I had Bi-Lateral Lasek (PRK) at the Glasgow Clinic on 1st February 2003 by Dr. Anwar. (-2.5 Left + -3.25 Right). I was obviously pretty stressed out on the morning of the treatment but after my consultation with Dr. Anwar I felt much more relaxed as he explained what the treatment involved and answered all my questions.
The treatment itself was totally painless and Dr. Anwar talked to me all the way through it which helped immensely. My recovery was relatively painless (watery eyes the first night and bright lights proved a problem for the first few days). My right eye appeared to recover quicker however by the following Sunday my vision was excellent in both eyes. I had my check-up today and discovered that I was now slightly long sighted although this was normal and should settle down in the next few weeks. Next appointment 28 April 2003.
I had worn glasses and contact lenses for over 20 years and what a difference to see clearly unaided after that length of time.
I was highly impressed by Dr. Anwar and would recommend him to anyone. He has lots of experience (over 4000 eyes). I will write again after my next check-up in April.
Overall I am one Happy Chappy.
Happy to answer any questions.
