I have real problems judging distances as the other eye is -0.25. I have accidentally bumped into the back of a few cars as a result of impaired distance judgment.
Their answer was "it says in the agreement that we couldn't guarantee results"
I agree to a certain extent. I would expect to be close to ZERO i.e. +/- 0.25 (after all, they do use a Laser!), but to go from -0.75 to +1.00 is taking the p**s!! - I will contact the national health standard on telephone 01823345993.

NOT VERY HAPPY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
