Day one post-op and oh my word it works! I have 20:20 vision and better. Optical Express in Shaftesbury Avenue, London can't be faulted from begining to end. I am leaving this review to reassure you if you are thinking of doing it. Don't get caught into reading too much about this simple procedure. I was getting confused whether to do it at Optimax and save some money and pay more at Ultralase for lifetime guarantee treatment. I am happy with my decision to go with Opitcal Express cause they have the best technology. Once you are satisfied with the laser equipment used and the surgeon just go ahead. After the op your head feels like you are recovering from a bad cold and this soon left ...

I had the treatment two days ago at the Trafford Centre in Manchester and now I can see perfectly! Many thanks to Andre the surgeon and all the staff there. The staff were very friendly and reassured me as I was looking quite nervous beforehand!
No pain/eye dryness involved during the procedure, I was kept well informed during the procedure (like what I would see e.g. "it'll go a bit dark now" ... not all the actual details, that might have freaked me out a bit!)
I had to change my 24 hour check up appointment to the Bolton branch because of the snow, this was easy to do and the Bolton staff were just as friendly and helpful.
Overall I'd recommend Optical Express to anyone.

In April of this year I went up to Bristol from Torquay for my treatment. I had Tom Matterman as my surgeon and I can't praise him enough. I did a lot of research before and after deciding to go ahead. I even watched youtube videos - I wouldn't recommend that, lol.
Anyhow, it took just over 10 mins to do both eyes and was a breeze, I was slightly nervous, but having broken down on the way up , got rid of the majority of nerves while waiting for the AA. You are explained everything and the drops are so good you don't feel anything. When you have had the treatment, your eyes feel sensitive to light, so you will need sunglasses. But there is no pain, just a bit of discomfort for a couple o ...

I had my surgery on the 14th Aug at Optical Express, Bluewater. I found the staff really friendly when I arrived and they really do put you at ease. The worst part is having to wait for your turn but you do get to speak to the Consultant before the procedure to answer any questions or concerns you have. I found the actual procedure totally painless and it only takes a few minutes each eye. My special thanks to Mr Osama Giledi the Consultant who really made me feel at ease, he talked me through the whole procedure and the nurse is also by your side for the whole time. After one week I can't believe how good my vision is, I would recommend this to anyone, I wish I'd done it sooner! Thanks ...

Excellent service and a perfect result. No pain although i was very nervous beforehand.The staff made me feel at ease. Cannot rate highly enough. I even got a discount which helped no end as the treatment is quite expensive! I did alot of research before deciding on optical express and feel sure i made the right decision.
All the best Nigel

Being 62 years old I was originally disappointed to learn, after my original assessment, that I would need reading glasses afterwards - swapping distance glasses for reading ones didn't seem like such a good deal.However, some months later I decided to go ahead - after all, reading glasses are a lot cheaper and wearing glasses indoors less hassle than out and about. My surgery was with Mrs Mcgraw in Southampton. The procedure was painless and straightforward, although somewhat stressful, not least trying to keep ones eyes totally still. The staff were generally helpful although on arrival I was parked in front of a television for half an hour with no further information - not good when you'r ...

I had laser surgery at optical express 2 weeks ago and I am very happy with it. I was very short-sighted, was -10 and -10.5, plus I had astigmatism as well. And now I can see perfect! The surgery didn´t hurt at all and only lasted 15 minutes, although I have to admit it was a bit weird to be wide awake and completely consious of what was going on. Anyway, the impontant part is the results, and I am very glad I don´t need to use glasses or contact lenses any more. I still can´t believe it when I wake up in the mornings and don´t need to look for my glasses any more! It´s amazing!

***4 WEEK UPDATE***
Almost a month on and my sight is superb. No dry eyes or halo's at night. I was treated by Mr Tom Matterman at Bristol Cribbs Causeway. I cannot rate this surgeon highly enough. You only get one set of eyes and boy was I apprehensive about having treatment. This surgery is life changing. For the first time in my life I can walk in the rain without steaming up!! Go for it.
If anyone is feeling nervous or unsure before booking a consultation please contact me and I will be happy to talk through my experience and answer any questions.
If you would also like a money off voucher please drop me a line. Please ensure that you do this BEFORE booking your consultation w ...

Six Month Update!!!
Almost six months in and I cannot believe how great my sight is. Any initial worries were completely unfounded and my sight is second to none. I cannot rate the treatment or the Bristol clinic highly enough.
The surgery was painless and my surgeon Mr. Tom Matterman at Bristol very professional and skilled. You only get one set of eyes. I was very nervous of what was about to happen. I had no need to worry and now have better than 20/20 vision!
The difference in just being able to wear sunglasses and walk in the rain without steaming up is fantastic! If anyone would like further information please do not hesitate to contact me by using the link from this posting ...

I had surgery carried out in April 2008 on both eyes by Optical Express in Inverness. Following surgery my right eye cornea displaced, so I contacted Optical Express and arranged an appointment. My plane was delayed and I was told I could not be seen, and would need to make another appointment. By the time I was seen for corrective treatment my cornea had been displaced for a week. Following this I was experiencing severe ghosting in my right eye. I reported this in August 2008 and an Optical Express optometrist recommended me for surgeon review for an enhancement procedure in my left eye. The surgeon review declared there was nothing to treat in either eye. In frustration I turned to the N ...
