i went into the clinic feeling blind as a bat, i couldnt see anything without my thick glasses,i wasnt nervous as everything had been carefully explained,after a few pre op tests i was called in for my surgery,i was talked through each step,i felt no pain or discomfort at all during procedure just a small amount of pressure,it took less than ten mins and when i sat up all be it a bit blurry i could see better than with my glasses already!!,the journey home was rather uncomfortable,my eyes felt like they were full of sand,i was advised to go home to sleep for a couple of hours which i did and by the time i woke they felt 80% better,by the next morning they were almost normal just a little sensitive to light,the drops prescribed really helped,two days after surgery i was back to my normal routine and driving,it still amazes me nearly a year on how beautiful things are around me, colours are so different,i read every day,when i couldnt see properly i used to worry i would eventually go blind and now i dont feel like that at all,i admire the world from new eyes,its quite expensive but there are easy payment options,dont let it put you off,it will be the best money you ever spend,thank you everyone at optical express and thanks to my husband for footing the bill!! oh and as for my glasses i dont miss them at all
