Laser Eye Surgery Reviews and Testimonials
LASIK review by David Smith
Leasing Director
Date: 01 Jan 70
Procedure: LASIK
Location: Silverburn Shopping Centre, Glasgow
Since I was in primary four I have had very bad eyesight and have worn strong glasses all my life. At the age of 48 I decided to do something about it prompted by successful laser surgery my brother had. He made it sound painless and easy.
I went to Optical Express as market leader .
The professionalism of staff and clarity of explanation by the optometrist combined with very impressive testimonials in the visitors book meant I opted for treatment. I was with the surgeon for a total of 10 minutes and each eye took 10 seconds to treat. I had the surgery at 16.00 on a Monday and was back at work on a Tuesday .
The difference to my life after the surgery is absolutely amazing. I for the first time in my life saw my hair getting cut. It has made skiing, cycling, sailing etc much more enjoyable but not to be reaching for glasses first thing in the morning is indescribable. At no point in the procedure did I feel pain. In the week after the surgery my eyesight got better and better.
Understandably there is a fear of any procedure involving eyes and that is where good staff at Optical Express explain and put you at ease.

I previously used the Nidek system but found that the results were less than optimal in many patients. Since using the STAR S4 IR™ Excimer Laser System at Optical Express, I say with confidence that this technology is the best and out-performs any other system, including the Nidek. The results are phenomenal.
