From start to finish the whole thing has been brilliant. The staff at St. Albans are all so very professional but able to be friendly at the same time.
The best bit for me was sitting up after the procedure was done and being able to see the time on my watch without having to bring my wrist up to within two inches of my face! The result was immediate. And it continued to get better; I was driving again after 6 days and back at work a few days after that.
My eyes had always been very poor, the left one was -4 and the right one was a whopping -9! So to go from being heavily dependant on contact lenses to absolutely nothing has been great.
Pre laser surgery my routine was very regimented. I would sleep with my glasses within touching distance, have to wear them to get to the bathroom to put my lenses in, then I would leave my glasses in an exact spot for the evening, to do the reverse. My morning (and evening) routine is at least 10 minutes shorter now, which to me is 10 minutes longer in bed!
To anybody thinking about having this done, I'd say it's the best thing that I have ever done.
I'm now 33 and I've been wearing glasses since the age of 4, it feels like a life sentence has been lifted!
