“I would recommend surgery to anybody. They go into depth about what happens during and after the procedure. The surgeon and the staff are very reassuring.
If you're thinking about, just do it.”
“i've had plenty of eye tests done and a lot of being told to keep my eyes wide open and not blink, harder than it sounds. overall though everything has been explained leading up to the initial surgery. After the surgery was a couple of days of discomfort and feeling like I had sand in my eyes but once that had passed I did start to notice my vision becoming clearer. Its now been about 2 weeks and my right eye is clearer than its ever been however my left eye is still healing.”
“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.”
“In the first few days after surgery I did find that I experienced quite a lot of pain particularly at night and had to resort to using the numbing eye drops quite regularly to get me through. Since day 4 my left eye has been perfect and have not had any pain or trouble with vision. My right eye however, has not been so fortunate. I am yet to have any time where the right can see anywhere near as clearly as the left and at timees really struggle to see much at all. This is gradually improving but taking a lot longer than expected and I am surprised that 2 eyes can react so differently. I am just hoping that the right becomes as good as the left which I am extremely satisfied with.”
“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!”
“I was really impressed with the treatment I received from Optical Express, amazed how quickly i recovered .. also the after care I received was brilliant, I have since recommend this to my husband, who shortly has his treatment”
“Despite what I say below, I would do this all over again, because having near perfect distance vision after wearing glasses and battling with lenses for years is worth it. However:
1. I wish just one of the people who recommended this to me had mentioned how unpleasant the actual sugery is. It's only 5 minutes of discomfort - not painful really, but stomach churning!
2. I am surprised by the extent to which my reading vision has deteriorated as a result of the surgery.
3. The glare/starbursts around lights at night are really noticeable and, after 3 months, not showing signs of getting better. I hadn't expected that. Moreover, I opted for the considerably more expensive wavefront procedure on the basis that it promoted improved night vision! Not the case for me at all - quite the opposite.
4. One of my eyes is better than the other, meaning that there is still room for improvement. A little disappointing, but not beyond what I might have expected.”
“From consultation to treatment the process was painless and efficient.
After surgery, I went home, had a kip for an hour or two and when I woke up I could see. Easy as that. My eyesight was about -2 ish in both eyes. I got the cheapest surgery going and this resulted in me now having better than 20:20 vision.
Stop wondering about getting it done and just do it!”
“I had a bit of discomfort due to dry eyes few days ago like itchy, slight pain and tiredness and the staff consultant informed me to use the blink drops more often as i wasnt that careful about using it...overall I am a happy customer and the service of Op Exp. is fantastic and i'd recommend...Many Thanks”
“Optical Express Reading have been very professional in the way all of there staff conduct themselves, very freindly and know what they are talking about.
Many thanks for helping me in the process to bin the 'bins'
Liam.”
“I feel glad I got the procedure done and would recommend it to anyone who can have it done as its made my life easier and I feel much more comfortable without wearing my glasses. I can now see my wee girl from a distance little facial expression of joy when she sees me which is just the best. I am looking forward to my future without my glasses. Thank you for making this possible.”
