I had Ultra-Lasik to both eyes last Wednesday - after thinking about it for ages and ages, I finally decided to muster up all my courage and did it! I have been wearing glasses for 17 years and was -6 in both eyes with astigmatism - so I really was blind as a bat! I was so scared of anything to do with eyes and couldn't even wear contacts and was stuck with glasses. Anyway, today is the 6th day and it truly is AMAZING!! I have been so overwhelmed with the whole experience as I cannot believe I now have 20/20 vision and freedom from glasses! Thee actual procedure was nowhere near as scary as I had imagined, in fact it truly was very easy and very fast! There was no pain at all and I didn't feel anything. I was terrified of the 'speculum' which holds your eye open, but honestly, it was a walk in the park and I felt no pain whatsoever. The staff at the Leeds clinic have been fantastic, especially the nurse who helped me so much, she even held my hand throughout the whole procedure. I couldn't believe it when it was all done and I felt such a huge sense of achievement! There has been no problems whatsoever, no halos or glows that you read about, no streaming eyes, no discomfort. I have only slight bruising to the eyes due to the pressure which is applied during the procedure, but this will go in 2-3 weeks. All in all, I am sooooooooo overwhelmed that I can now SEE and would recommend it to anyone who may need it. It may sound cheesy, but honestly it is really the best thing I have ever done! Feel free to email me if you want any advice - as I found it really useful to ask a real person who had it done, and it really helped me to decide to do it!
