Here is a summary of my treatment:
I originally went to one of Optimax's competitors, but during the consultation I felt like I was on a conveyor belt, no real personal sevice and they avoided my "risk" questions.

Couple months later I went to Optiimax at Canary Wharf in London for a consultation. Very personal, very thorough and gave detailed explanation of my "risk" concerns. My mind was put at rest.
I then went home and did some Research on the consultants available and decided to have the treatment at Optimax in Finchley, London.

On 9/9/09 I had Intralase Wavefront Lasik Treatment in both eyes. I was short sighted and have astigmatism. Treatment itself was completely painless. Couple hours after treatment I had some discomfort, but never had to take the painkillers I was given.

Day 2 I had one bloodshot eye and it was slightly sore (felt a bit like a contact lens that has dried up).

Day 3 I had a follow up test...vision already the same as when I wore contacts.

Day 7 and vision is now 20/20. No discomfort whatsoever. Having treatment was one of the best things I have ever done.
Day 14 and I feel like I have experienced a miracle. daytime and night time vision is better than I ever had with glasses or contact lens.
Here I am 3 weeks later, all the sport I do tennis/football/golf is so much better with my "new eyes". I am really looking forward to going on holiday next month to a hot country, when normally I would suffer from dry eyes with contact lens.

November….just been on holiday and it was wonderful not to have to suffer from dry eyes with my contact lens. The clarity of my vision was really highlighted on my trip.

December and is fantastic how I can see all the Christmas decorations and lights so clear and colourful. On 20 Dec had my 3 month check up, both eyes confirmed at 20/20 vision and both have healed completely. Everything about this surgery has exceeded my expectations.

March, have just returned from a skiing trip. Once again having had laser eye surgery has given me yet more benefits. I was able to see the awesome view of the Alps in crystal clear vision for the very first time. And I was much better able to read the pistes and plot my journey, avoiding ice and other dangers. This was my best ever ski trip.

Haven't mentioned this before but I am also a football referee, refereeing in amateur leagues in Surrey. Let me just say I am having my best ever season, so much easier to make those decisions when your eyesight is 20/20. It's now April and enjoying the beautiful colours of spring.

It's now May and enjoying swimming in the outdoor pool at my health club, another activity which is so much better without contact lens.

It's now June and am really enjoying the World Cup, it's fantastic to be able to view the TV screen in the pub no matter how far away I am . Oh the joys of 20/20 vision.

It's now August and am still enjoying the outdoor life. Currently doing some football coaching with school kids at summer camp. Great to be able to be outdoors come rain or shine and not have to wear contact lens or glasses.

Having laser eye surgery was the best money I ever spent, and I will save money over the coming years by not having to buy glasses and contacts lens.
