“The staff were very helpful and reassuring in what was a procedure I was nervous having done. It was much better than anticipated and I have had no problems since , other than occasional dryness of the eyes. The after care has been excellent and I would have no problem in recommending optical express to others.”

“I was considering having laser eye surgery for a long time and I thought now is the time to improve my vision, my eye sight was very bad and now I feel I can do anything without complication. On the day of the surgey I was nervous,but the staff very very helpful and kept me calm and talked me through what was going to happen. During the surgery I could not belive what was happening it all happened so quick and then I was in the recovery room. Only had minor discomfort for an hour after since then everything has been great apart from a little dry eye. 1 month after the surgery I have better than 20/20 Thank you to everyone in Optical Express Renfield Street!”

“It has been 2 weeks since I have had laser eye surgery. My eyes had a blood bruise which is now more or less invisible. I have nothing but good things to say about Optical Express, Cardiff. Patient care is phenomenal and nerves were non existent once I spoke to the surgical team. My sister has booked to have her eyes done next month!”

“I was amazed at how quick the actual surgery was. I was prepared to expect some pain and discomfort which was described to me as entirely normal. I was, therefore, surprised to find I had no pain at all and only once, did I experience a slightly gritty feeling in my right eye. My eyes did water considerably for a couple of hours, but after a short sleep, that too stopped. I can honestly say, having laser eye surgery was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thankyou!”

“Hi, this is the first time I am writing a review online about a product or a service but i feel I need to share my story with you all. I used to wear glasses and contact lenses since the age of 17. I preffered contact lenses then glasses. I was constantly ordering them online, going for lenses check ups, eye tests and buying solutions. Most frequently I suffered from red eyes from over weraing my lenses. I know that bad as I was always suffereing from dry eyes. My vison was at -4.00 and had remained the same for the last 5 years. I used to find that working long hours in the office wearing contact lenses used to make my eyes even drier because of the environment, I used to hate the fact that when I had to shave my legs I had to wear my glasses in the shower just to see what i was doing. I had to avoid using the pool, jacuzzi and steam room at the gym as the water and chlorine would irrate my eyes. I had to keep my eyes tighly shut on the rides at theme parks and on jet skis on holidays beacuse i was worried about them falling out. Basically I had come to the point in my life when i realised this is effecting my lifestyle. I had to do something about it! I always wanted to get laser surgery done but always had the fear of if something goes wrong. I was told its cheaper abroad but i didnt want to take the risk as its my eyesight. I knew at Optical Express I would be in safe hands. I decided to go for a free consulation at Optical Express. My eyes were suitable for the surgery. I was please that finally i was going to get it fixed. At the time i didnt have the funds to pay upfront for the surgery but I devised a payment plan which suited me and it was interest free which was great. All my aftercare was included and the staff were great. My consultation was in Leicester and my surgery was in Birmingham. I travelled up alone but then had my mum to pick me up. I would recommend that you have someone to take you home as after surgery your vision is very sensitive. You will have to wear sunglasses straight away as your eyes are very sensitive to light. I returned home around 9pm. I decided to have an early night as I had a slight head ache and red eyes. I then woke up the next morning and it was like magic to my eyes. Everything was crystal clear. I couldnt stop staring at everything. It was such a good feeling. My lifestyle started to be more easier as i could enjoy so much more without the worry. The aftercare apoointments went fine and were taken place in my own home town. The optician provided me with drops to keep my eyes moist. My vison is perfect. It has been 2 years since i had it done and its the best thing i ever done and would recommend it to anyone who feels they have been in situations like mine :) Kajal”
