Firstly, in this review, I wont be doing an in depth report on the technicalities, or the science bit.... Mainly because I am not a surgeon, and wouldnt want to get anything wrong. Ok, so for the majority of my life, I have been incredibly short sighted. If I sat with my laptop on my knee, I would need to wear my glasses. The only time i got to take my glasses off was when I was reading at night with the book about four inches away from my face. I have heard many things about laser eye surgery. Horror stories. *I went blind* stories. I always considered it far too risky to be a real possibility. A few months ago, my ...

To get straight to the point I am glad I didn't have Lasik surgery done! I had been curious about it for a while and decided to go for a free consultation at Optical Express (as I saw them advertising for approx £390 per eye). On the day of my consultation the staff were pleasant but I got the feeling they weren't completely sure what they were talking about and didn't have much experience. I had numerous amounts of tests done on my eyes including one where they put drops in your eyes to relax the muscles and dilate the pupils (which by the way leaves you unable to focus on anything and very sensitive to light). I was told I was an good candidate for the ...
