I attended at the Glasgow clinic on 26 October where Dr Anwar carried out my laser treatment. There was a lot of sitting about so I recommend having something to eat in your bag as I attended for an 8.30 am appointment and by the time I'd had the eye tests and the consultation (and waited for an age in between) it was 12 noon before I received my laser treatment and was hungry again. Although shaking with nerves I couldn't believe how simple and pain free the whole process was. I was given the option of having bandage lenses or patches and I opted for patches (one of which was clear so you could see). I was happy with this choice and although I was able to see with one eye on my way home this eye did close up soon after. Also, after getting home my husband went to collect the children and I gave myself a bit of a fright when I fainted! I did rely a lot on my husband for the rest of that day and the next as I couldn't do something as simple as tell what time I should be taking the pain killers. It was a bit scary not being able to see at all when I had the patches on so I advise you to think very carefully before getting both eyes done at the same time. Thankfully I did not have any great discomfort and didn't feel any of the 'gritty' feeling that I had been told to expect, hence I didn't need to take any of the sleeping tablets provided. Don't know if the fact that I stayed in bed and rested for these 2 days helped with this. I did notice that the vision in my left eye improved faster than with my right so patience is needed. I had my check up yesterday and have been told my vision is 20/20, although this could fluctuate slightly over the next few weeks. I'm one happy lady!
