Am having Intralase Wavefront Lasik in Bristol.

The consultation is at 9:45am. How soon after will i have the treatment if i decide to have it on that day? I'm sure i read somewhere that it was two hours but just wanted to check.

Also can anyone advise what i will need to take with me. Obviously sunglasses but would anyone recommend something that they took or thought they needed?

Thanks and wish me luck!

Apart from the sunglasses and another person to help you home there's nothing much i can think of that will help. About an hour or so after the op your eyes will stream for several hours and you will be extremely light sensitive. They'll give you some plastic eye guards to wear in bed and if you manage to sleep much when you wake up things will be much better.

I had my consultations months before the op so can not advise on that part.

Just try and relax on the day. You'll be fine !

Good Luck

Joe

I think i am more worried as i have a 4 month old baby and no-one to help me out after i've had the treatment.

Do you think i should be able to see enough to take care of her?? Or am i totally mad
