Yeah, so far no complaints at all. It'll take a couple of weeks or so for my vision to settle down a bit and I'm taking about 3 different types of eye drops to prevent infection and dry eye. Also a wee bit light sensitive and get some glare from lights at nighttime, but that should go away after a wee while. At the moment I can definitely recommend it. The surgery itself only takes a few minutes and I could notice the difference as soon as I sat up afterwards (you're conscious throughout). To go from my old quite high prescription to near 20/20 vision (and hopefully better once everything has settled down) just like that is phenomenal. |
