i had considered laser treatment for a long time but was put off because i knew that i would still need glasses for reading. i finally went ahead with it because i could not see my daughters whilst we were swimming! i am really pleased with the results for my distance vision, it actually seems sharper than before, and it is lovely to be able to go out without glasses on etc. the only downside is i do need glasses at work as i do alot of close work, and it is annoying that i have to put reading glasses on to look at my phone(for texts etc.) but overall i am pleased i finally took the plunge!
