I just wanted to add my comments to this site. I had Lasek on both eyes at the same time at the Croydon site with Dr Hoe on the 30th Sept. Six weeks on and I am so so so so pleased with my eyes. On the day of the surgery I was ok and had spoken to Steve who is on this website at the Croydon office as he had a check that day. I was really positive about the out come as Dr Hoe was lovely during the consultation. It was me who messed up with my nerves going to pot when I had my first eye lasered. I kept moving and the laser stopped about five times. When I had the other eye done I was more relaxed and the laser only stopped once. It was all completely painless. Like everyone writes, you can see whats going on but no pain is felt at all. I had two days with my eyes closed with lots of friends popping round to talk to me which was great! When I went back to have my contact lenses taken out I knew that the first eye I had done was not good - all I could see was a cloud the other eye was perfect. She assumed me it was still healing where my vision is. When I went back for my second check up three weeks later my eye had improved so much. It was still not as good as the other one but not by much. I had a slight haze when looking at print. She assured me that my eyes are still improving. Now six weeks on the haze has gone and I am so happy with how good my sight is - when reading things with friends my eye sight is better than theirs which is amazing. Im so glad I went a head and had it done. I went to optimax as a work colleague had hers done with them too. Thank you optimax I am 100% happy with how you have improved my eye sight.
