Can't praise the Glasgow clinic and Dr. Anwar well enough. I am about 7 weeks after Epi-lasek. The first 4 days you want to stay in bed and sleep just take your painkillers every 4 hours. After the lenses are taken our on the 4th day you will see a great improvement everytime you wake up. Driving standard after 7-10 days. I have used Co-codamol and Dromadol for pain which worked great. I chose Epi-lasek because I had the time on my hands and really didn't want the flap on my eye that never heals after Lasik! So I opted for more pain and longer recovery (epi-lasek)as opposed to Quick recovery but permanent flap on your eye and so more risk (Lasik). That's why for those that are below 5 dpt I would recommend to get Epi-lasek done. Lasik however is worth it for those who can't have epi-lasek done. My eyes were -3.50 and -2.25 with slight astigmatism on left eye. 6 weeks later they are one line passed 20:20 with my right eye slightly weaker. I have already taken my vision for granted so I haven't even noticed any more improvement, but there was significantly more improvement since my last check-up. I am very pleased and except of occasional grittiness I have no any problems. I can recommend Optimax to everyone who is still hesitating. I went to Optical Express and they would charge me £1490, for the same operation. My sister-in-law has to go there for re-treatment after she had lasik done there about 3 months ago. Thanks to the ebay option in Optimax more people can get this done in more than reasonable price. There's appointments that would otherwise be wasted so Optimax opted for giving it away in a discount price. Thank you Optimax and God for my new eyes!!
