I had lasik surgery done by Dr Doyle on 28 September 2006. From the first time I met him at my consultation I felt a ease with him. He explained everything fully (even though a lot of it was a bit technical and went over my head)!! On the day of the surgery I was very nervous (so nervous that I had two double vodkas before I went in)! The actual operation was not enjoyable, it didnt hurt, it was just very bizzare. As soon as the op was over I knew I could see, which to me was a miracle as my prescription was -8.50 and -7.50 so to be able to see was very emotional. I went for my final check up on 9 December and was discharged with 110% vision in my right eye and driving standard in the left. I still get quite dry eyes and use my drops occasionally but apart from that everything is great. I am so glad I took the plunge and had it done. The staff at Optimax in Manchester were great and I would recommend it to anyone.
