Had Lasik at the St. Albans clinic a week ago. I chose the clinic because of the surgeon, Mr. Vinod Gupta, who is reputedly one of the best and most experienced in the country. Well, he certainly did not let me down. He has done an excellent job with my eyes and my shortsight (-3.75 and -4.00) has gone completely. A week on, I can read the bottom line on the chart, better than 20/20. I have also been quite lucky with my presbyopia (I am 45 years old) and I have not needed to use reading glasses, except in very poor light conditions and for very fine print. And I am told this is going to get better over the next few weeks as my vision stabilises! Also, night vision is very good, very little problem with glare; this should inprove, too. I am absolutely delighted as the results so far have surpassed my expectations.
Many thanks to Mr. Gupta, and also to all the Ultralase staff who looked after me, both in Tottenham Court Road (initial consultation) and in St. Albans (treatment). They have all been absolutely superb, thoroughly professional and accomodating; nothing is too much trouble!
