“I'm extremely pleased that I can see without contact lenses or glasses. I can have nights out and visit friends without worrying about contact lens cases or solution, a great relief.”
“Althought i was very apprehensive at first before surgery, 4 hrs after surgery i was able to see without pain at all which was soooo amazing.
I have received very good care and after care till now from Optical Express”
“I had the agressive surgery but had little trouble overall and would recommend to anyone. Can play sport better, feel much younger and overall would do it again but hopefully won't need too.”
“I decided upon Laser Eye Surgery after having problems related to contact lens wear. I had problems with chronic dry eye and corneal neovascularisation and did not want to go back to wearing glasses all the time. I decided upon Optical Express after my friend recommended them after having her Laser Eye Surgery. I found them very helpful and professional, the checks they do prior to surgery were very detailed and rechecked the day of the surgery so even the smallest changes were taken into account. The aftercare was also very good with checks at day 1, week 1, month 1 and 3 after surgery. The staff were so helpful and very knowledgable and the helpline were also there in case of any problems out of hours (although I had none it was very reassuring to know it was there!)
Would recommend this to everyone - feel it has made such a difference!”
“had been trying for years to have laser surgery with other companys,none of them said it was possible or worth doing,so happy iI walked in to optical express.Would of had this done years ago if I knew it was possible for optical express to carry out this wonderful treatment.”
“I feel very lucky to be able to see properly now without the aid of glasses. I had the surgery twice to gain the best results, it was real value for money. It has given me confidence as I was previously wearing varifocals which caused me to fall down the stairs and injure myself. I am delighted to be able to contiue to pursue my love of art and painting, sculpture and dress making with my new and improved eye sight. Thank you!!”
“From start to finish, the whole process has been extremely straight forward. My only (minor) complaint would be that I was not fully prepared for the discomfort after the surgery. However, it didn't last long!”
“On the whole my laser surgery experience has been good. Would recommend Optical Express. I don't think I properly prepared for the actual surgery and found it a little more disconcerting than I expected. The discomfort in the first 12 hours after the surgery was high. Scratchy eyes that felt tender but within 24 - 48 hours my eyes felt back to normal and vision was good. After care has been great.”
“Laser surgery was painless and has made a big difference in my everyday life. No need to reach for the glasses anytime I want to look at something. I've noticed the little things that make a big difference”
“Cant believe how well i can see now and not have to reach for my glasses to look at something, life changing really, so happy with it and wish i'd had it donw sooner!! Thank you!!”
“My eyes have been brilliant and the surgery itself, although a little uncomfortable, did not hurt at all.
I would do it again but I think I'd have liked a bit more warning about how bad they could feel after surgery. I felt like I had soap and grit in them for about 7 hours, had I of been prepared for that it wouldn't have been so bad.
HOWEVER, I would do it again as it's great to wake in the morning and be able to see without searching for my glasses or having sore eyes from having my overnight contacts in.”
