“I got the jitters on the morning of the operation when I went through the 'what can go wrong sheet' and nearly left. Fortunately I stayed. The operation itself is not particularly pleasant but it is short and the staff were very reassuring. My eyes were grainy and difficult to keep open post operation. After a couple of hours it became painful like strong soap had been dropped in my eyes. Ibuprofen sorted this. I retired to bed with goggles on for the rest of the day and listened to music. The next morning I awoke, no discomfort, removed my goggles and reached for my glasses as I have done for as many years as I can remember. They were not there! I then noticed I could read the title and artist of a picture on the wall of the bathroom about 15 feet away which I had never noticed and would never have been able to read prior to the operation. Eyesight was 6/5 when tested the day after op and I drove my wife home as I had better eyesight than her! Wearing goggles and not showering properly for a week was a pain but I could not really be any happier with the results after the first 4 weeks. Every day I notice things that I have not seen properly for 40 years!”
“I'm going to recomend optical express to my frinds, the service provided was superb and I'm very satisfied with the laser surgury and the atention/check-ups afterwards.”
“Very happy with the consultation and the price I got, obviously its expensive but still not bad! Very nervous about the procedure, although not painful at all it is a little uncomfortable. Incredibly happy with the aftercare and the team here at Optical Express Cambridge!”
“Absolutely fantastic - highly reccommended. All the staff have always been efficient and helpful. The surgeon had a great sense of humour and all my questions were fully answered, even at scientific levels when requested. The results a phenominal at 20/12 with perfect healing after a month. The comfort is so much better than contact lenses and much more natural for doing both close and distant work. The finer details of the world are much clearer!”
“The results of surgery have been fantastic and the staff are always more than happy to answer any questions that I have and advise me as necessary as to what I should be experiencing during the recovery process. There were no surprises as the whole process has clearly been explained.”
“Fromthe moment i decided to have the treatment, the care has been great. Each step of the way the staff have explained everything in a clear and concise way and they have ensured i was completely comfortable with my decision before proceding. The results have far exceding anything i would have expected”
“I knew exactly what to expect before the surgery took place, which was down to the knowledge of the staff and the time they spent with me before the procedure. The procedure itself was quick and not painful - but a bit uncomforable which I knew to expect. The aftercare has been very good.”
