Treated with PRK on 21st December at the Optimax clinic in Manchester. My eyes were roughly -3 and -2. The surgery experience was ok overall but I am still unhappy with the results.

I was told by the surgeon that bandage lenses were not needed, wrong!! I had to get a doctor out the night of the surgery to prescribe some proper pain killers. The tablets provided by Optimax were completely inadequate.

4 weeks later and I still do not have driving vision in either eye. Despite all the information available on PRK I still do not know if my eye sight will improve over time. Most people seem to be clear within two weeks.

I have a second check-up next month and I pray I do not have to go through another round of surgery.

Any comments on experiences of healing times appreciated.
