It's now been over a month and a half since I had Wavefront Lasik surgery carried out by Dr Madhusudhan at Optimax Liverpool.
I was suitable for both types of surgery but I'd already decided on the Lasik option, less pain, quicker recovery, it was only the thought of cutting a flap which was freaking me out. The surgeon recommended Wavefront and explained that it would benefit my night vision. After reading numerous reviews of Dr Madhu telling people it wouldn't benefit them it was good to know that he wasn't just after extra cash :)
The Surgery was quick and fairly painless. In total it probably only took 20mins. Dr Madhu doesn't have much of a bedside manner but I cant compliment him enough as a surgeon.
The recovery wasn't as easy as people have said. In my case one of my eyes was slightly inflammed so it needed double drops every hour and a couple of revisits to ooptimax for check ups. I had 'gunky eyes' for 2 weeks because of all the drops I was putting in.
My vison was 20-20 straight after surgery and it improved to better than 20-20 after a few days.
I cant recommend getting your eyes lasered enough. It was great to go on a snowboarding holiday and not worry about lenses/glasses. It's great to wake up in the middle of the night and know what the time is without trying to feel around for glasses!
I think the price I paid was a bit steep considering the ebay offer but its only really inflated by the fact i had wavefront. (an extra 600 quid).
Laser surgery is a serious decision and shouldn't be taken lightly but in my case it's been one of the best decisions I've ever made.
